After completing his graduate studies in architecture (Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris) and earning a Masters’ degree in urban planning with honors at Columbia University, Nabil Gholam joined Ricardo Bofill’s Taller de Arquitectura, and brought to completion a broad range of projects in over 20 countries. In 1994 Nabil Gholam decided to set up his own practice and founded Nabil Gholam architecture & planning (NGAP) in Beirut. In parallel with ngª’s growing reach, a European office has been established in Barcelona in 2006 and relocated to Seville in 2010 in order to direct the firm’s international ventures.
