Nadim Karam is mainly known for his conceptual work, like 'Hilarious Beirut', the 1993 post-war anti-establishment project for the reconstruction of Beirut city centre, and 'The Cloud',[11] a huge public garden resembling a raincloud that stands at 250m above ground. Inspired by the city of Dubai, it proposes a visual and social alternative to the exclusivity of the skyscrapers in Gulf cities. Karam's signature un-built projects include the 'Net Bridge'[12] a pedestrian bridge conceived as a gateway to Beirut city centre from the marina with five lanes that playfully intersect and interweave.
