Detox center Alba 2013
Detox is the new trend and the detox center will be the first center opening in Beyrouth. This detox center have many nutrisionist and a healthy cooking part, aims to let the client feel good while eating healthy. Its a clinical place with professional that can give you a diet program based on analysis. My idea here was inspired by the shape, the texture of an agrume.

The restaurant Alba 2014
Alain Ducass, the famous french chief, opens a french restaurant in Beyrouth. The recommended ambiance is “Chic” and “Decontracter”. Inspired by a maze in wich you can get lost and found to create different spaces, some more private than others, the restaurant offers mainly 4 different areas in the ground floor including a private dinning room and in the mezznine floor a lounge with its bar. I used the vertical circulation, the U stair, to work on a better circulation in all the space. My concept is illustrated on the stair box with lighting elements embeded in the mirror.

Residence Alba 2014
An asrtist couple with their two children, move to a new appartement in the 27th floor of a tour located in the downtown. They needed to have private places for everyone in the place with at the same time communicating spaces. I was inspired by the movement of the rubik cube for the circulation in the appartement. I created a volume separated by a passerelle wich give a privacy for each part of the residence. Ground floor - Plan

“Etincelles” scenohraphy project Alba 2014
Agenda culturel beyrtouh article “Samedi 1er juin se tenait la première représentation de l’année dans le Palais de Beiteddine, celle des étudiants de deuxième année des arts décoratifs de l’université de l’Alba, représentation maintenant iconique et très attendue qui, après huit éditions à Baalbeck, s’est testée pour la première fois dans la cours du somptueux palais du Chouf. Une soirée de magie délicate, à l’image de Georges Schehadé. La personne chargée de la présentation de la soirée prévient tout de suite l’audience, il ne s’agit ni d’une pièce de théâtre, ni d’une comédie musicale, il n’y aura ni décors ni costume, mais disons plutôt une succession de moments scéniques, visuels. ‘Étincelles, Georges Schehadé, hors texte’ se présente comme une sorte d’hommage visuel à la poésie de l’auteur libanais. Spectacle fondé sur le fragment, la rencontre et le surgissement poétique, ‘Etincelles’ se veut être un exemple de ce qu’André Breton évoquait dans son Manifeste du surréalisme : ’ C’est de ce rapprochement en quelque sorte fortuit de deux termes qu’a jailli une lumière particulière, lumière de l’image, à laquelle nous nous montrons infiniment sensibles. Le principe était simple : rejeter la simple illustration, pour mettre en place un dialogue entre quelques vers (que l’on pouvait lire dans le programme), une musique et les moments scéniques proposés. Toute la révélation de cette beauté un peu lunaire dans sa forme et son évocation, attentive aux détails où surgissent les étincelles de Breton faisait la magie de cette soirée, où la grâce était souvent fragile et fugace, étincelante, voudrait-on dire.” Beiteddine June 2014

Badawi appartment Dbayeh, sayfco project, 2015
A small appartment brought by a young married couple. My mission was to help them in the choice of the furniture in order to fit as well as possible the living spaces and the master bedroom as well as the layout of the bathrooms. The client wanted to add a little touch of design so we worked on a ceilling and lighting concept and worked on a volume in the entrance with a very low budget. The difficulty in this project was to convince the client of the importance of the modification to do.
