Paniz Moayeri holds a Bachelor of Architectural Studies from the University of Waterloo (class of 2015). Moayeri has practiced architecture in four offices world-wide. This has exposed her to an array of architectural practices and programs and involved her in all phases of the architectural design process.
Moayeri’s last two major projects –a paper, The Use of Collective Memory in Tehran’s Behesht-e Zahra Cemetery as a Tool for Propaganda, published in IN_BO and an installation, Bright Whispers: Tales of Homecoming– are both indicative of her interest in the manifestation of collective memory, immigration, marginalized communities, and cultural norms through design. Moayeri is currently working on her M.Arch thesis at University of Waterloo where her research focuses on the formation, imagination, perception, and the use of space in the Iranian MOGAI-identifying refugee community, settled in the Iranian diaspora of Toronto.
