Founded in 1963 under a different name, Bank of Beirut’s 5-branch bank was acquired in 1993 by a group of bankers and businessmen headed by current Chairman and CEO. Today, Bank of Beirut operates 90 branches across 4 continents that include over 60 branches in Lebanon. In 2014, it was recognized as the “Fastest Growing Bank in Lebanon” by Banker Middle East.
Our relationship with the Bank of Beirut dates back to 2004 with the Bank of Beirut (P1) commission in Chtaura , and in 2015, still expanding, our mission with the bank consisted of a complete architectural identity package for 10 new branches across Lebanon. The interventions range from new independent structures to the adoption of the architectural features on existing locations throughout the country.
Our schemes translate the bank’s ambitious implementation strategy through highly visible urban interventions, with the use of prominent structural elements and materiality, and emphasized by the grand flags planted to claim each territory.
