Nader Tehrani is a principle partner of the Boston-based architecture and design firm office dA. The firm's work ranges in scale from furniture to urban design, with a focus upon architecture. Office dA seizes on the challenges unique to each project as the catalysts for transformation in architecture. An investigation of the potentials of materials and construction techniques, often imported from fields outside of architecture is the foundation for every design. Recent projects include the Main Library for the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, the Macallen Building in Boston and Helios House, a sustainable gas station, in Los Angeles.
