House of Arts & Cuture of Beirut

Beirut / Lebanon

2009

Area: 16.500,00 sqm.

 

We interpret the House of Arts and Culture of Beirut as a “Box of Events”, conceived of as a Box of Events coated with an environmental protection membrane in which cedar of Lebanon leaf branch (tree present on the Lebanese flag) symbolically embraces the building and visitors, letting permeate and transpire their events.

We propose a friendly, extrovert and generously  building opened to the center of the city that rebuilt itself, in order to stimulate the encounter and the social communication as a way to promote and instigate the most diverse expressions, cultural and artistic manifestations.

 

International Competition.
