« Beirut, a city that has long been a symbol of resilience and artistic brilliance, is poised to host an exceptional four-day design experience from October 27th to 30th, 2023. “We Design Beirut” is set to captivate the hearts and minds of design enthusiasts, professionals, and creatives alike with a diverse and immersive program that promises to celebrate, inspire, and ignite the world of design.
LIFE, an organization dedicated to empowering the Lebanese community, embraces the principle of “Stronger Together.” With a global membership of 1,200, they focus on their education program to uplift youth education and employability. “Creative Liaisons,” a showcase uniting Lebanese Designers and Artisans, is being presented as part of We Design Beirut 2023, with 63 unique pieces curated by Almaz Collectible Design and The Ready Hand. These pieces reflect Lebanon’s design excellence and craftsmanship and will be auctioned during the Global Gala dinner to support the Education program. LIFE appreciates the dedication of artisans, designers, contributors, and supporters, acknowledging their vital role in bringing this endeavor to fruition and expressing gratitude for their commitment to a brighter future for Lebanon.
The event aims to put Beirut on the global design map by inviting both international and regional press to experience its vibrancy firsthand. We Design Beirut aspires to be recognized as a premier platform that enriches the design scene, not only locally but also globally, and these press interactions will play a pivotal role in achieving that goal.
We Design Beirut is not just an event; it’s a celebration of creativity, innovation, and cultural heritage. With its diverse array of design disciplines, strategic locations, collaborations, preservation efforts, engaging talks, and global outreach, the event promises to be a transformative experience for all attendees. As the city of Beirut breathes new life into its past, We Design Beirut stands as a beacon of inspiration and a testament to the enduring spirit of creativity. »
