Elham Hakimi

Elham Hakimi is an Iranian graphic designer and urban artist with over a decade of experience in poster design, visual identity, public art installations, sculpture, and the creation of modern artistic objects. Her creative path bridges institutional visual communication with expressive sculptural works and functional design.

In recent years, she has focused on creating sculpture-inspired household objects—pieces that combine functionality and artistic depth, often rooted in Iranian traditional motifs and crafted from natural materials.

At the core of her artistic philosophy is the belief that art should extend beyond galleries and enter daily life, tangible, understandable, and emotionally resonant. Whether placed in public spaces or private interiors, her works aim to make modern art more accessible, intimate, and alive.

One of her notable public projects is a creative bench installation exhibited at Tehran’s iconic Milad Tower, as part of the first "Creative Circle Festival." The work emphasized public interaction with design in one of the most prominent urban landmarks in Iran.
