THE MIDORI TALE. Midori s journey started with a firm resolve; the aim was to create a diverse, vibrant community of like-minded individuals, fanatics of green landscapes who appreciate the beauty of literature and the arts and culture. Exclusive home seekers looking for a splendid residence with magnificent views will discover in Midori a harmony that combines a perfect hybrid of artistry and design. Midori incorporates modern modular apartments along with a vertical garden, making for an environment where city and nature share one living space. The appellation Midori did not spring up haphazardly, the word stands for green in Japanese, which represents a precise illustration of the project, but the word also refers to one s inner desire for a stable, loving family or community, and a need to work with others and be appreciated. 04 Midori _ the Midori tale
Hippodrome View THE LOCATION. Ashrafieh View Located in one of Beirut s most desirable neighbourhoods, Badaro, Midori is set on a quiet and uptown avenue, on the corner of Museum and Mdaour street.

THE CONCEPT. Midori unveils an illustration of Mediterranean modern living; a creative and contemporary design that moulds together nature and an urban environment. The architect s desire was to pull the scenic surrounding landscape into the living spaces themselves, creating a harmonious fusion between the indoors and outdoors. Midori s interiors are breathy and generous and blend with the picturesque vicinity forging a continuity that goes beyond the external skin. Dominating the skyline, Midori s 3.45m floor-to-ceiling facades create a sense of grandeur in the space, enabling an unmatched experience with the natural light. Free flowing vegetated cantilevered screens surround Midori. Serving as sun breakers, the metal mesh unfolds the rays in magnificent ways. An authentic vertical landscape, nothing short of a green oasis, Midori offers you the opportunity to gaze out at a pictorial setting that is your own, a privately kept green plot. Midori is a warm and intimate haven; it is the paragon of a healthy, sustainable and community-building lifestyle.
THE ARCHITECTURE. Midori is a vibrant building with multiple uses; a space where you can live, work and relax; a beacon for the modern city. Shaped in the form of a ziggurat, Midori spires over 12 storeys and offers a comfortable environment with diverse spatial configurations ranging from 85 to 325 sqm. A vast drop-off area welcomes you into Midori s entrance hall. The sophisticated lobby comprises a gym, a kids space and a common area allowing you to make the transition from the chaotic rush of a busy day to the measured steps of a leisurely private entrance. The transparent lobby facades frame the interior courtyard, providing a tantalising glimpse of what lies beyond the hall s threshold, a gravel garden with a water pond. Midori s architecture evokes a refined lifestyle; a witty, elegant and self-enclosed space of privileged consumption for single professionals, newlyweds or families that enjoy the pleasures of a gracious environment.
