Hadil Alkhatib is a designer working between Los Angeles and Beirut. Her practice moves between furniture and objects through a material-driven approach shaped by physical transformation, surface, and form.

Alkhatib is interested in the point where material stops behaving obediently, allowing resistance, pressure, and physical tension to participate in the final form rather than be refined out of it. That tension remains central to her approach across objects.

Years of working across interiors gradually shifted the way Alkhatib perceived objects, sharpening an awareness of how scale, material, shadow, and placement can quietly alter the psychological balance within a room.

While pursuing a Master’s degree in Design for Sustainability at SCAD in 2021, her relationship with material evolved toward a slower and more instinctive process guided by observation, physical response, and transformation.

Balancing architectural structure with sculptural presence, her work exists in a space between function and artifact.
