The Iran Post Honeycomb Building is a post office completed in 1969 in Tehran's District 11, designed by architect Abdol Aziz Farmanfarmaian. Constructed of concrete, the structure exemplifies Pahlavi-era architecture, the modernist style that flourished during Iran's mid-twentieth-century development under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. The building's distinctive honeycomb nomenclature likely references its formal or structural composition, though its specific design features remain understudied in English-language architectural literature.
