  • Perishable Traces: Reconstructing the History of Iranian Women Architects.Asma Mehan - 2024 - In Eva María Alvarez Isidro, ICAG 2023 - VI International Conference on Architecture and Gender. Valencia, Spain: Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València. pp. 522-530.
    In this paper, I seek to address the underrepresentation of Iranian women architects in historical narratives, exploring the perishable traces of their work and contributions to the field of architecture. Inspired by Carla Lonzi's call for women to consider their narrative incomplete and the International Archive of Women in Architecture (IAWA), I delve into the unique challenges Iranian women architects face and their impact on architectural history.

  • Housing as Politics: The case of Tehran.Asma Mehan & Mahziar Mehan - 2020 - In Simona Canepa, Spaces for living, Spaces for sharing. Syracuse, Italy: LetteraVentidue Edizioni. pp. 56-65.
    Iran, as a country that has never been colonized, underwent a rapid modernization process, which arose from its internal pressures. Starting from 1945, with the rise of globalism at the end of World War II, a new stage of modernization began in Iran which continued to grow and foster the culture of mass consumption. Globalization also led to the rise of different maternities in the housing sector. Focusing on Tehran, the dominant tendency to create a modern society based on nationalism (...)
