IN COVERSATION WITH MOEEN AFZALKHANI AND ZAHRA AZIZI
A practice rooted in artistic thinking, together with rational problem solving, Akaran (ɑːkarʌn) meaning boundless, never ending, non-peripheral, endless, infinite, originating from the Persian word “bikaran”, is an architectural practice with a rich narrative. For them, it is not a signature style that matters; it is rather the essence of the created space and the continuation of an intriguing spatial dialogue within an environmental, political, social and cultural context. They see architecture as an extension of life, of the everyday, the individual and a collective experience of space.
