“Geographically, Beirut Design Week stretched from the central areas of Beirut: Monot, Mar Mkhayel, and Gemmayze of Ashrafieh, Jean d’Arc street of Hamra up to the northern city of Tripoli with its traditional craftsmen who might be the last ones of their kind, to name but a few. Guided tours, free exhibitions, and workshops for professionals were held and spread over various areas and locations adding to the vivid character of the event. “ special thanks to @irinasuzdalieva for featuring us in World Architecture magazine
“The idea is that once the municipality sees how easy and affordable these solutions are to implement, they will adopt them in other districts.
