A team of local and international conservation architects, historians, and academics were commissioned by the Greater As-Salt Municipality to put together a document to nominate the Ottoman city of As-Salt to be inscribed as a UNESCO world heritage sites list, based on its unique architectural language and heritage. I was fortunate to join the team as an architecture consultant and a graphic designer.

The result was a publication by the title “As-Salt Eclectic Architecture (1865-1925): Origins and Evolution of an Architectural Language in the Levant”, accompanied by 7 volumes of annexes of supportive documents. This document served as a an argument to be presented to UNESCO, based on an extensive synthesis of the available documentation and research.
