As opposed to the almost cult-like status that the West has afforded to architects over recent years, professional architects in Iran, as this thick reference suggests, are yet to be caught up in the same wave. Nevertheless, this group is responsible for a constant, unique and dynamic evolution of the built environment in their land as this thorough survey testifies. Here, presented in order (and respect) of age are 114 fine practitioners, professors, theoreticians and writers of architecture, and their respective works. Each is afforded a one page photograph of themselves, accompanied by short bibliography and, where relevant, two pages containing images, in the form of plans, details and photographs, of their major contribution to Iranian architecture.
