My 8 years’ experience in the family business (consultancy office/furniture showroom/fit-out factory) in Beirut/Lebanon made me acquire a great deal of expertise in both architectural and interior design fields, including but not restricted to architecture/construction life cycles, international and local standards, as well as a thorough understanding of fit-out/carpentry production techniques comprising both classical and modern furniture and FF@E design and implementation.
I’m well acquainted with all relevant construction, fit-out materials, as well as subsequent relevant detailing and implementation.
This global managerial experience established me as a fulfilled senior architect with acute management skills stemming from a thorough knowledge of construction/ interior design and management procedures.
