    Default Material distinction


    For a couple in Beirut, designer Joe Serrins worked counter to local expectations of gilding and palatial details, favoring a modern, subtle treatment. Above: In the entrance hall, a photo by Abelardo Morell leans against the custom carved gypsum wall bearing a map of
    Beirut.

    I don't usually go for pastels but the sofas on the terrace work really well. Everything in the dining room goes in the dumpster, especially that nasty 1970s framed Athena poster thing.

    Great spaces and views, but do not like what they did with it. Alot of that furniture looks like it belongs in a Dr's office waiting room.
