First, it is a good job ziad. but the point is that you can not label this as “ICON OF BEIRUT”…because Beirut is not Dubai and Abudhabi and others new countries…it’s a great city that passes through several stages and has undergone several changes, and as it is a result of the stratification of civilizations, so in all that we do, we can’t see the oriental city which is neither Arab nor Western..
so i think its a very good job but u don’t have the right to give the title “ICON OF BEIRUT”…
but finally I wish you Ziad the best of luck!!

EVE you’re a exceptional person…. reading y0ur last comment made me smile .. well .. i think we all know.. with the birth of the artist came the birth of the critic.. every work in history was and still is criticized by people… I do encourage Ziad as i encourage all architects and architecture students to be men of vision for the prospect of our nation is dependent on people like Ziad, you, me and hundreds of other talented people.

Looking forward to see your work EVE !

As the Philippine National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal ý Mercado once said, “Ang kabataan ang kinabukasan ng Bayan.” (The youth is the future of the Nation.) And as another aspiring architect, I can attest that Mr. Ziad will be a bright future for Lebanese Architecture. Make a name and make your country proud! Show everyone how competitve you are and may you have an outstanding career. Rock on! \m/
