The Lebanese Way of Life…. Many professions are contributing to Lebanon's well being and to the improvement of the quality of living. These two elements are integral parts of the Lebanese tradition, if not traditions themselves! However, as important as this heritage is, Lebanese society has solidly modernist tendencies.

The delightful mix of ancient and modern has a deep influence on the atmosphere of Lebanon: the new Beirut Central District gathers the architectural style of ancient Beirut and all the facilities one can expect of a capital city of the third millennium. In the past few years, large corporations (banks, insurance companies…) have sponsored green spaces in Greater Beirut, and have been aided in this task by urban landscape designers. Other projects are taken on in order to recover and rehabilitate the "spirit" of certain old neighbourhoods and a similar trend of revival can be seen in the design of interior spaces. Architecture and interior design will keep contributing to the Lebanese radiance abroad.

Although Lebanon is a very sunny country, very special attention is paid to home interiors. Carpet importers are known for their antique & contemporary Persians, Caucasian, Oriental carpets and Kilims. Woodcraft has for centuries occupied a very important place in Lebanon's architectural and furniture-making traditions.
