Karen Chekerdjian
Karen Chekerdjian's trajectory in the world of design is a combination of real-life experience in a variety of creative fields. Her first steps in advertising with Leo Burnet in Beirut in 1991 were followed by the co-founding of one of the first brand strategy companies in the Middle East.
Passionate about her work, she obtained a master's degree in industrial design at the Domus Academy in Milan under the direction of Massimo Morozzi, the co-founder of Archizoom. Her collaboration with Morozzi at EDRA gave rise to Mobil, her first tangible work, in 1999.
With product creation as a secondary interest, Chekerdjian instead used her time in Italy to experiment and push the boundaries of her creative work. In 2001, she set up Studio Karen Chekerdjian in Beirut, transforming it into a creative workshop producing her eponymous brand, bespoke furniture and spatial designs. Her work, exhibited internationally for over two decades, blurs the boundaries between art, objects and architectural forms.
