Ask where a large artificial olive tree in Lebanon came from and the answer usually stops at a shipping container. We built our studio the other way round — a workshop in Jdeideh with the showroom attached — because the decisions that make greenery convincing are made during fabrication.
Why the olive is the tree Lebanese interiors keep asking for — what makes an artificial one convincing, how to size it to your ceiling, and what to settle before you order one made to measure.
Which greenery survives a Lebanese dining room and which quietly dies — a practical guide to light, airflow, maintenance and where custom artificial trees, green walls and planters earn their place.
Bark is the part of a tree people stand closest to — and the part that decides whether an artificial olive tree reads as real. Here is why we build on preserved natural olive trunks, where moulded trunks give themselves away, and when a fabricated trunk is the better answer.
Inside a custom olive tree build: measuring the space, selecting a preserved natural trunk, shaping the canopy, weighting the base, and hand-applying foliage — the seven stages behind a tree that reads as real.
