RASEM BADRAN The Narrative of the place
In recent decades of increasing shifts in ideological and socio-cultural trends, architecture continues to be a vehicle of pluralistic expression. As a young architect developing design skills becomes a challenge of finding your own voice among the crowd. But, as with any new skill, you are best positioned to succeed when you build on the successes of others.
At the end of this process it is required to develop a program and design a specific project in the “spirit� of the chosen architect, taking on their philosophical, ideological and architectural role.
