    Richard Yasmine
    5 Picks from PHILIA Collection

    Richard Yasmine is a Lebanese interior architect and product designer currently completing a new master’s degree in Art Criticism and Curating. Drawing from his vivid imagination, he creates objects reflecting the essence of his hometown, Beirut, blending life, emotions, nature, and the human experience. His designs explore the dynamics of social life, taboos, and the rich cultural tapestry of the Levant. He combines internal chaos with innate sensitivity, pushing boundaries and challenging conventions while maintaining a minimalist, bold, and authentic approach. His fondness for geometric shapes adds a distinctive character to his work, often merging reality and imagination.

    Demonstrating his dedication to creativity, Richard integrates Lebanese craftsmanship into his designs, merging diverse elements and blending tradition with contemporary influences. More than a designer, he is a storyteller, crafting meaningful narratives to convey his vision and identity. His work has made a significant impact on the global design scene, with creations showcased at prestigious events worldwide. Notably, he has exhibited at Milan Design Week (2016–2023), Paris Design Week, Dubai Design Week, and other renowned platforms. His collections have consistently garnered attention from leading blogs and magazines.

    “This collection was created for a significant occasion, embodying the resilience of my city. It has since become our best-selling line and a source of inspiration for many others.”

    “I love incorporating the beauty of nature into a design object, especially the sense of balance it evokes in this piece.”
    “Raw yet refined, extruded forms that glow with their own quiet radiance, even without the candles.”
    “A throne in its own right, radiating the majesty of a king, it embodies dignity and regal authority with effortless grace.”

    “Minimal, raw, and profoundly present, this is Rick Owens.”
