I’m Abbas Sbeity (b. 1991, Lebanon), a designer, curator, and cultural practitioner based between Helsingborg and Stockholm, Sweden. My personal practice explores the intersections of design, urban life, and participatory culture through artistic, curatorial, and research-driven methods.

My independent curatorial work investigates social, political, and spatial issues by engaging communities in co-creation and critical dialogue. Recent projects include “Unfolding Arrival,” a performance-driven curatorial collaboration presented at Resonant Field – CuratorLab Festival in Stockholm.

I founded Kulturrummet, a grassroots platform and space dedicated to multidisciplinary, site-specific, and community-driven cultural programs, complementary to my personal artistic and curatorial explorations.

As the founder and strategist at Creative Insights Studio, I offer consultancy services in design, strategy, and research, primarily for the public and civic sectors.

I lecture in Design Theory and Management at Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts (Lebanon) and serve as a guest lecturer in Embedded Design at HDK-Valand, Gothenburg University (Sweden).

My academic background includes CuratorLab at Konstfack in Stockholm (2025), an MA in Design from ALBA, and a Bachelor of Architecture from the Lebanese University. I bring extensive experience in cultural management, including leading learning programs and grant schemes for artists, journalists, and cultural practitioners across the MENA region.

In Lebanon, I founded Architects for Change (2014–2019) and am a board member of the MENA Design Research Center, where I managed and programmed four editions of Beirut Design Week (2015–2019).

This website offers insights into my individual practice and ongoing explorations.
