The Girls' Vocational School in Tehran's District 12 is a concrete structure completed in 1935 by architect Vartan Hovanessian. Built during the Pahlavi era, the building exemplifies a hybrid approach combining elements of Pahlavi architecture with the International Style, reflecting Iran's modernization efforts in the early twentieth century. Recognized as part of Iran's national heritage, the school stands as a significant example of vocational education infrastructure from this transformative period in Iranian architectural history.
