Description
The programme comprises a range of interventions in several of the historical cities of Iran, aimed at encouraging a process of market-driven urban regeneration. Building on a joint process of documentation and research of the historical urban fabric in these cities, a number of houses and public buildings have been acquired, restored and sold or let to new owners or tenants who have identified new uses for these buildings.
