Ariane Shirvani (b. Tehran, 1984 ; lives and works in Berlin) graduated with an MA of art in design and interior from Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan in 2015.

The designer explores how nature and science can shape the man-made world. She employs different techniques to investigate the very nature of things in our natural surroundings. Her work focuses on sensory-perceptual experiences in order to raise environmental awareness. To translate natural phenomena such as reflections and sounds into physical objects, she examines elementary substances and ordinary materials like glass, metal, or yarn to create the final result.
