PROJECT BACKGROUND
Architecture, intent
and experience.
A layered Lebanese landscape frames a central illuminated cross. The altar and lectern share the backdrop’s material language, establishing a coherent setting for the ceremony. The design contribution encompasses the Lebanese landscape backdrop, altar and lectern. Sacred minimalism meets national identity through carved contours, layered forms and a shared ceremonial axis.
Elio Atallah — my contribution: I developed the concept design for the Lebanese landscape backdrop, altar and lectern, and followed up on site to support the translation of these elements into the ceremonial setting. This design contribution was developed within my work with ICE International Events.
