He is the son of Professor Siavash Etesam, a pilot, and his father was a retired professor of structural engineering at the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany. He is also the nephew of Dr. Iraj Etesam, a famous and contemporary Iranian architect. Iraj Etesam earned his PhD in Architecture from the University of Florence, Italy. His great-grandfather, “Etesam al-Molk,” was a Qajar agent in Gorgan, and his grandfather was a city guard officer.
Many architects around the world have lived or are currently living who have influenced the world of architecture with their unique working style, thinking and extraordinary works. Among the recognized global architects, Iranian architects also hold a high position and many of them are a source of pride for Iran. One of these architects is Iraj Etesam. With an unparalleled body of work, from Shah Cheragh to Mellat Park, from Berkeley to San Jose, he is a memorable figure from a generation without equal. Dr. Iraj Etesam was also a member of several organizations and institutions that benefited from his knowledge and experience. These organizations include the Association of Iranian Architectural Masters, international associations in Greece, the American Institute of Architects, the American Society of Planners, the International Society for the Study of Traditional Environments, and the International Federation for Housing and Planning.

Their childhood was spent in conversation and play with the beloved poet, painter and writer Sohrab Sepehri (a great friendship between Siavash and Iraj, dream architects whose buildings touched the sky and Sohrab whose words penetrated hearts and conquered souls). Their youth was dedicated to nurturing an innovative generation of students. Dr. Etesam is one of the few individuals who have made great efforts in the field of research and expansion of architectural and urban knowledge in Iran. Above all, his presence in the field to educate and train architects and urban planners of recent generations is evident. This presence continued until the last months of his precious life. He was a well-rounded and noble intellectual without any pretentiousness.
