    It is the 10th annual celebration of creativity and talent for RHU Design Department. The annual Graphic Design Exhibition – DECADE, trespassed the boundaries of an ordinary showcase of talent by reflecting the core values of innovation and talent that RHU upholds and fulfills.

     

     

    Opening its doors in Downtown Beirut Souks on Thursday July 11, 2019 at 6:00 p.m., DECADE showcased the amazing graphic design students’ creative projects including the senior projects of the graduating class. RHU congratulates its senior graphic design students Ms. Razan Mikdash, Ms. Youmna Osseiran, Ms. Aya Karout, and Mr. Omar Mougharbel for the amazing design concepts that were embellished with smart visuals reflecting a high degree of aptitude and skill.
