WATERFRONT BEIRUT: The Waves

Waterfront Beirut is one of the most beautiful docks and promenades in Beirut, offering its visitors or tourists to the city an escape for outdoor activities, although its surroundings have other cultural entertainment that is part of the very famous happy lifestyle of the Lebanese, recognized by the world.

Walking along this walkway is an individual or family therapy that we can give ourselves every day. Its routes, almost one and a half kilometers long and almost one and a half meters wide, can be enjoyed not only walking but also running, cycling, skating, meditating or simply sitting and contemplating the surroundings.

Its spectacular views of the sea and the mountains allow us to connect with nature, the intense blue of the sea, the sound of the waves, sometimes subtle and other times a little louder when the waves arrive and hit the gray concrete structure of the pier.

That is why we have decided this time to stop here to continue this adventure that we call ETRO HOME in Lebanon, and show you the similarities between both Lebanese and Italian cultures, placing the house’s new sofa, called EASE, in the center of this scenario.

This sofa has a minimalist and modern atmosphere, its upholstery in a vigorous blue color and the new WAVES fabric, from the ETRO collection, was the perfect selection to center it in the middle of the distinctive architecture of the pier, where a wavy pattern stands out on the one hand. In gray concrete along the space and on the other side of the pier a blue metal structure that moves towards the edge of the earth, adorned at the top etched with ocean symbols on the concrete.

The architectural pattern described, with the natural movement of sea waves, combines perfectly with the artistic movement of the EASE sofa, having Lebanon skyline as a background.

Like the place, this sofa invites you to enjoy it alone, with family or friends. Its modules were conceived with the purpose of creating a multitude of combinations by associating them with each other. It is the perfect piece for any living room or family room.

We were impressed with the photographic images we captured. I hope you enjoyed this beautiful trip to the Beirut Waterfront, let me know your comments and what place you would like us to showcase through AD HOME’s social media channels of our beautiful Lebanon for the next blog.
