OU Architecture grads Jalal and Mohammad Farzaneh were recently featured in The Oklahoman in an article titled “Home Creations founders build on entrepreneurial spirit.”
The article mentions their successful business, Home Creations, and their keynote address at Oklahoma’s annual Entrepreneurial Summit. The Farzanehs, who began building homes in Oklahoma in 1981, have built more than 12,000 homes.
The brothers attribute much of their success to the state of Oklahoma and to the University of Oklahoma, saying it is the “best education you can find.”
