About ELHARF House:
Here's a concise 100 word version that reflects ELHARF House today:
ELHARF House is an independent cultural space in Amman founded by Hussein Alazaat in 2018. Dedicated to Arab visual culture, it brings together art, design, publishing, education, and research under one roof. Home to The Beautiful Books Trove, a growing archive of rare Arabic books, magazines, and ephemera, ELHARF hosts exhibitions, workshops, lectures, screenings, and cultural gatherings that explore the region's history and contemporary creativity. Through hands on experiences, publications, and collaborations with artists, researchers, and institutions, ELHARF transforms cultural heritage into living knowledge, fostering dialogue, craftsmanship, and new generations of designers, makers, and cultural practitioners.
بيت الحرف هو مساحة ثقافية مستقلة في عمّان، أسسها حسين الأزعط عام 2018، وتُعنى بالثقافة البصرية العربية من خلال التصميم، والفنون، والنشر، والبحث، والتعليم. يحتضن البيت «خزانة الكتب الجميلة»، وهي أرشيف متنامٍ للكتب والمطبوعات العربية النادرة، ويقدَّم في بيت الحرف المعارض وورش عمل والمحاضرات والعروضاً السينمائية والبرامج الثقافية التي تستكشف تاريخ المنطقة وإرثها البصري. يؤمن بيت الحرف بأن الماضي مصدر للإلهام، ويعمل على إعادة تقديمه بلغة معاصرة، جامعاً بين الحِرَفيين والباحثين والفنانين والمصممين لبناء حوار حيّ حول الهوية العربية وإلهام الأجيال القادمة من خلال المعرفة والإبداع.
