Etymologically speaking, 'DAR', a word that refers to a HOUSE in Arabic, is embodied by the warm, homey feeling that envelops the guests staying at this establishment. 'ALMA', which means SOUL in Spanish, hints at the positive spirit permeating the entire hotel, which allows our guests to take a few days off from the hustle and bustle of their daily lives, and reconnect with their selves. The owner's mother's name is 'Alma' and her home is right next to the Hotel. The Hotel's brand identity has been designed in alignment with the interior design concept.

4. Hand made lighting and furniture using old techniques of furniture making
5. Hand made wall stenciling  with water based paints VOC free
6. Local hand silk-screened patterned cushions with eco-friendly dyes
7. Soft Color scheme with earthy tones to create a sanctuary feel
8. Plenty of natural light and sea views for Well-being

Dar Alma Boutique Hotel sits in the southern city of Tyre, a UNESCO world heritage site overflowing with history and a decidedly Lebanese atmosphere. Tyre, home of the Dar Alma Boutique Hotel, is an ancient Phoenician city. The Building is restored to it's original glory with modern extensions and fittings. Everything has been carefully selected and made to measure to suite the authentic style of the building with a modern feel and comfort level. 

The hotel's Accessibility and circulation has been well studied to make use of the location and the beach. Dar Alma, close to Tyre's Phoenician harbor, is accessible through this famous old town's picturesque narrow streets. This guest house will give you the feel of what it's like to live in Tyre. Pedestrian alleys surround it, thus offering you a feeling of tranquility away from the droning noises of the city. The hotel also has a beach terrace and sun deck with direct access to the pristine beaches of this southern coastline, which allows guest to dip their toes in the crystalline waters of the Mediterranean, and swim with our hotel mascots, the turtles of Tyre.

MOLTEN, is a European chain of naturally flavored  Macaroon Ice-cream, which also sells natural candy. The project was aimed to create a series of designs for the chain to highlight it's unique identity  without being an exact replica of each other. 

Some chains offers gift boxes and deserts and while some are cafes. The brand aims to offer healthy treats and gifts, as well as  seating for in-house ice-cream, deserts, coffee, tea and juices. 

The design is inspired by the shapes of molten ice-cream. The candy and desert display has a bubbly playful effect and the shapes in the ceiling are enticing the symphony of ice cream flavors in one's mouth. The materials will mostly be white washed woods with strikes of vibrant pastels, to balance excitement with a soothing atmosphere. The seating area is casual  comfort yet more sophisticated than the usual standing ice cream bar.
