Rosy Roots - The Colors of Heritage

Abstract

The Rose House of Ras Beirut is a very old residential mansion built in the heart of the city near the old lighthouse facing the sea. It is a very exceptional and symbolic building because of its architecture and contrasting pink exterior. The Rose House is currently in really bad shape and needs to be preserved. By using physical design interventions as a mean of communication, and taking the particular case of the Rose House, this fun and explorative campaign aims to bring attention to heritage buildings and spread knowledge about the meanings of heritage which expand beyond just the physical.
