performance lecture made in collaboration with artist Louis Pohl Koseda as part of an ongoing exploration of the UK’s planning system and its inherent complexity and contradiction. The performance was an attempt to elucidate on the layers of palimpsest that are present in government decision making processes, but also the layers of narrative that are presented in the painting. Building on my research at the Design Museum, The Predicament of the Pipeline untangled the layers present in the current planning application process. With a new piece developed in collaboration by Louis Pohl Koseda as a backdrop, as well as using a narrative structure, soundscapes and live drawing I untangled the layers of bureaucracy to reveal the ways in which palimpsest defines the nature of policy and governance historically, and the impact this has on real life scenarios.&nbsp; https://hanisalih.com/UCA-Student-Show-2026-Review Sun, 12 Jul 2026 15:27:05 +0000 Hani Salih https://hanisalih.com/UCA-Student-Show-2026-Review UCA Student Show 2026: Review&nbsp; <img width="1395" height="613" width_o="1395" height_o="613" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/762a1c3a096a56ee0db0cbeeefb583a1a7872a468539977fc3bca581d118d142/Screenshot-2026-07-12-at-16.24.28.png" data-mid="250343867" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/762a1c3a096a56ee0db0cbeeefb583a1a7872a468539977fc3bca581d118d142/Screenshot-2026-07-12-at-16.24.28.png" /> A review of the University for the Creative Arts’ Architecture student show For the Architects’ Journal, I visited the UCA’s School of Architecture and reflected on the work and approach taken by the department. I was particularly interested in how the school interfaces with the upstream systemic challenges, and how the teaching approach prepares students for impactful careers.&nbsp; &nbsp;“Models are fashioned out of a range of materials without looking inconsiderate or resembling refuse. Polystyrene cups are playfully used to suggest form and volume, for example, and copper pipes and plastic bottles can be found moving through the models unexpectedly. Yet it doesn’t look rudimentary. There is surprising maturity and restraint demonstrated that feels promising for first-year work. ...&nbsp; At a moment where the future of architecture is constantly being questioned, and students are demanding more from their education, UCA clearly has ambitions to continue producing critical contributions to the practice of architecture and the built environment... Inflection points are far more pronounced once the observer has distance, and one can see the bigger picture. Although it’s hard to understand how these ideas will continue to gestate and grow as students move into the world of practice, it does give hope.” https://hanisalih.com/Redirecting-Systemic-Inertia Tue, 02 Jun 2026 11:20:53 +0000 Hani Salih https://hanisalih.com/Redirecting-Systemic-Inertia Redirecting Systemic Inertia&nbsp; <img width="3508" height="2548" width_o="3508" height_o="2548" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c59ea72baf9fd814ce9ef1af1a5690f8d105b3ac35649552568e1e53efbd2e3e/RDW01-1.jpeg" data-mid="249013155" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c59ea72baf9fd814ce9ef1af1a5690f8d105b3ac35649552568e1e53efbd2e3e/RDW01-1.jpeg" /> A short introductory text to the CIVICITY publication, a project led by The Nieuwe Instituut, collating contributions and reflections from participants in the 2025 and 2026 edition of the programme. CIVICITY is a project led by The Nieuwe Instituut in Rotterdam that invites designers to think critically about the impact and the legacy of design weeks - how they effect the host cities’ economies, cultures and environments. The project is situated in Milan, and is delivered in partnership with CheFare.&nbsp; Ahead of the 2026 edition of Milan Design Week, I reflected briefly on the systems that spring into life each year to make these city-wide events happen.&nbsp; A longer and more in-depth reflection is currently in the works. https://hanisalih.com/Building-Study-Understanding-Homelessness Tue, 02 Jun 2026 11:03:04 +0000 Hani Salih https://hanisalih.com/Building-Study-Understanding-Homelessness Building Study: Understanding Homelessness&nbsp; <img width="2548" height="3508" width_o="2548" height_o="3508" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3877b4795cbfd9678378e8bdecab13680c161558309d374625d8d22f16bcdbe7/AJ_02.jpeg" data-mid="249012685" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3877b4795cbfd9678378e8bdecab13680c161558309d374625d8d22f16bcdbe7/AJ_02.jpeg" /> <img width="2548" height="3508" width_o="2548" height_o="3508" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8ceaa4359be534f0092bc5bd7a2a1fda18513ca0e4d44ed072bcdc060ca764c0/AJ_03.jpeg" data-mid="249012686" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8ceaa4359be534f0092bc5bd7a2a1fda18513ca0e4d44ed072bcdc060ca764c0/AJ_03.jpeg" /> <img width="2548" height="3508" width_o="2548" height_o="3508" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e4a1a07a591ab2e37772039b03949cad0a4d3e52dd9bdc9eed9188e7365ac7c1/AJ_01.jpeg" data-mid="249012684" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e4a1a07a591ab2e37772039b03949cad0a4d3e52dd9bdc9eed9188e7365ac7c1/AJ_01.jpeg" /> A review of a temporary accommodation facility in the heart of the City of London for the Architects’ Journal Homelessness issue.&nbsp; For the Architects’ Journal, I visited the Snow Hill Court project and reflected on its approach to providing essential services to rough sleepers in the city. Specifically considering how the building and the architects were able to negotiate a difficult site to deliver a sensitive, considered and humane spatial response. &nbsp;“From certain angles you can see how the building has bowed and moved over the past century and a half, its windows slightly out of plumb. It’s an idiosyncratic building that wears its history well and one can’t help but feel a sense of endearment towards it. It conjures up an image of a David among Goliaths, as it sits surrounded by blocks of impersonal offices and the rear façade of St Bartholomew’s Hospital, all towering above it. ...&nbsp; Despite the overshadowing of the site by neighbouring buildings, a soft light suffuses the internal arrangements during the day. The use of frosted acrylic screens admits light deep into the plan while maintaining a degree of privacy for users. Perhaps most impressive, however, considering that the practice was working within the constraints of a Grade II listing and the layout of a former schoolhouse, is that 11 of the 14 beds have direct proximity to a window.” https://hanisalih.com/After-Sembene Mon, 22 Dec 2025 19:12:54 +0000 Hani Salih https://hanisalih.com/After-Sembene After Sembene <img width="842" height="595" width_o="842"

the structures that make up democracies all over the world. Steadfast democratic institutions are being undermined or wholly transformed. Shifting into a strange mercurial politics. A politics rooted in historical revisionism and the death of objectivity. At the heart of this cultural battleground is a matter of historical revisionism, the rewriting of history. These are not just conversations about “how things were”, but instead, they are much more insidious. They are attempts at rewriting a national psyche.

Hot Mess looked to investigate the complexity and contradiction that is inextricable from the process of policy and decision-making in England. Using heat pumps as a case study, this project sought to map out the mechanisms of how policy is currently made, the current challenges in national and local planning policy and speculate an alternative way to make decisions that looks to learn from how nature deals with complexity and contradiction. The process and outcomes of this research are on display at a free public exhbition at the Design Museum from 16th June to 21st September 2025.&nbsp; https://hanisalih.com/Vulture-Capitalism Mon, 11

We are in an age of polycrisis, one that is characterised by a barrage of images of catastrophic environmental collapse, vast and mind-boggling wealth inequality, brutal and unrelenting genocidal campaigns and so much more. These images, projected to us through screens daily, have become the background noise to which we move through our daily lives. Stopping every now and then to consume, protest, or take a break on a sunny beach somewhere in search of a respite. When we think about this contemporary period we find ourselves in, critics often lay the blame squarely at the feet of modern capitalism. But such critique often does not actively interrogate the idea of how our era has come to be defined by such catastrophic conditions. And though there isn’t such a thing as a single cause or solution to problems in an increasingly complex and interconnected world, a critical analysis of the methods and armature of modern capitalism demonstrates a harrowing realisation that this all par for the course, rather than the hijacking of an inherently benevolent system. In her new book Vulture Capitalism: Corporate Crimes, Backdoor Bailouts and the Death of Freedom Blakeley takes on the world’s most powerful corporations by showing how the causes of our modern crises are the intended result of our capitalist system. It’s not broken, it’s working exactly as planned.
 Part of an ongoing collaboration with Dutch platform DeDependance,&nbsp; we invited Grace Blakeley to speak about her book Vulture Capitalism:&nbsp;Corporate Crimes, Backdoor Bailouts and the Death of Freedom.For this event, I curated and moderated the discussion in collaboration with DeDependance.&nbsp; PRAISE FOR VULTURE CAPITALISM

DER VOOREN,JACQUELINE FUIJKSCHOT︎ Under the title Nature of Hope, the 11th edition of the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR) examines nature, culture and hope from the perspective of architectural thought and action, as a driving force for social change. What does it take to face uncertainty about the future in a time of profound and multiple transformations – in other words, what are the building blocks we need to remain hopeful? IABR 2024 took place from 29th June to 13th October 2024 and will focus on a combination of hope and nature. This choice stems from the recognition that everything begins with the Earth and that our exploitation – or rather, depletion – of the Earth, each other, and the living world is leading to multiple ecological and social crises. As humans, we can no longer place ourselves above or at a distance from nature and nor do we wish to. How can we put the knowledge and practices of spatial design at the service of the planet and all the creatures that live on it? Joined the curatorial team for the 2024 edition of the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR). The Biennale looked to consider the nature of hope from a place of pragmatism, asking what the architecture and built environment sector can learn and how the future of practice that is oriented towards a just and ecological architecture looks like.

becomes more apparent, many have been advocating for policy alternatives to the business as usual approach. Using the ongoing planetary crisis as a moment for all out transformation, all over the world, variants of the Green New Deal have emerged – drawing together policy actions to combat the climate crisis in addition to tackling economic inequality. Part of an ongoing collaboration with Dutch platform DeDependance, and for a special collaboration with International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR), we invited Max Ajl to speak about his book A People’s Green New Deal to discuss how various green transition movements can not only tell us about where we are, but what we need to do in order to bring about actionable policy change. Ajl diagnoses the roots of the current socio-ecological crisis as emerging from a world-system dominated by the logics of capitalism and imperialism. Resolving this crisis, he therefore argues, requires nothing less than infrastructural and agricultural transformation in the Global North, and the industrial convergence between North and South.&nbsp; Max was joined by Rosemarie van Ham, who is currently working with for the municipality of Rotterdam and is the founder of Inclusive Climate Action Rotterdam (ICAR), with a mission to advocate climate justice and equality, and Ken de Cooman, co-founder of BC Architects, a hybrid practice that is designing and undertaking “acts of building” towards systemic change in the architecture and construction sector.&nbsp; For this event, I curated and moderated the discussion in collaboration with DeDependance and IABR.&nbsp;
