It all started at Villa Paradiso Gemmayze, the adventure that lead us smoothly to an idea we love to call "The Villa Paradiso Spirit"! The idea had already been put together early back in 2013 in a stunning traditional Lebanese villa owned by our family and located in Beirut's hip and chic Gemmayze neighborhood. We started our journey with the exhibition "Carrousel" by the British painter living in Lebanon, Tom Young, who just like us, happens to be a fervent advocate of the heritage preservation movement, very active today in the Lebanese capital. We have been feeding our quest for the preservation of the Lebanese heritage through bringing back abandoned traditional mansions into life by activating their role in the present. By doing so, we point out to the danger this modern infatuation for demolishing timeless old Lebanese architectural beauties is.
