Zohreh Hesami has spent 15 years turning bare walls and ceilings into rooms that feel like they belong in a palace. Based in Iran, she leads a team of painters who specialise in murals and patina finishes, and together they take on projects across Iran and its neighbouring countries. This video shows the range of what they do. Plain white columns become marbled skies with a few wide brushes. Domed ceilings fill with soft clouds and classical figures, painted from scaffolding high above the floor. Cherry blossom branches with small birds stretch across one wall, a nod to the flower and bird painting loved in Persian art, while another ceiling turns into a huge swirl of wings, flowers and gold. You also get the quieter steps behind it all: full-size drawings on tracing paper to plan each design, ornate plaster details picked out in colour by hand, and a lot of teamwork on very high platforms. Which room would you most like to walk into? 🎨 Artist: @zohrehesami_art #art #mural #painting #interiordesign #artist
