About

When geometry meets poetry.

Nathalie Gharbi — portrait

Nathalie Gharbi is a Lebanese designer and founder of Nathalie Gharbi Design — a studio dedicated to collectible functional art.

Her work stands at the intersection of sculpture and architecture, where geometry meets poetry. She creates strictly limited editions that transcend utility and assert themselves as spatial presences. Conceived by Nathalie and realized in close collaboration with her atelier, each piece explores transformation, resilience, and structural clarity through noble materials — cast aluminum, brass, resin, painted glass, and onyx marble.

Her debut collection, Clé d'Or, was presented at Beirut Design Fair, Arena Seaside in September 2019 — the fair's final edition — marking her entry into the international design scene. Her second body of work, the Molten collection, is presented in 2026 at Le Yacht Club — Beirut, Zaitunay Bay, deepening her research through fire, material memory, and permanence.

Her practice situates contemporary design within a refined sculptural discourse, positioning functional objects as collectible works of art.


“In this work, I do not celebrate perfection. I honor survival.”
