The design scene in Tehran after the sanctions

I met designers, artists and architects in their studios in Tehran in May 2016. My report on the art and design scene after the lifting of the sanctions in 2015 appeared in a 16-page feature in Disegno #11 (September 2016), with photographs by Sima Dehgani.

A research interview with Azadeh Zaferani, the founder and director of Platform 28 for Art and Architecture, a non-commercial space in Tehran’s downtown district, is available online at DisegnoDaily.
