« En tant qu’Architecte, poursuivant la formation HMONP a L’ENSA Versailles | Ile de France et Membre à l’ordre des ingénieurs et des architectes au Liban #58417.
Mes études mon permis de comprendre à quel point le monde nécessite d’être métamorphosé pour survivre à l’image de la biologie et du corps humains et de s’adapter à tout changement (ex le covid-19).
L’Architecture jouera le principal élément de changement - de spatialité, de cadre affectant, les modes de vie en changement permanent vu les différents événements actuels. L’Architecture, à travers ces lignes qui s’ouvre vers le monde, le public d’une part et ferme d’autre part vers le privé. De ce fait, le pouvoir d’Architecture, entre une convergence et une divergence, entre le tout et le rien, le plein et le vide, la transparence et l’opacité, entre une construction et une reconstruction. Ainsi l’Architecture procure un changement à travers des solutions créatives, et je vise faire partie de ce changement.
D’ailleurs, nous ne pourrons pas changer le monde entier à travers l’Architecture mais impérativement le monde ne peut pas être changer sans l’Architecture. »
