The path Mardi has followed towards becoming an accomplished and innovative multidisciplinary designer has been a long and unexpected one, with many surprising curves and detours along the way. It’s taken him to almost all four corners of the world, and allowed him to gain experience in virtually every area of design.

During a visit to a watch design studio, Mardi was hit by a bolt of creative lightning that ignited his desire to explore the inner workings of the design process in greater depth. He pursued and completed both a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Industrial Design, and began a career that has touched on everything from photography and illustration to interior and exterior design to product and furniture design – and everything in between.

A firm believer in the value of sharing one’s knowledge and inspirations, Mardi has also taught on the faculty at the Art University of Tehran, and at the Azad Art and Architecture University in Iran. Currently, he’s guiding Industrial Design bachelor’s degree students at Toronto’s Humber School of Applied Technology.

Mardi is happy to report that his path has finally led him to an exciting position with Perennial Inc., in Toronto, where he currently devotes his considerable talents full-time.
