Description:
|
The project
originated from a will to invest in the multimedia business flourishing
throughout the middle east through the erection of three 1000m2 (would have been
the largest in the middle east) and four 500m2 production studios serviced by a
6 floors administration building containing offices, changing and make-up rooms,
and control and editing rooms. The basic planning and distribution concept
originated from the best use of the slope of the site purchased in kahhaleh
which dictated the layout of the different functions and specifically the
administration building being central and inverted (ground floor and 5
underground floors, lit through an internal courtyard, with two panoramic lifts). The general
architecture was aimed at reflecting prestige and excellence, and the
architectural elements have been largely borrowed from the shape and material of
equipments used in the filming trade, to produce an architectural composition
that reflects grandeur. |
