Guyim Vault House is a two level residential concept-home which features dome shapes which utilize Chahartaq design elements. The home uses cubed sections which are fashioned in the shape of domes to create separate areas. The home was a winner of the "House Future Project" award at the 2018 World Architecture Festival.
The plan for the home was to blur the lines between the home's interior and exterior. The home was designed as contemporary architecture with traditional Iranian architecture elements. It was designed making use of the chartaqi style which is a system of arches used in many Iranian structures.[2]
