The Rachid Karami International Fair in Tripoli, Lebanon, designed by Brazilian modernist Oscar Niemeyer, exemplifies the Neues Bauen aesthetic with its bold geometric forms and functionalist principles. Conceived as a fairground complex, the site showcases Niemeyer's characteristic use of curved and angular volumes, reflecting his signature architectural language. Recognized as a World Heritage Site, the fair represents a significant work of twentieth-century modernism in the Middle East and stands as a testament to international architectural exchange during its era.
