Come and join this team of public space advocates on a walk around the city, exploring five different installations in five different locations along the Corniche. From Ain el Mraiss\u00e9h to the old light house<\/p>\n
The studio proposes to explore ways by which an enthusiastic point of view over the becoming of Beirut can produce a direct engagement with the urban fabric and its uses, envisioning how the meeting of temporary architecture and public life can alter the seemingly undefeatable privatization of the city. <\/p>\n
Stemming from the assumption that Beirut can still be a city where all can live and share, where all can inhabit and use, the work of the Welcoming City Design Studio taught at the FEA American University of Beirut, by Carole L\u00e9vesque, Rana Haddad and Sandra Richani, demonstrates how finding clever negotiations between current urban growth and possible public spaces opens opportunities to engage the city as a found fabric with which to envision other and possible ways of creating a Public Beirut. <\/p>\n
The work reflects upon how the city can be a place of investigation. The full scale sites of interventions will address architectural and urban problematic under new light as the first seeds of sustaining, transformative public appropriation.<\/p>\n
