We contributed to the Upcycling Tree Art initiative by Green Cedar Lebanon, an environmental organisation dedicated to reforestation and ecological restoration across the country. Using colourful wood veneer and tin inlay applied to reclaimed tree cross-sections, we created a piece that told the story of a pine tree community, the relationships and interconnections that make a forest more than a collection of individual trees. All proceeds from the sale of contributed works went directly to Green Cedar Lebanon's reforestation programme.

We were featured in Mojeh Magazine, a leading luxury and fashion publication based in the Gulf, in a conversation about craft, identity, and what it means to make objects rooted in a specific culture for a global audience. We talked about how marquetry and the other techniques we use in our studio are not just decorative choices but ways of carrying Arab material culture forward into new forms and new contexts. The conversation touched on why home, as an idea, travels with you wherever you go, and how the objects around you reflect who you are and where you come from.

Our work was included in a touring edition of Beirut: The Eras of Design, a landmark exhibition tracing the political, social, and cultural forces that shaped Lebanese design from the post-war period through to the present. The show examined how Lebanese designers have consistently produced work of international significance despite, and sometimes because of, the turbulence of the country's recent history. Being included was a recognition that our studio is part of a longer and deeper design story specific to Beirut and Lebanon.
