- Artist Statement
OWRON Studio : "We, Ali Baghizadeh and Aramdokht Jabbari, Architectural & urban designers, and Artists, are the founders of OWRON Studio. with the motto, “Our Work Represents Our Name,” believe that architecture is not merely about construction; it is about creating or discovering the flow of life, which for us, is an embodiment of art that can lead to the creation of a world that evokes emotions, memories, movements, and spirit. Every project we undertake begins with a blank canvas — an open space where ideas grow freely, unbound by traditions. Each design is an opportunity to transcend conventional boundaries, to create spaces that are not only functional but also innovative, creative, and forward-thinking. Our work extends beyond architecture as a mere structure, as we seek the human and intellectual dimensions that bring spaces to life. Each project is a dialogue between time, space, and humanity, challenging each element and seeking a deeper understanding of how space interacts with its inhabitants—our goal is to create a new world that challenges thinking, transforms perceptions, and reminds people that the world around them can always be more than what it appears to be. At OWRON, every project is an invitation to explore endless possibilities and experience a world where the future takes shape in the present."
What inspired you to start creating art?
OWRON Studio : "For us, art has always been more than just an aesthetic activity; it’s a platform for integrating emotions, ideas, and stories in various forms. Our early experiences in artistic pursuits such as music, writing, painting, and singing were the first steps in an endless quest to create our ideal world— a journey that later found deeper and more complex meaning in the realm of architecture. Architecture, to us, is beyond building, volume, and mass; it is a living artwork that composes poetry with its lines, touches memories through its textures, and reveals the spirit of space through its light, unrestricted by any scale. Each project is an endeavor to create a world where function and feeling converge in poetic balance. At OWRON, this creative and interactive dialogue continues. Each design is a fusion of artistry, architectural precision, and philosophical insight—a bridge of ideas, emotions, imagination, and innovation that extends beyond conventional boundaries."
OWRON Studio’s journey reflects a profound understanding of art as a bridge between emotions and ideas, transforming architecture into a living poetry that transcends mere functionality.
what is the core message you want to convey through your work?
OWRON Studio : "At OWRON, design is a journey beyond the familiar. Our work emerges from the desire to transcend the conventional boundaries of the lifeworld and redefine its essence. We view creation as an act of freedom—a process that elevates imagination without constraints, crafting spaces that challenge traditional perceptions and transform human experience through reimagination. We see each project as a canvas for integrating forward-thinking insights with timeless artistic expression, characterized by the spirit of art and architecture, where its character speaks to individuals. In this realm, architecture transcends what is typically imagined, evolving into a dynamic narrative and a form of life flow where emotions and ideas interact. Our message is limitless potential: to build is to dream and to design is to have the courage, both in pursuit of life’s flow. Every line we draw and every space we create is an invitation to be courageous in dreaming and bold in creating. Our design is like a journey— a journey that liberates the mind and elevates from a world filled with pain and suffering towards its ideal space, offering new ways to see and experience a liberated world, and reminding you that the world around us can always be more than what appears to be reality."
Their work challenges traditional perceptions, reminding us that architecture can be a bold act of freedom and imagination, inspiring a redefinition of how we experience and interact with spaces.
What is a memorable moment in your art journey?
OWRON Studio : "The most influential moment in our creative journey was when we chose independence over compromise and getting stuck in the routine path of life and work. After encountering injustice in traditional offices and facing limitations imposed on young designers and creative thinkers, we decided to carve our own path, move beyond restricting environments, and trust in the power of our vision. What followed exceeded expectations— within months, our designs resonated globally and earned prestigious awards. This journey reminded us that true success lies in the courage to pursue your unique vision, even when the path ahead is uncertain and uneven."
Choosing independence over conformity highlights their courage and commitment to innovation, proving that true creative success comes from trusting in one’s unique vision.
What advice would you give to someone starting out in art?
OWRON Studio : "To those who have just begun their journey in art and architecture, we say: Have the courage to be different even if you are forbidden by others, and create your own unique path - don't fear the less-traveled roads. The world is full of people who follow others, but you must have the boldness to be extraordinary, pursue your dreams with unwavering determination, and never let doubt steer you away from your path. This journey is filled with many challenges, so in the darkest moments, when everything seems to be falling apart, remember: diamonds are created from the pressure of rocks and time."
Their advice to embrace individuality and pursue uncharted paths is a powerful reminder that creativity flourishes through resilience, boldness, and an unwavering belief in one’s dreams.
What aspect of your creative process is most important to you?
OWRON Studio : "The most important part of our creative process begins with a blank canvas— ideation. In this space, we free ourselves from the chains of the limiting thoughts of our time and the past, allowing ourselves to dream freely, challenge traditional concepts, and envision spaces that are not just functional, but also create profound transformations within humans. It is in this particular moment of the creative flow that the essence of each project is defined, where innovation intersects with perspectives, and every possibility is explored. This stage sets the tone for the entire journey, transforming abstract ideas into meaningful experiences and laying the groundwork for architectural creations that resonate at a deeper level."
Their emphasis on ideation as a transformative step underscores the importance of freeing the mind to explore limitless possibilities, where each project becomes a journey of profound discovery and innovation.

Their dedication to redefining architecture as a living art form challenges conventions and inspires new ways of thinking about the spaces we inhabit.
