Joy Alexandre is a co-founder of JYH International Architects. JYH was founded by Architects Joy Alexandre Harb & Yanna Haddad, both having initiated their studies at the Lebanese American University in Lebanon. After graduating with Honors, their quest to get more involved with advanced architecture led them to Barcelona, the capital of Architecture & Design. It is at the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) that they received their Master’s degree alongside all the passion for innovation-oriented architecture, and enough imagination to shape the future of cities. Our vision evolves around advanced technologies with the idea of space adapting to the need. We focus on exploring the effect of this technology in our daily life and how it helps shape the architecture we live in. By doing so, we can simulate the feelings intended in the space, and create comfort or any other desired emotion. Hence the choice of the architecture reflects directly on one’s lifestyle.

Interior architecture & design

Art and design have always marveled me, for that reason I chose to study architecture where I discovered that there is more than just building a beautiful exterior or just thinking architecture as an investment. It is about creating spaces where art and design can be expressed in multiple ways and thought as one element combining the exterior and the interior. In addition, I am a strong believer in the ability and the impact of the architecture and research combined with design thinking for strengthening our societies and having a positive effect on the world Among other things, I am fascinated by lighting design, set designs and event design planning as well as my passion for photography. Therefore, I am planning to expand my knowledge in the scenography field that combines all these elements and gain more experience in it
