I’m Araz Shanazari, an architect, designer and visual artist working across architecture, interiors and visual communication.
My work moves between designing physical spaces and creating images that communicate ideas, products and environments. Whether I’m working on an interior, an architectural visualization or a product campaign, I’m interested in the same things: proportion, material, light, composition and atmosphere.
Working across different disciplines has shaped the way I approach each project. Architecture gives me a structured understanding of space and function, while visualization allows me to explore how those ideas are perceived, communicated and experienced.
What I do
Architecture & Interior Design
I design spaces with a focus on proportion, materiality, functionality and atmosphere. My approach balances the practical requirements of a project with a clear visual identity, developing ideas from initial concept through to detailed design.
Architectural Visualization
I create architectural imagery that communicates more than the form of a building. Through lighting, materials, composition and atmosphere, I aim to create images that feel believable, considered and connected to the character of the architecture.
Product Visualization
I create product imagery and visual campaigns that combine 3D visualization, art direction and post-production. Depending on the project, my process can also incorporate AI-assisted image and video workflows to create expressive, photography-inspired visuals.
My Approach
Designing the idea. Building the image.
My background in architecture has taught me to think about space, scale, materials and the relationship between individual elements.
Visualization has taught me to think differently about the same subjects — through framing, light, mood and storytelling.
I bring these perspectives together in my work, choosing the tools and processes that best serve each project rather than limiting myself to a single medium. This can mean designing in 3D, refining an image through post-production, developing concepts with generative tools, or combining several methods into one workflow.
The goal is always the same: to create work that feels clear, intentional and visually compelling.

Background
My experience spans architectural and interior design, architectural visualization and commercial product imagery.
Alongside my independent design work, I have created visual content for international clients and brands, working on projects ranging from architectural environments and interiors to furniture, acoustic products, packaging and consumer products.
Today, I continue to work across these disciplines rather than treating them as separate practices, using each one to inform and strengthen the others.
Based in Yerevan, Armenia.

Whether it begins with a space, a product or simply an idea, I’m always interested in creating thoughtful visual work and exploring new collaborations.
