Hadi Teherani

Hadi Teherani was born in Tehran in 1954 and grew up in Hamburg. As a designer he is extremely productive, diverse and internationally acclaimed for his work. His work is carried out regardless of borders, crossing both nationalities and disciplines. His projects focus on atmospheric charisma, emotional urgency and ecologically sound sustainability, which he takes into account in the product design.

Germany's first "green" train station at Frankfurt Airport and Cologne's "crane houses" on the banks of the Rhine River are some of his international projects that have become effective landmarks. Other metropolitan cities for which he has prepared plans include Abu Dhabi, Berlin, Dubai, Hamburg, Istanbul, Copenhagen, Rome and Tehran, as well as Moscow and Mumbai. In late 2020, Hadi Teherani was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany for his achievements in architecture and design.
