Manhal Al Habobi is a high example for the new generation.. we want more people like him.. a great man

An exceptional design! Possibly the best I have seen in terms of project conception and relevance to its historical / contemporary context!

I hope it gets built. Will be an icon for generations!

Wishing all the best for our Iraqi brethren!

He's just started, he's just a beginner... he's not successful enough for him to be big-headed, it takes time.

haha he has many projects in UAE and some gulf countries
anyways lets wait for him

BTW I cant wait for Zaha's new design for the Parliament

Manhal i like him. pls tell now which architect can mix the modern civilization and the ancient civilizations --- no one. actually Iraq has longlong history, the building design should respect Iraq history and give a future. Manhal design exactly caught this point.

Your right the idea is very clever and smart. I hope our rich civilization and culture can be inputed through a lot more of our new building.

arabiccamel · February 23rd, 2012, 07:10 AM

Now i am in Abu Dhabi, i will try to meet him. but i am not architect. what's kind of question i should ask? i mean professinal questions like journalist. thanks if you have any ideas.

arabiccamel · March 5th, 2012, 07:10 AM

In Real life, I met Manhal. He is different from TV-show or internet. He speaks with characteristic passion, I do not feel any arrogant. he is young man like us.

This project is on concept design. the Iraq government will build it. it is a fantastic building. If Iraq Doesnt want it, maybe my country wants it.
