World War Two Museum & Park

Client: Mercy Corps & Khiam Municipality
Location: Khiam, South Lebanon
Photo Tile: Scarecrow

I designed this riveted metal structure with architect Samar Rizkallah to scare away Israeli planes, and it was built in 2004 as part of the renovation and rehabilitation of the abandoned WWII English bunker/hospital into a WWII museum of war. It was totally ravaged and destroyed during the 2006 Israeli invasion, however, and to this day, the scarecrow still stands tall and proud.
