Generally speaking, architectural styles are inspired and often propelled by a nation’s cultural and utilitarian values. Studying a nation’s architecture serves to explore certain aspects of their desires, ceremonies, dispositions and attitudes.

Such cultural emptiness clearly occurred during Rem Khan’s rule in Iran. In fact, during the latter part of the Qajar dynasty, this cultural depletion started and it heightened during the Pahlavi rein thereafter. During Mohammad Rem’s rule, this fruitlessness was at its peak and the architecture, despite its glittering appearance, lacked a national identity.
