The Practice

Where tradition meets contemporary

Azim is a designer and practitioner of Arabic calligraphy based in Edinburgh. Studying since since 2012, he specialises in Thuluth following the tradition of Shawqi Effendi.

His work spans bespoke private commissions, personal work, and some interior design. Now, he focuses heavily on teaching, conducting workshops around the UK, for private groups. The most celebrated example of his work is a dome in Glasgow, Masjid Al-Khazra, featuring a completely unique design and finished in gold metal leaf.

What People Say

He tailored his calligraphy style to our needs — clean and accessible, while retaining a unique flourish all his own.

Saimma Dyer — Chickpea Press

As the class was small he was able to give a lot of attention to everyone. We went into great detail which makes a big difference.
