AbarStudio

Abar Studio is a Tehran design practice founded by Saber Abar, an Iranian actor, theatre director and photographer who came to furniture and interiors from the performing arts. The studio works across furniture design, interior design and the renovation of old houses, offering decorating, furnishing and interior services alongside pieces created in collaboration with other artists.

Each work is described as limited and “one of one”, made by two or more hands and conceived as a way of bringing a hidden layer of life into everyday spaces. The practice’s stated values centre on collaboration as a blend of individual and collective creativity, and on the idea that any structure can speak: that objects, like bodies on a stage, carry thousands of things hidden and unsaid.
