I’ve paid attention to details since my childhood and it’s been always a question for me:”what’s the fountain of differences in the productions we use?!”. I always loved the linkage between art and industry. Thereafter, I realized that industrial designing can take me to where I could create these differences myself. The legends of my life were not actors or football players but the designers, and I always wanted to be like them.

I’ve paid attention to details since my childhood and it’s been always a question for me:”what’s the fountain of differences in the productions we use?!”. I always loved the linkage between art and industry. Thereafter, I realized that industrial designing can take me to where I could create these differences myself. The legends of my life were not actors or football players but the designers, and I always wanted to be like them.

From mind identity which is achieved by evolution of idea expansion.

Attitude of the designer/ designing company (identity).

Emphasizing the identity of the brand over temporary factors and interest rates

Our team starts with drafting a subject. Then, in a procedure which starts with gathering information, continued by inspecting thousands of factors and considering dos and don’ts, it’ll attain the output for the design strategy. Finally, in respect to the intended identity, they present the design.

I wake up at 9 o’ clock in the morning, have coffee and biscuit and after taking a shower and getting dressed, I head for the studio. At the studio, I start discussing on designs with my partner. While working, I have compact and high-energy foods. At 9 o’ clock I go back home, listen to music and follow the news on new sciences and technologies, read books and prepare my equipments for the next day. Then, I get to sleep.

Avoid the stereotypes and make the special method of your own but in law-abiding framework. Try not to be like anybody, you’re unique.
