[hatch] architects and planners is a Beirut-based ARCHITECTURE + INTERIOR DESIGN studio founded by Nada Borgi & Sandra Richani in 2013.[hatch] implies the act of formulating a concept, by marking a space between existing parameters with closely drawn lines, to conceive the project.The name and office ambition was developed from a frustration of star-architects’ projects overarching statements and lack of sensitivity to context, in Lebanon and the Middle East. The approach basis is grounded on the idea that to design you need to reinvent the context rather than demolish it.By creating urban and architectural relationships, context-aware and environment-responsive projects become fruitful and sustainable investments.Negotiation with borders and narratives are our tools to engage the individual with the senses and the world.This approach is based on our experiences, and is coupled by an active think-tank and close and vibrant connection to the educational institutions in Lebanon that we teach in.

www.borgibastormagi.com BORGI BASTORMAGI was founded in 2016 when Nada and Etienne were invited to participate in Milan’s Fuori Salone with their [me]rror project, an installation designed to reflect fragmented body parts. Both Nada and Etienne live and work in Beirut, drawing inspiration from their surroundings and daily lives. Fusing tradition with modernity, their designs are influenced by everyone’s attempt to find moments of balance and harmony amidst the chaos of the city. In their free time, they used to spend long hours in cafes drawing in their sketchbooks. Drawing nights eventually became more focused on product design. Etienne’s artistic background and Nada’s interest in designing through narratives drafted the vision of BORGI BASTORMAGI
