White Walls Gallery is a Beirut-based gallery and design store founded by Sandra Batri, Mayssam Wehbe, and William Wehbe. The gallery endured many hardships throughout the last year and a half, including inflation, social unrest, and the devastating Beruit explosion in August 2020.
Following the explosion, the building was decimated. White Walls Gallery rebuilt its space and is celebrating its reopening with the Rising Sun collection. Symbolic of the city's resilience, the Rising Sun collection includes three items: The Room Separator, The Side Table Set, and The Flora Holder Set. All items in the collection are produced in Lebanon. Each piece provides a sculptural aesthetic, ideal for the modern home. The collection plays with lines and curves for a soft design.
