This has, however, remained largely unrecognised internationally, as architects in Iran have had little exposure in publications abroad and the diaspora of well-known Iranian designers working in the West, such as Hariri \u0026amp; Hariri and Nader Tehrani of NADAAA, are not necessarily associated with their cultural background. Moreover Iran, or rather Persia, has one of the richest and longest architectural heritages, which has a great deal of untapped potential for contemporary design. The intention of this issue is both to introduce key works and key architects from a range of generations – at home and abroad – and to highlight the potential of historical structures for contemporary architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFeatures Hariri \u0026amp; Hariri, Nader Tehrani of NADAAA, Farjadi Architects, and studio INTEGRATE.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlaces the spotlight on emerging practices in Iran: Arsh Design Studio, Fluid Motion Architects, Pouya Khazaeli Parsa and Kourosh Rafiey (Asar).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContributors include: Reza Daneshmir and Catherine Spiridonoff, Farrokh Derakhshani, Darab Diba, Dr Nasrine Faghih and Amin Sadeghy, Farshad Farahi, Mehran Gharleghi and Michael Hensel.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLooks at garden and landscape design as well as the urban fabric in Iran from a historical and contemporary context.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes articles on the work of post-revolutionary architecture.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Hensel\u003c\/b\u003e is an architect, researcher and writer.
