Founded in 2011, Arini is a research and design office that works at the intersection of scholarly research focusing on design activism, architecture pedagogy, and the predicaments of urbanization and the built environment in Jordan. We explore this through various mediums from workshops, design and curatorial projects, to publications. To do this, we use interdisciplinary methods from anthropology, the social sciences and the humanities. www.herskhazeen.com, an online magazine for architecture and design in the Arab World is operated by Arini
