Abrisham is my preferred name, in Farsi/Persian it means ‘Silk’.
I’m researching, learning, creating, testing, trying, writing, finding and innovating to designing open public space that is culturally inclusive and draws on professional advice and research across the globe for sustainability designs and policies that are publicly available for innovating i.e. released under creative commons, freedom software.
In 2023 I graduated from Southern Cross University in Lismore with a degree in environmental science and currently work within the built-environment sector auditing construction products against Green Building Council of Australia sustainability criteria.
At this moment I’m exploring medium-density design and open public space for regional and medium sized cities, and hope to reach this across the globe to enable local transitions towards greater peace through restoration of the mind and environment.
SelfAbrisham is building an independent and open-source research and development network to help businesses in the built-environment integrate sufficiency, mental health restorative practices and reduced life-cycle impact across their operations.
Our aim is help businesses, governments and individuals in the built-environment space contribute and share in knowledge to restore mental health among employees, reduce their life-cycle environmental impact and understand how to promote sufficiency across their operations. We believe in sharing knowledge that helps promote fast and rapid transitions for public benefit.
We approach all our work with robust methodologies and more importantly within an ethical framework of principles to improve, question and remain open to the beauty of the world.
As part of a commitment to environmental and social well-being I’ve pledged to give 5% of my post-13%-salary-sacrificed income towards charity.
I try to direct my charitable contributions evenly between social and environmental causes both locally and internationally.
