Choufani (Metal Artwork)

Choufani Co. is a metal artwork company that had been established since 1987 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, by Lebanese businessman Walid Choufani. Mr Choufani is a member of the Lebanese Business Council of Abu Dhabi.^[1] He has also been mentioned in the Who's Who 1997 annual publication.^[2]

Choufani mostly produces ornamental wrought iron grill works, balconies, boundary walls, windows, dining tables, bedroom sets and chairs^[3] though it has recently developed a new concept that would also embody other mediums in their showroom displays.

Branches

Choufani's original showroom is in Abu Dhabi. However its new branch opened up in Khalifa City early 2010. Later that year, popular Arabic magazine Zahrat Al-Khaleej published an article on the new concept that had been developed in the Khalifa showroom, describing the place as "neither completely Western nor Eastern, but that which gives the visitor a calm and peaceful feeling, despite the different colors and styles that had been blended together.^[4][5]
