platau | platform for architecture and urbanism is a collaborative practice that uses architecture as a medium to engage cultural, social and environmental concerns.
Co-founded by Boulos Doueihy, Sandra Frem, and Romeo Chahine, platau is based between France and Lebanon and acts as a platform for design, research and activism. Our work spans various scales, typologies, and contexts that aim to integrate architecture, landscape and territory and draw deep connections to local cultures, climates and histories.
Each project is an experimentation towards new spatial potentials and a negotiation of multiple systems to provide an architecture that contributes to the discussion on material culture, responsible design methods, and novel expressions/ inhabitations.
The practice has originated multiple consultancies and self-initiated projects with NGOs and municipalities in Lebanon as a way to channel architecture’s agency into projects that re-invent how we live, work and experience the world together.
platau’s consistently high-quality work is enabled by its founders’ transdisciplinary experiences. The practice has garnered recognition through numerous awards nominations like Archmarathon Awards, Arab Architects Awards, and Archdaily Building of the year.
platau’s work has been exhibited widely including the Venice Architecture Biennale, the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism, Beirut Design Week, and the Abroyan Factory in Beirut.
