Lidia was Born 1977 – Yazd, Iran and has a BA in fine Arts from Tehran Azad University, has tutored art in Iran and in Canada, and has held numerous successful art exhibitions. You can view a sample of her work at her online art gallery on this site.

LDS was established online by Lidia Shahabi in January of 2002.
In a broad sense, the idea for setting up LDS was to help businesses, small and large, use the power of artistic design and color to create a favorable impression on the human consciousness. Over the years as Lidia's reputation as a modern artist expanded so did her reputation as a business oriented designer who could create impressionable and memorable graphics that for her clients brought about measurable gains both in brand and sales.

Over the past year Lidia has helped numerous companies in various fields design or re-design their company, products and services identity.
