Sepanta
Sepanta is a multifunctional hall designed for music, theater and opera on Kish Island. The form is inspired by the shells of the turtles that nest along the nearby coast. A smooth wavy surface recalls ocean waves and is made of glass fibre reinforced concrete. The suspended curved ceiling is built with space structures and rests over a glass curtain wall that opens the interior to the sea view. Triple glazing and a three layer ceiling reduce energy loss. The hall covers nearly 6000 square meters and seats about 1350 people.
Sepanta Multifunctional Hall by Amin Naimi has been identified as a creative illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition.

The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is a highly prestigious international design accolade which rewards outstanding design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
