Marc Baroud, born in Lebanon in 1978, is a cross-disciplinary designer splitting his practice between Beirut and Paris. His work spans furniture, interiors, scenography and brand development, so a project can run from a single table to the setting it sits in. In 2012 he founded the design department at the Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts (ALBA). His furniture is held in the collections of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and mudac in Lausanne. A typical piece is the Dot to Dots coffee table, which pairs lacquered steel with Verde Laguna marble and was shown in the design exhibition at Beirut Art Center. The piece shows his habit of pairing industrial finishes with natural stone.
