IAAC Opening Lecture for the Academic Year 24/25 – Nader Tehrani
Nader Tehrani is the founding principal of NADAAA, an interdisciplinary practice with a body of work in infrastructure, urbanism, architecture, and installations. For his contributions to architecture as an art, Tehrani is the recipient of the American Academy of Arts and Letters’ Arnold W. Brunner Memorial Prize, the highest form of recognition of artistic merit in the United States. He is also the recipient of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Design, and the Design Visionary by Cooper Hewitt and the Smithsonian Museum of Design National Design awards. Tehrani is also the former Dean of The Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture at The Cooper Union. The works of Nader Tehrani have been widely exhibited at MOMA, LA MOCA and ICA Boston.
Based in Boston NADAAA has evolved over three decades as a multi-disciplinary practice dedicated to bridging design disciplines; from landscape to urbanism, architecture to interiors, and industrial design to furniture. With an eye towards integrated thinking, we enter the discourse on technology, aesthetics and building protocols as part of a holistic process, Rather than focus on typology NADAAA’s portfolio is built on process, with examples of institutional, academic, housing, commercial, retail and civic projects.
