This site was built in memory of GH. Khakbaz, who was a great admirer of the Persian culture. The design carries quiet echoes of that heritage: the girih rosette that recurs in the page background, the list markers, and the dividers is drawn from the interlocking geometry of Persian girih tilework, an ornamental tradition whose roots reach back to the carved rosettes of Takht-e Jamshid (Persepolis) near Shiraz, and the teal used throughout the site is derived from Persian blue, the colour of Persian tilework and pottery.
