The idea of building this cathedral comes out for many years ago before the project was started.
The whole study started as an Academic study and took a year and a half to be finished that was in the department of architectural engineering in Baghdad, and presented by me. The academic project was bigger and more complicated than what is now. The project supervisor was Janan Jubrail Khammo, and considered as a first academic project presented by an architect student all over the Iraqi universities, how designed and presented totally on computers (1992-1993).
