Philosophy
Saremi is a well-known figure in contemporary architecture, for construction projects involving limited urban spaces. In an interview with Taghi Radmard (Bahram Hooshyar Yousefi) he stated: "We designed the building in this way that solve the issue of neighborhood (in case of a school for girls). Moreover, school became a happy space and a happy space needs happy and bright materials. Some colors, trees, light shadows have to hide, space for children to hide... Spaces do not have to be defined, only." He also spoke about Persian architecture.
