Beirut 001 is the first readily available digital 3D model of
Beirut. Mapping buildings, roads, bridges, and tunnels,
and constructed with the humble means available to the
architect and his team over the span of three years, it is
offered to the public as a preliminary tool to collectively
re-imagine our city. Beirut 001, has been made public as
open source for free download in the midst of Lebanon’s
October Revolution on January 01, 2020. Being the only
available 3d model of Beirut when the Port Explosion on
August 4th , 2020 took place, it has been used by first
responders, students and professionals alike, including
ARUP, Forensic Architecture and Rice University’s
Spatial Lab.
