A welcome byproduct of Geha’s approach, is the transformation of
the nightlife scene in Beirut. Renowned for his work on restaurant
and bar projects, his concept for Off&On, a glamorous speakeasy
hidden behind the wall of an old-fashioned barbershop, changed
the game in 2015.
The success of the club led to his work on Uberhaus, today an
international destination for electronic music fans.
Designs for bar and restaurant 40 Kong as well as other venues
are currently in the works. By 2017, Geha will have established a
nightlife circuit; from rooftop cocktail bars to speakeasy venues.
When he is not at the office or on site, the architect is often in his
studio at l'Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts (ALBA). In 2006, he
launched an experiment-driven and research-oriented workshop
to challenge interior architecture and design majors.
