Mehmooni: Persian Rugs & Modern Poets
@Rugriders is a young rug brand that is making waves in the traditional rug market. They admire the cultural heritage and importance of the carpet craft.
Aria and Bardia are brothers with parents from Teheran and Tabriz. Both studied business in Europe and started working in finance and online marketing.
Now the brothers decided to continue the family business. They didn‘t just continue but rather took it to a whole other level - (they call it the rug business 2.0) by giving rugs a second life.
RugRiders combines tradition and modernity.
“We are excited to offer high quality, sustainable and refreshed rugs by refining existing rugs instead of further enabling the production of new ones.”
“We are transforming the over 2000 years old rug dealing business through collaborations, digitalization and creative zeitgeist. Our latest collabos have been with NIKE, BSTN, Adidas and many different Artists.”
You can check out more of their work on www.rugriders.de or on Instagram @rugriders
Rugriders ship worldwide and also welcome customers with special designs for bespoke pieces!

Mehmooni: Architecture and Acting with Dana Haqjoo
Dana Haqjoo @danahaqjoo is a British-Iranian actor. He is very much the product of dual cultures; possibly one of the reasons why he has dual careers. Dana is both an actor and an architect; managing time between two very different paths.
He initially trained in architecture and after practicing for several years, he decided to pursue an acting career. Something he had always been passionate about. Dana is now working primarily in TV and film as an actor while balancing his other role as the director of a successful London based architectural practice. On this episode we talk about his role in the play The Boy with Two Hearts @thecentre_yganolfan as well as some of the exciting upcoming projects Dana is working on; including his role on #Hapless on @Netflixuk .

Mehmooni: Film, Heritage & Poetry
Somayeh (@so___mii) is an Iranian born director, editor and photographer. Her work combines her eye for the cinematic moment with her interest in emotive narratives with sound design featuring prominently in her work, blurring the lines between fiction and reality.
Her personal history is often layered into her work, sometimes raw, often poetic. The story of her own heritage and self-identity often becomes interlaced with her subject matter to produce an intimate yet surreal language on-screen. Somayeh is represented by RSA film.
