Besim S. Hakim, FAICP, AIA, is a consultant in urban design and an independent scholar. He is Fellow of the American Institute of Certified Planners, Member of the American Institute of Architects, and a Harvard graduate in Urban Design. He has been researching and writing about traditional codes from the Mediterranean region since 1975. He has articulated how those codes shaped the traditional built environment, so as to provide lessons and models for contemporary and future architects, urban designers, city administrators and officials, and lawyers, who are involved in formulating or revising codes and related implementation strategies. He has practiced architecture and urban design and also taught those disciplines for over two decades, and has lectured widely in the United States, Europe, North Africa, and Middle East.
His publications include the book Arabic-Islamic Cities: Building and Planning Principles, and numerous scholarly and technical studies on codes spanning the period from the 6th to the 19th centuries of the Common Era. The results are published in scholarly refereed journals in the United States and United Kingdom
