DESIGN
© 2021 by Ebrahim Nazier
Ebrahim Nazier strives along an unconventional creative path to make spaces that enhance the environments they inhabit. He is a spatial designer, musician, filmmaker and seamster who emigrated to England from South Africa in 2011. Growing up in a creative household, Ebrahim became accustomed to the natural state of spaces, objects and materials. He nurtures this awareness as a designer, treading lightly in the environments in which he creates his work.
As an architectural technologist, Ebrahim spent a decade working in commercial, industrial and residential architecture in Cape Town, London and Birmingham. His expertise in spatial design and construction remains with him across disciplines in his theatre and installation work. From 2015-2021, Ebrahim held posts as Head of Technical Design and Head of Workshops at the Birmingham REP where he designed technical structures for a multitude of productions including One Love: The Bob Marley Musical, Nativity! The Musical and What Shadows. He also designed sets for REP productions Scenes from a Brummie Iliad, Foundry Festival and Romeo and Juliet.
Ebrahim also works as a designer with Cloud Cuckoo Land, Friction Arts and Artists On The Edge, and plays music with Into The Zoetrope.
