ASA North
ASA North is a New York-based architecture practice focused on innova- tion in art, design, technology, social interaction and lifestyle. Founded in 2015 by Iranian-Austrian Architect Ahmadreza Schricker, ASA North’s core team of eleven engineers and architects collaborates with artists and writ- ers around the world to design and execute interdisciplinary projects that range in scale from exhibitions to private residences and urban masterplans.
Most recently, ASA North completed the Argo Factory, the first contemporary in- ternational art museum & cultural centre to be built in Tehran in over forty years. ASA North’s expansion converts the 1920’s Argo Factory— a 480 m2, beer distillery in downtown Tehran—into a 1,850 m2 arts center equipped with six distinct gallery spaces, an auditorium, library, and artist residency. Despite coinciding with the global Covid-19 pandemic and political turmoil in its inaugural year open to the public, Argo Factory has emerged as a new hub for international discourse and the energetic Irani- an culture scene in the heart of Tehran. ASA North also collaborated with renowned Iranian photojournalist Newsha Tavakolian on the design of “For the Sake of Calm- ness” — a multimedia installation with an ethereal symmetrical space at Argo Museum.
Currently, ASA North is designing the first Virtual Museum from bottom up for the uniques collection of Mohammed Afkhami in Dubai, UAE. In addition to that ASA North is also working on the master-plan of a 7,800 square meters cultural centre (A Cultural Station) to showcase the Saba Manouchehri’s Modern Art & Tex- tile collection in the desert of Kashan, Iran, which will break ground this Summer.
Before founding ASA North, Ahmadreza Schricker oversaw multiple proj- ects at OMA*AMO in New York and Herzog & de Meuron in Basel.
