ABOUT ME ARCHITECTURE STUDENT BASED IN BEIRUT, LEBANON. INTERESTED IN THE NOTIONS OF CYBERNETICS, OBJECT-ORIENTED ONTOLOGY [OOO] AND AS WELL IN THE NOTION OF AESTHETICS WHICH DESCRIBES OUR RELATION TO THE WORLD WITH ATMOSPHERES. MY FOCUS ON EXPERIMENTAL/SPECULATIVE DESIGN IS TO EXPLORE THE BOUNDARIES OF ARCHITECTURE AND REPRESENTATION AND THE ROLE OF DRAWING WITHIN THE DISCOURSE OF VISIONARY SPACE.

sampling IN SEARCH FOR SPATIAL-LINGUISTIC ARCHITECTONICS...

THE IDEA OF THE PROJECT IS TO COMBINE TRADITIONAL MILITARY STRATEGIES WITH FUTURIST TECHNOLOGY THEREFORE AUGMENTING THE EXISTING TERRITORY THAT IS MANIPULATED STRATEGICALLY WITH FORTIFIED MECHANICAL PROSTHESIS AND THUS COMES THE NOTION OF PROSTHETIC BASE WITH TRANSFORMATIVE QUALITIES. SO, THE FIRST STEP INTO CREATING NEW SPATIAL-LINGUISTIC ARCHITECTONICS IS BY SAMPLING UNDESIRABLE MECHANICAL OBJECTS FROM A JUNKYARD AND CREATING A NEW REPERTOIRE OF OBJECT-ORIENTED ONTOLOGY [OOO] THIS MECHANICAL REPERTOIRE IS THEN PROGRAMMED AND COMBINED WITH ITSELF AND THE TERRITORY AND THUS CREATING A NEW MECHANICAL TRANSFORMATIVE ENTITY.

prosthesis THE PROJECT EXPLORES THE IDEA OF A MILITARY BARRACKS BY REACTING INSTEAD OF BEING, ITS LOCATION PRODUCES AND REACTS TO ITS ENVIRONMENT BY ITSELF. IN THIS CASE RESULTING IN A NEW SYNTHETIC MACHINE WHICH ITSELF PRODUCES NEW SYNTHETIC STRATEGIES BY COLLECTING DATA FROM ITS SURROUNDINGS AND CONSEQUENTLY, CREATING A HYPER-EFFICIENT TOPOGRAPHY BY HYBRIDIZING WITH ITS RESULTING TERRITORY A HETERO ENVIRONMENT BETWEEN TRADITIONAL MILITARY STRATEGY AND TECHNOLOGICAL STRATEGIES AVANT-GARDE. CONSEQUENTLY, THE PROJECT BECOMES A WEAPON ITSELF.

Program THE PROSTHETIC BASE CONSISTS OF A TERRAIN MANIPULATED STRATEGICALLY INTO THREE PLATFORMS ON THREE DIFFERENT LEVELS AND THE AUGMENTED BY DIFFERENT PROGRAMMED MECHANICAL PARTS AND INTERCONNECTED WITH FORTIFIED MECHANICAL TUNNELS. DIFFERENT ZONES ARE CONCEIVED FOR DIFFERENT PROGRAMS AND THUS FORTIFIED BY THICK WALLS PLACED STRATEGICALLY INSIDE THE BASE TERRITORY AND ALSO AROUND IT, WITH SOMME OPENINGS THAT CAN BE USED FOR SHOOTING RANGE. THE PROGRAM CONSISTS OF A MAIN BUILDING, NIGHT ZONE FOR OFFICERS AND GENERALS, A BUNKER UNDER A CONTROL TOWER, ANNEX AND OFFICERS CLUB, A TRAINING ZONE, SOLDIERS COURT AND ITS FLAG.

CYBER-NIGHTMARE

THE ANIMATED DYSTOPIAN ARCHITECTURE ORGANISM CONSISTS OF HUMAN FLESH AND MACHINERY PROSTHETICS IN A FAILED GORY FORM, BROKEN JOINTS, BONES AND MACHINERY. AND THUS, THE OTHERWORLDLINESS OF THE CHARACTER DENIES THE ANTHROPO-CENTRIC SUBJECT-OBJECT RELATIONSHIP.

MUTATION

BY BECOME CYBORGS WE'LL EVOLVE, THAT'S HOW IT’ S BEEN SINCE THE BEGINNING OF HUMAN ANTHROPOLOGY, WE CREATE TOOLS TO ASSIST US, TOOLS AS EXTENSION OF OUR ORGANS, BUT TODAY, WE ARE AT THE TURNING POINT IN HUMAN HISTORY, IT'S THE DEATH OF HUMANISM, HUMANITY IS BECOMING A GOD WITH THE POWER OF DESTRUCTION BEYOND IMAGINATION, THE TOOLS OF TODAY WILL DETERMINE THE FATE OF TOMORROW, THE CYBERNETIC EXPERIMENT WILL EITHER FAIL OR SUCCEED. IN BEIRUT, A CORRUPT SYSTEM HUNGRY FOR POWER IS INVADING ITS INSTITUTION, CREATURES SPREADING LIKE A VIRUS, STEALING ANY LAST BREATH IN YOUR LUNGS TO CREATE ITS OWN EMPIRE WITH IT, IT'S THE CYBERNETIC FAILURE.

PARASITE THE ORGANISM IS INTRODUCED TO ITS HOST IN ITS PRIMITIVE FORM BY AN EXTERNAL INTERVENTION STATING IT WILL ACCELERATE ENERGY PRODUCTION AND BENEFIT PEOPLES BUT INSTEAD, IT INVADES ITS HOST AND GROWS BIGGER EACH DAY BY POWERING ITSELF WITH ENERGY INSTEAD OF PROVIDING IT TO THE PEOPLES.

WE ARE HYBRIDS OF EMERGENT LIMBS AND MACHINING GEAR OUR MODERNIST ELECTRICITY DUALLY BARN BLOCK HOST IS OF NO COMPETENCE BUT ONLY INSTRUMENTAL FOR PARASITIC PROLIFERATION. WE ARE THE TOXIC ANTIDOTE OF A GRID INTENDED FOR VISCERAL CONTAMINATION SADISTIC SPATIAL INTERCOURSE VIRULENT THREE-DIMENSIONAL GROWTH MALIGNANT LEAKING IN POWER RELATION. CAN YOU FEEL THE INTRINSIC ELECTROMAGNETIC DISCHARGE OF DEPRIVATION?" - SAMER EID

[ACADEMIC] - ALBA - ATAR1304-02 - ESPACE PUBLIC [FR] - PUBLIC SPACE + PARKING - 06.04.21 - 2021 © STUDIO CRITIC: PIERRE RABBAT WITH THE IDEA OF MATCHING THE PUBLIC SQUARE TO THE ARCHITECTURE AND LANDSCAPE OF THE CITY OF BEIRUT; THIS PROJECT CONCERNS THE DESIGN OF A MULTIFUNCTIONAL PLACE; AN URBAN MARKET, A PLACE OF THEATRICAL BROADCAST, A CULTURAL EXHIBITION SPACE AND PUBLIC PARKING. SURFACE: 4412M2

mind maps TODAY, IN THE FOG OF THE PANDEMIC, OUR WORLD HAS MOVED FROM RELIANCE ON THE PHYSICAL WORLD TO THE VIRTUAL WORLD IN MOST OF ITS ASPECTS. THE INTERNET WAS ONCE THE ESCAPE FROM REALITY, BUT NOW THE PHYSICAL WORLD HAS BECOME THE ESCAPE. WITH THE VIRTUALITY OF THINGS THAT DISTANCE MAN FROM REAL REALITY; WITH THE INTERNET OF THINGS, WHICH COULD TOTALLY BLUR THE NOTION OF “ DISTANCE” ; HOW COULD WE ARCHITECTS BE SO CONFIDENT THAT ARCHITECTURE WOULD STILL BE FOUND IN A FIELD OF MORTAR OR BRICKS? IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN HUMAN EXISTENCE, TECHNOLOGICAL SINGULARITY MUST BE ACCOMPANIED

BY CULTURAL SINGULARITY.

human+nature THE DATA LAYOUT AND PROGRAMMED SPATIAL ELEMENTS CONSISTING OF A HUMAN-NATURE REPERTORY IS USED TO CREATE AN URBAN LANDSCAPE ON THE SURFACE OPEN FROM ALL DIRECTIONS, SHAPED BY THE PEOPLES. IT'S THE PEOPLES THAT CREATES LIFE THE CITY AND BUILDINGS COME NEXT AS AUGMENTATION TO THE URBAN LANDSCAPE. THE FORMAL LANDSCAPE SERVES AS A ESCAPISM PORTAL INTO AN URBAN CHARACTER WHERE THE ANTHROPOCENTRIC SUBJECT-OBJECT RELATIONSHIP FAILS AND THE ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS ARE REIMAGINED. FOR EXAMPLE, ELEMENTS LIKE A CEILING CAN BE PROGRAMMED WITH FORM AND LIGHT, AND THEREFORE WALLS AND CEILINGS BECOME A CONTINUATION OF THE URBAN LANDSCAPE.

/ scenario 1

/ scenario 2

/ scenario 3

THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF THREE DIFFERENT SCENARIOS:

SCENARIO 1 CONSISTS OF BIO-MARKET KIOSKS.

SCENARIO 2 CONSISTS OF A FREE SPACE THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE CONCERTS AND FESTIVALS.

SCENARIO 3 CONSISTS OF AN ART EXHIBITION SPACE.

THE THREE SCENARIOS CAN BE WORKING INDEPENDENTLY AT THE SAME TIME.

[ACADEMIC] - ALBA - ATAR1304-03 -ATAR1302-03 - UNE MAISON INDIVIDUELLE [FR] - TWO VILLAS WITH COMMON SPACE - 04.05.21 & 01.06.21 - 2021 © STUDIO CRITIC: SAMER EID INTERIOR CRITIC: GREGORY TAOUSSON THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF TWO VILLAS FOR TWO BROTHER WITH A COMMON SPACE ON A SLOPPY TERRAINS OF OLD PINES AT NAAS BIKFAYA. SURFACE: 4000M2 COS: 0.2/0.4

anti-pristine THE SITE IS IN A FOREST OF ANCIENT PINES, WHICH MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO BUILD ANYTHING PRISTINE. OVER TIME, THE PROJECT INTENDS TO TAKE THE QUALITIES OF ITS ENVIRONMENT AND FURTHER EXPLORE THE CONCEPT WHICH SUGGESTS THAT IT IS POSSIBLE FOR ARCHITECTURE TO BECOME SOMETHING DISCOVERABLE. THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF TWO VILLAS INTERCONNECTED BY A COMMON SPACE BELOW, THE FIRST VILLA EMERGES FROM THE GROUND IN MURAL EFFECT ON THE OTHER HAND THE OTHER IS AERIAL AND CUTS THE NATURAL LANDSCAPE AGGRESSIVELY SEVERAL SPATIAL, LUMINOUS, PROGRAMMATIC AND CIRCULATION DEVICES INCREASE THE PROJECT BY CREATING SEVERAL SPATIAL SEQUENCES.

bucolic AND SO, THE PROJECT IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE THE ARCHITECTURAL RELATIONSHIP WITH ITS BUCOLIC NATURAL ENVIRONMENT BY EXAGGERATING THE SITE WITH DECAYING MASONRY WHICH INTENDS TO MERGE WITH ITS NATURAL SURROUNDINGS. OVER TIME, THE PROJECT INTENDS TO TAKE ON THE QUALITIES OF A RUIN AND FURTHER EXPLORES THE PHILOSOPHICAL CONCEPT OF OBJECT-ORIENTED ONTOLOGY WHICH SUGGESTS THAT IT IS POSSIBLE FOR ARCHITECTURE TO BECOME SOMETHING DISCOVERABLE AND MYSTERIOUS. THE FORMAL LANDSCAPES CHARACTER WHERE THE ANTHROPOCENTRIC SUBJECT-OBJECT RELATIONSHIP FAILS RESUSCITATES THE LOST RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMAN AND NATURE.

villa 1 interior THE VILLA IN QUESTION IS A MASS OF WALLS WHICH INK ON THE SLOPE AGGRESSIVELY AND ATTACH TO THE EARTH WITH A MASCULINE AND ANTI-PRISTINE CHARACTER, THE INTENTION IS THAT THE NATURAL SURROUNDINGS WILL INVADE THE TOTAL MASS OF THE PROJECT OVER TIME. THE PROJECT ALSO INSISTS ON THE BRUTAL NOTION OF THE MATERIAL AS FOUND AND THE INTERIOR INTERVENTION WILL BE A CONTINUATION OF THE INITIAL DESIGN AND SO GREAT IMPORTANCE IS GIVEN TO THE SENSORIALITY OF THE MATERIALS, SOUND, COLORS AND NATURAL EXPERIENCE IN CREATING A BRUTAL MOOD BASED ON EXPERIENCE AND AWARENESS.
