If Atelier was founded in 2023 as a Tehran-based design and research atelier. Conventional problem-solving is expanded upon by the practice of this atelier; existing narratives are dived deep into so that the status quo and the standard architectural brief can be challenged.
By grounding the process in the speculative question—"What if?"—architectural constraints are transformed by if atelier into possibilities for innovation and the crafting of spaces. This allows the obvious to be moved beyond, while latent potential is uncovered.
