The Mizani Building is a market hall located in District 12 of Tehran, Iran, representing a blend of Qajar and Pahlavi architectural traditions. Constructed from brick, cob, plaster, and tile set in lime mortar, the structure exemplifies the material practices of its era. Designated as an Iranian National Heritage site, the Mizani Building stands as a significant example of commercial architecture from a transitional period in Iranian design, when traditional Qajar forms gave way to modernizing Pahlavi aesthetics.
