Beit HUA is a public urban project that aims to show that worshiping the one loving God to elevate the human self to its perfection and give up the inferiority of evil is the common denominator of all of us. The pursuit of salvation ourselves and its union with our Creator is a common goal.
Beit is a perfect cube facing the four orientations of the earth, with a semi-circular space of natural rock in the middle. The circle with no direction symbolizes the everlasting, eternal Creator, and its fractured rock walls represent our relation-ship with God. The inner void is completely isolated from the outside and only open to the sky, where we do not realize the breadth of space and the limit of the Creator. The wall is splitted in two directions: The first split faces the east-ward direction, exactly where the sun of Christ lit up on the altars of the churches, and the second towards the Qiblah, where Muhammad prostrated to his Creator. Beit entrance is a narrow door on the axis that runs between the east and the Qibla directions.
Biet blends in with its natural and archaeological surroundings in terms of architectural mass and materials used; the exterior facades are aged tumbled travertine with bronze Arabic and Syriac calligraphy.
