Considering Design as an academic discourse, English publications on “Design in Iran” or “Iranian Design” are rare.

Do you think initiating diasporic discussions on Design can cultivate an awareness of “Iranian Design” as a concept?

Is there any notion or potential in your industry or professional community for exploring Iranian Design?

Can such a debate create economic, cultural, or professional values for you? And would you support it?
