For those who were inspired by Justina Blakeney’s The New Bohemians and traveled with TASCHEN through the world’s best homes, here comes something unseen: beautifully designed houses in Iran. Peek inside the homes of artists, entrepreneurs, and architects in a barely known and mysterious country.
Have you always wondered how Iranians live? In Behind Closed Curtains: Interior Design in Iran, you will find some extraordinary examples. With vibrant pictures, it opens the doors to sixteen homes all over the country and shows what makes Iranian design and architecture so special. Along the line, readers will get to know the country, people, and stories behind the often closed curtains.
This book is the first ever covering the topic of interior design in Iran. No matter if you are a designer looking for inspiration or planning a trip to Iran, this book is the perfect introduction and for the 5 million expat Iranians, this is some nostalgia.
With love from Iran to the world.

Hi Lena,
The topic of the book is really fresh even for me as an Iranian Designer. I haven’t purchase the book yet but I think is not difficult to get it in China.
I have translated your introduction about the book into Persian and I have post it as my first writing in my blog. here is the address of my blog (I hope it is not against the regulation here, If so you can delete or let me know to repost my review)

Hi Lena,
Thank you for your impressive book. As an Iranian, I couldn’t explain the culture and traditional art and architecture of Iran so impressible as you present in your book. Nowadays, it is not easy to display a nice face of Iran to others who didn’t visit Iran and surrounded by terrible politic news from Iran. Your book is publishing the original picture of Iran. Thanks for your efforts and I wish you all the success in further steps of your life.

Hi Simineh!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am happy that you feel that the book is one piece of the puzzle towards a more authentic picture of Iran. Because that was our goal! All the best for you too.

Hello.
I hope you are fine.
I am Hamed and I was researching about the Iranian house and I got acquainted with you and your work under the title “Book Behind Closed Curtains”.
I am in Iran and how can I prepare or read your interesting book?
Considering that buying this book has become very difficult for the Iranian people these days.
Is it also available as an e-book?
I will send you my email if you want help.
Good luck.
Goodbye.

Hello Hamed,
Happy to hear that you are interested in the book. Unfortunately, there is no ebook version available but we some shops are still selling the book in Tehran. One of them is Comiran in Boutique Mellal. Hope you can find it there!
Best,
