Born in Tehran, Seraji is the architect of the Temporary American Centre in Paris and the Pavilion of the Caverne de Dragon in northern France. She is presently building complexes in Paris and Vienna. Her work has been exhibited widely, including at the Galerie d'Architecture in Paris, the Royal Institute of British Architects in London and the Venice Biennale.
