Where were you born?
I was born in Iran, city of Esfahan.
How did you get into interior design?
My dad is a furniture designer/millworker, so I grew up playing with woodblocks in his workshop. Ever since those early memories from my childhood I had a fascination with the way building mass occupies the space and affect the user behaviour/surrounding. My fascination with interior design started once I started to explore the relationship between architecture and social justice!
What class in school has proven to be the least useful?
I started my education with a few confusing years as an electrical engineering student at SFU, so I’d say computer science classes. Not my thing!
