AZHJ AZHJ is a research boutique, dedicated to empowering cities in reducing inequalities through research & design.

AZHJ is a collaborative practice operating in territories between the disciplines of art, design, research and urbanism.

Urban Redevelopment, Applie

Severed Spaces: Memory, Identity & Power
“What if your sense of self was shaped by the spaces you inhabit? And what if those spaces were designed to control you?”
With the highly anticipated Season 2 of Severance dropping tomorrow, we have prepared a blog post on AZHJ website for tomorrow, in the blog we will break down the show’s unsettling reality—one that mirrors our own.

You will learn tomorrow how:

🔹 The show’s eerie, minimalist office isn't just aesthetic—it’s a metaphor for how space shapes power, labour & autonomy in our cities.�🔹 Neoliberalism has turned spaces into profit-driven tools, marginalising those who don’t fit the mould.�🔹 Foucault’s panopticon lives on: today’s smart cities & surveillance tech subtly discipline us without our knowing.

📍 From brutalist hallways to corporate control, our built environment dictates more than we think.

What spaces make you feel trapped or liberated? Stay tuned to find out tomorrow!

AZHJ Wednesday Destination:
Located south of Amman, in Khrabit Al Souq District, a charming location that captures the past.
A gargantuan, well-preserved cave of about 2,500 sqm extends 20 meters below ground level in this which you find many historical samples collected over time and displayed organically there.
This site is handled privately by the Jaber family, a well-known family from Jordan. Over the years, they received many contributions to enhance the experience of the museum, but we still think they need more attention.

Spread the word, be part of the change and support these beautiful spaces.
