Dr. Mohsen Moosavi, architect in Iran & Canada, professor of architecture at the University of Mazandaran, Iran, has become a member of 2021 Golden Trezzini Awards panel of experts.
“It is my honor to be on the jury of Golden Trezzini Awards beside the world's greatest architects: Daniel Libeskind, Mario Botta, Toyo Ito, etc. Many thanks to the Golden Trezzini Awards for this invitation. In my opinion, these awards are among the best in the world, because of having a special attitude towards the discipline of architecture and design”, Mohsen Moosavi says.
Dr. Moosavi, architect of numerous buildings and winner of several architectural competitions, deeply believes that he has learned architecture from nature, vernacular architecture and also the architects/professors of several universities in the world: University of Tehran, Art University of Isfahan, Carlton University, University of Toronto, Ghent University, KU Leuven, University of Sydney, etc. He finds inspiration in music and poetry as well.
Mohsen Moosavi published 15 books and about 50 papers on architecture. His research interests include architectural pedagogy, social and environmental sustainability, vernacular architecture and architectural design process. Remarkably, he contributed to the creation of the project of Islamic Art Museum of Iran, which became a Golden Trezzini Awards finalist in 2020.
University of Mazandaran is headquartered in the city of Babolsar, Iran. Currently the largest state higher education center in the province of Mazandaran, it had formerly consisted of a number of tertiary education centers, which were officially merged to form what is now known as University of Mazandaran in 1979. The University has now about 12 000 students at undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate levels and over 350 faculty members.
