Growing up, I was fascinated with art and numbers; this later led me to Architecture which is the combination of both.
I completed an Associate Degree of Architecture in Iran, the land of Art, Culture and Architecture.
My journey in Architecture continued to study at University of Adelaide, a Bachelor of Architectural Design followed by Master of Architecture.
I believe that Architecture is about places rather than spaces, where people can feel, live, and connect.
Since graduation, I continued exploring different feelings and experiences that architecture could offer through both residential and commercial buildings.
I have a passion for ecological and biophilic design where sustainability meets people and nature.

I was drawn to architecture at a young age.
My early childhood home was a four-roomed fibro cottage on acreage with an outside toilet near the chook house. I ran wild with siblings and neighboring kids through the vineyards and scrub. We built tree houses and cubbies, bunkers, and BMX tracks.
When my family build a new home on our property, I was hooked. At 10 years old, I started drawing plans and immersed myself in the construction process. I sanded skirtings, stained trims, and painted walls.
Over the decades I have watched the transformation of that house, from a combination of raw materials on a crudely cut sandy site to a home nestled so harmoniously within its bushland setting it’s hard to believe it hasn’t always been there.
The process took time, hard work, revision, and many, many iterations to arrive at what it is today.
It is the same for architecture. Understanding context is crucial to a beautiful and seamlessly functional home. How you live, your interests, familial heritage, and the spaces you like to use, form part of the story. But having a vision for what is possible over time, is what makes buildings and spaces sing.
My journey to architecture has taken time, hard work, and many life iterations. All of which furnished me with a keen ability to see what is possible through gathering and weaving the contextual threads to create spaces that are, unique, unpretentious, and effortlessly adaptable.
