After the tragic fire that destroyed Rikky’z years ago, the restaurant’s revival became not only a project of resilience but also a reinvention in line with modern engineering and safety standards. Green Gears, a leader in sustainable construction and metal fabrication, was at the forefront of this transformation, overseeing the redesign and construction of Rikky’z using a full steel structure. This robust material not only ensured fire resistance and structural integrity but also allowed the restaurant to retain its iconic mountain lodge atmosphere.
Green Gears carefully balanced the use of steel with aesthetic and functional goals, crafting a venue that mirrored the warmth and charm of the original wood architecture while enhancing its safety and durability. Every element, from the foundational supports to the interior steelwork, was crafted to withstand both environmental elements and the restaurant’s busy nightlife events. This meticulous reconstruction showcases Green Gears’ commitment to sustainable and resilient building practices, turning Rikky’z into a model of innovative architecture in Lebanon’s hospitality scene.
Through Green Gears’ expertise, Rikky’z has returned stronger than ever, offering guests a beautifully crafted, fire-safe venue that maintains the rustic charm and breathtaking views that make it a favorite mountain retreat.
