Wrong economic developing policies over the past decades in Iran have led to the destruction of natural resources and ecosystems. Over the centuries, the inhabitants of this clever land have achieved a balanced lifestyle accordint to its arid and dry environment. Sistan and Baloochestan province and Chabahar in south of Iran is suffer severely from unbalanced developmental plans and endeavor so hard to preserve their sustainable and local way of living. In designing the Chabahar Free Zone Headquarter, it was important to sustain all aspects of the project. Here, sustainability has two levels of meaning: first, environmental sustainability, and second, the sustainability of human resources who use the building as forces of a bureaucratic system. In the first stage, our planning for environmental sustainability was redefining the vernacular themes which have affected the local architecture of the region for many years, and in the second stage, the organization and solution of architectural elements in the design, direct the strategic planning in order to increase environmental productivity.
