INSIDE/OUTSIDE SPACE

The design assignment is a 500 sqm contemporary guest house, located in Byblos on a land overlooking the sea in a quiet surrounding neighbourhood, with the Citadel, the medieval wall and the old Phoenician port located nearby. The intervention is expected to contribute in reviving the area and in bringing in more tourists; at the project’s core is an understanding of space as dynamic and oscillating between private and public social space. While the boundaries are partly permeable and flexible, there is a shift between the interior and the exterior, provoking a reflection on the surrounding nature, the society and the built environment.
