Friday Five with Nastaran Mousavi
Born and raised in the small Iranian city of Sari surrounded by the Alborz Mountains and the Caspian Sea, architect Nastaran Mousavi grew up appreciating the vast differences between the rich natural landscape and the heavily populated city. With a houseful of architects, it’s no surprise that it’s the career she landed on as well. Mousavi earned her undergraduate degree in Architectural Engineering from the University of Tehran before moving to the United States in 2011 to study for a Master of Architecture degree at the California College of the Arts (CCA). She remained in San Francisco after school and co-founded Studio BANAA, an architecture practice focused on innovative urban infill and adaptive reuse projects for real estate developers, local businesses, and community organizations. The firm is also a certified Woman-Owned San Francisco Local Business Enterprise (Micro LBE). Over the years, Mousavi has taught architecture for the Young Artist Studio program and undergraduate students at CCA, while also acting as a guest reviewer at Academy of Art University, CCA, and UC Berkeley. Today, she joins us for Friday Five to share places, designs, and things that inspire her. Photo: Esghali Iranmanesh
