Karim Nader is an architect whose work is silent, but never still. Contextually and textually engaged, he practices design fervently and conscientiously, believing that architecture moves through nature as much as nature moves through architecture.

Nader graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture with distinction from the American University of Beirut in 1999. He was the first prize winner of the Azar Award as well as the third prize winner of the Aareen Award for excellence in architecture. In 2003, he received his Master of Architecture from Rice University (Houston, Texas, USA).

After independent professional beginnings, Nader collaborated with Blankpage from 2008 until 2016 as founding member. In 2011, he was awarded both the  SEF 355 office complex in Sin el Fil, commissioned by Express International, and Triade, a multi-use project commissioned by MEDPROPERTIES and M-Tower S.A.L. In 2012, the FFA Real Estate selected the firm amongst 12 others as the laureate of the Ahlam Country Club competition. In 2015, he won the Badalodge competition, a 20,000sqm eco-resort in Bamako, Mali, organized by Omnium Capital. That same year, Amchit Residence was nominated for the Archmarathon Award.
