What is it exactly?
Hammerspace is a creative studio where ideas find form. We pull from an invisible toolkit of dreams, stories, and crafts to build brands, spaces, products, and experiences that feel both inevitable and impossible.
Hamza Mekdad is a designer, artist, and the founder of Hammerspace. Known for blurring the lines between concept and craft, he has spent the last decade shaping some of the most iconic spaces, brands, and cultural experiences in the MENA region.
Before founding Hammerspace, Hamza served as the creative director of Factory People and before that, The Garten, where he led the creation of groundbreaking nightlife and hospitality concepts that redefined regional taste and set new standards for immersive design. His vision is behind some of the most talked-about venues and festivals across Beirut, Dubai, Turkey, Egypt, and London.
Parallel to his work in branding and spatial design, Hamza maintains a rigorous artistic practice. His installations and design pieces have been exhibited at Milan Design Week, Dubai Design Week, and the Harewood Biennial in the UK, among others.
At Hammerspace, he brings it all together:
The imagination of an artist, the precision of a designer, and the ambition of a world-builder. His approach is equal parts poetic and pragmatic.
