INTRO
November 2019, an accidental fire ravages exotica’s warehouse - Lebanon’s leading flower shop, burning down its
entire inventory.
We found ourselves with hundreds of burnt pots that had no monetary value.
We saw in our burnt pots the perfect metaphor for the lebanese people. inspired by them, we created the #wetheunburnt initiative to honor their resilience, and bring them together to help replant the burnt forests of lebanon.
