"The architecture works designed by STUDIO 195, leading by the architect Tarane Rahmani, is extremely vivid and powerful. They studied Chinese culture and local customs, as well as visited the tea gardens on site. By doing such, they acquired the elements which are in conformity to the project concepts, and use them in their architectural designing. The entire design not only incorporates nature, but also reveals Chinese culture and historical characteristics implicitly, which makes our hotel and villas a unique Chinese modern architecture."

EAGLE HILLS PROPERTIES

Rowina Armale, Senior Development manager (Past position)

While acting as a Senior Development Manager with Eagle Hills Properties in United Arab Emirates, I had the pleasure of working with Tarane Rahmani on a multi- faceted, complex, exclusive resort residential project. Tarane's creative design ability and sensitivity to cultural and regional nuances, as well as her problem solving and management skills were very impressive, leading to a final product that surpassed our company's expectations. One of the most important aspects in choosing a consultant to work with is their ability to understand our client needs for that specific project and Tarane really made it seem like an easy task. I look forward to working with her again in the near future.
