Hanif Kara Recognized with Order of the British Empire Award in Queen's New Year Honours 2022
Having started out in 1996 in a single discipline engineering practice, Hanif Kara quickly identified gaps not being catered for within the industry. By applying linguistic, technological and aesthetic dimensions to the scientific discipline of engineering, a new practice emerged. Inspired by solving problems, Kara has worked on builds beset with challenges from the outset such as the complex archaeological site of the Bloomberg building and the social requirements of the Peckham Library. http://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/engi...
