Azeri style

The "Azerbaijani style" or "Azeri style" (Persian: شیوهٔ معماری آذری‎) is a style (sabk) of architecture when categorizing Iranian architecture development in Iranian Azerbaijan history. Landmarks of this style of architecture span from the late 13th century (Ilkhanate) to the appearance of the Safavid Dynasty in the 16th century CE.[1]

Examples of this style are Dome of Soltaniyeh, Arg e Tabriz, Jameh Mosque of Varamin, Goharshad Mosque, Bibi Khanum mosque in Samarqand, tomb of Abdas-Samad, Gur-e Amir, Jameh mosque of Yazd and Jameh Mosque of Urmia.[2]
