Landscape is universal. While environments may differ dramatically in some places, they often share surprising similarities with others. Ayeh Azarbashi, Senior Landscape Architect at ASPECT Studios, shared her journey with Terren Jiatong Shi in a recent interview, alongside two others, about applying their knowledge and international experience to the Australian built environment.
The use of water in the Shazdeh Mahan Garden in Kerman province, Iran is a key feature of the landscape.

Drawing from her studies in architecture and landscape architecture in Iran, Ayeh discusses how her diverse background can contribute to the Australian landscape industry. "Landscape practice in Iran is deeply rooted in the Persian garden tradition," she notes. "Design principles that focus on water efficiency, shade provision, and aesthetic harmony have the potential to inspire sustainable landscape design in Australia."
