Chic furniture: Versace Home opens in Beirut

Versace Home opened one of its flagship furniture and home accessory galleries in the Saifi neighborhood of Downtown Beirut this week, filling its two-room space with the brand’s hybrid of modern and elaborate neoclassical.

The furniture gallery opened in Beirut on the heels of a related project in the Downtown Solidere area to construct an apartment building exclusively furnished from Versace’s home collections. The luxury Italian brand is based in Milan and best known for its designer clothing.

As the Versace gallery opens to the public, interior designers are furnishing a 28-storey high rise Damac Tower under construction in Solidere exclusively from Versace Home. The residential tower will offer grand, furnished apartments to the elite from around the region.

“People living in Lebanon are extremely stylish and are familiar with global fashion houses and luxury goods brands,” said Ziad al-Chaar, from Damac Luxury, the Middle East franchise of Versace Home.

“The Versace Home boutique will provide an avenue for those wishing to extend their love of the fashion brand to their home decor.”
