This thesis explores the rich and multifaceted experiences of Iranian migration through the lens of generative design, aiming to visualize and interpret these narratives in a nuanced manner. Generative design, characterized by its use of algorithms to create dynamic visual representations, serves as the primary methodological tool in this study. It enables the transformation of migration stories into engaging and deeply informative visual formats and facilitates a broader understanding of these experiences.

The narrative of Iranian migration is complex, influenced by a confluence of socio-political, cultural, and personal factors. By harnessing the capabilities of generative design, this research translates these intricate stories into graphic visualizations that capture the essence of emotions and memories associated with migration. Projects such as "Synesthesia," "The Migrant Garden," "Typographic Narratives," and "CommUnity" illustrate the application of these methodologies. Each project employs specific generative design techniques to address different aspects of the migration experience—from the emotional and psychological impacts to the communal and social dynamics involved.

"Synesthesia" translates audio narratives into visual data, emphasizing the sensory overlap and the emotional depth of migration stories. "The Migrant Garden" uses 3D printing to create tangible representations of individual narratives, allowing for a physical interaction with the stories. "Typographic Narratives" focuses on the power of text and design to vividly convey personal stories, enhancing emotional engagement through typography. Lastly, "CommUnity" utilizes interactive installations to demonstrate the supportive role of communities in the migration process.

These projects not only demonstrate the power of generative design in storytelling but also underscore its potential to foster empathy and understanding among audiences. By breaking down complex narratives into accessible and engaging visual formats, this research contributes to a deeper public understanding of the challenges and triumphs of Iranian immigrants. Importantly, this work highlights the role of innovative design approaches, such as generative design, in shaping the discourse on migration and cultural identity, offering new perspectives and insights.
