About Hashim Sarkis
Hashim Sarkis is the founding Principal of Hashim Sarkis Studios (HSS) established in 1998 in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Beirut, Lebanon and has been Dean of the School of Architecture and Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) since 2015. His studio is invested in the constructionist possibilities of architecture, in the ability of buildings to project new worlds, to inspire new forms of inhabitation in these worlds. Along Nelson Goodman’s view of art as a cumulative and intensive logic, architecture worlds offers a level of rigor and complexity on par with whatever real worlds there are out there. Important projects are the Byblos Town Hall (Byblos, Lebanon), a Ballon Landing Park (Beirut, Lebanon), the Tyre Fisherman’s Housing (Abbasiyeh, Lebanon) or the Courtowers (Lebanon).
