Lena, who grew up in Germany and currently resides in Spain, first became acquainted with Iranian interiors during her Middle Eastern Studies exchange in Tehran. She was instantly drawn to the deep heritage and architectural mastery of the buildings that surrounded her - the contrast between grandeur and simplicity along with the natural materials, earthy colors and elaborate designs made a big and long-lasting impression. When Lena decided to leave her full-time job in Barcelona two years ago, she knew her path would lead her back to Iranian culture and design. “It was important for me to tell the stories of Iranians - the people behind these houses - and explain Iranian culture along with the design elements,” she says. “A book on beautiful, private places would also draw attention away from politics and onto design and architecture - it would illustrate a positive and especially human face of Iran.”
