Place:  Beirut - Hotel Dieu Hospital Date:  Start in 2008, completion in 2009
Assistant in charge: Carlo Massoud

Initiated by a group of independent students in Lebanon, Toufoula project was created to help children with cancer have a better quality time in their hospital rooms. Toufoula invited several architects, designers and fashion designers to develop each one a Dream Room.

The concept of our room is that of an “outdoor space” brought into the sealed world of hospitals. The ceiling is a light box with a representation of a bright blue sky and birds. The flooring is green Linoleum. A swing and a bird house were installed to make it look even more realistic. The graphic lines of the room and bathroom were completely redesigned, and a color code using black, white and green was applied to all details in the room.
All the objects are chosen from the iconic contemporary design world to introduce the children to the aesthetics of design.

This project was possible thanks to:
“Over The Counter”, “Vivre” and especially my assistant Carlo Massoud
