The Site was located at the Beruit Port affected by the Accidental blast, which destroyed most of its infrastructure, and the port became a ground zero for one of the worst tragedies faced by Lebanon.
The idea of this project was to create design iterations as fast as possible, along with thinking about construction techniques and feasibility of material given the conditions on site.
An edge on the port was selected to facilitate recreational activities on that front, creating a shelter for activities to happen below, having larger spans and more free space below, thus creating a much better transition between the outside and inside.
These factors and the flow of people throughout the site allowed us to reiterate the form of the structure, along with material and construction factors, these parameters strongly dictated the form and member intervals of the structure, creating relevant details and how the structural members work was also one of the factors.
