City Guides with an eye for people. Beyroutes a guidebook to Beirut, one of the grand capitals of the Middle East. Beyroutes presents an exploded view of a city which lives so many double lives and figures in so many truths, myths and historical falsifications. Visiting the city with this intimate book as your guide makes you feel disoriented, appreciative and perhaps eventually reconciliatory. This guide is an initiative by Studio Beirut and contains many photos in colour and illustrations by, amongst others, Jan Rothuizen. The collaboration which led to 'Beyroutes', started with Archis RSVP # 10, Unbuilt Beirut, in November 2006.
