"The explosion feels like a tipping point – in arabic we say the hair that breaks the back of the mule." @StudioSafar report from Beirut https://t.co/oI8qp8AIkj
"This is the way we can be political agents in these unfair and extremely violent conditions. We can’t give this up. I would fight for this. " @StudioSafar on publishing in Beirut > https://t.co/Sav6kGJAHD
We've teamed up with local design agency @studiosafar to release a special Boiler Room Beirut T-shirt, raising funds for those affected within the music community. 100% of proceeds go to the Beirut Musicians' Fund which is helping artists repair equipment destroyed in the blast.
"There are Facebook groups where people are selling their jewellery in return for nappies and formula for their children." @StudioSafar on life in Beirut > https://t.co/QvAfNb5YfK
My brother @HoussamImam and sister @NoorZahzah set up this cowdfunding page to help us rebuild our @StudioSafar that was destroyed in the explosion. https://t.co/gJnPlDuOon
The wonderful, wonderful, wonderful @StudioSafar & the bookshop Papercup are crowdfunding to rebuild in Beirut. Their working spaces, equipment, archives, and in one case, home, are completely destroyed. Heartbroken to see this happen to them. https://t.co/T4T6BPUuVH
Everyone should go to Miranda July’s Instagram story to watch @StudioSafar’s takeover to show what’s happening in Beirut. It’s horrifying. We should all be forced to watch it. (And we should all care.)
"The Green Dogs of Dahshur" by dynamic trio the Dwarfs of East Agouza has landed today! Wonderful design by lynne.on.paper from @studiosafar. Back painting by Raafat Al-Kordy.
