DOLMEN HOUSE

The Dolmen House project began in early 2021, when a young family approached us with a vision for a home that would embody strength, permanence, and a deep connection to Armenian heritage. Drawn to local stone and minimalist geometry, they sought a timeless, grounded living environment. Over six months of design development, the concept of the “dolmen”—a prehistoric stone structure—emerged as both symbol and architectural anchor. Construction began in early 2019 and concluded in late 2022. Throughout the process, the clients prioritized functional comfort, durable materials, and spiritual resonance with the land. The result exceeded expectations, becoming a physical reflection of their values. Dolmen House has since sparked community dialogue around contemporary expressions of Armenian identity in architecture. Its bold form and sensitive materiality have positioned it as a quiet landmark, inspiring others to explore culturally rooted design.
