Organized by Beyt and Plan BEY
Beyt:
A guesthouse set in carefully restored traditional homes.
With locations in Mar Mikhael, Clemenceau, and soon Deir el Qamar, each Beyt offers different lodging units, a natural outdoor garden and regularly programmed exhibitions and food events.
Beyt Amir, located in Clemenceau, is a traditional late Ottoman house built around 1915 and one of the last symbols of Beirut’s architectural heritage, a rarity in a city constantly in a state of change.
Plan BEY:
An artisan-publisher of artists’ multiples, books, and prints, Plan BEY has 3 boutiques in Beirut which feature its own editions and publications that have been developed in its design and production workshop, in direct collaboration with Beirut-based artists.
