Patching Beirut’s walls with Lego bricks

I just came across this cool project “Dispatch Beirut” aiming to patch the old walls around the city using Lego bricks which we all grew up on.

As mentioned on the website, the idea has originally been started a few years ago by a German artist who started patching old walls with Lego bricks during a contemporary art festival in Italy, and the project then started to spread worldwide.

It looks pretty cool to me, but I wonder if curious people will leave these patches intact!

      I just noticed @GinoRaidy mentioned the same thing on Facebook, but there are no details on how/where can people actually donate their bricks…
