About StudioKargah
In 2001, StudioKargah was founded by Aria Kasaei & Peyman Pourhosein. It began its activity as a small basement Graphic design studio in Tehran's city center. Today, they have become a mid-sized independent studio that collaborates with cultural institutes, galleries, cultural foundations, and museums in Iran and worldwide.
Studiokargah has a flowing and multidimensional life form that exists on three notions: Home, Lab, and Factory. It is an autonomous ecosystem based on creative ideas, research, design, and implementation. Studiokargah attempts to collect, classify, archive, and curate documents and artwork from the history of Iranian graphic design to prevent them from being erased and forgotten.
They believe that the capacities of the art history, literature, and eclectic urban culture of today's Iran and the region can be used to create a contemporary visual language.
