22 Bernard Khoury
In the late 1980s, Bernard Khoury came to the US from Lebanon to study architecture at RISD and Harvard, then returned to establish his practice in Beirut in the mid-1990s. His father was a prominent modernist architect during Beirut\u2019s booming pre-civil war years, and much of Khoury\u2019s work somehow engages with Lebanon\u2019s post-war urbanity. We spoke about his time at Harvard, studying \u201cwar architecture\u201d with Lebbeus Woods, and how his practice is a constant reevaluation of how architecture can reflect upon, and come to terms with, the traumas of war.
