July 8, 2009 (San Diego)--Architect Simi Razavian will demonstrate how people of Tabbas, Iran used micro-climate and local materials to create energy-efficient homes. She will illustrate how they used sun, wind, and water, along with thermal mass to create not only zero energy consumption buildings but also private and comfortable homes.

 

 Razavian has a Master of Science in Architecture & Urban Design with an emphasis on Vernacular Architecture.  She is a licensed architect in the State of California who has designed many innovative homes locally and had her works featured in local design magazines.  Razavian believes it is important to leave a legacy of “people-friendly buildings and homes that are aesthetically pleasing yet blend harmoniously with the environment.”

 

Her presentation will take place at La Jolla/Riford Library, 7555 Draper Ave, La Jolla, CA on July 13 at 5:30 p.m.  For more information, call  858-552-1657.
