Cells Seed Bank
Architectural Design 7 - 9th Semester
Modeling: Revit Rendering: Lumion Post-Production: Photoshop
Graded: As a person who never heard of seed banks before, this was an incredible experience, which taught me how to design a building you have no prior information about, designing a seed bank was flexible, meaning I could enjoy forming the building with very less to care about, however, since this course targeted systems, the form created a challenge.

Almajdiah Res. Competition
Architectural Design 6 - 8th Semester
Modeling: Revit Rendering: Lumion Post-Production:
Graded: This competition had a goal of generating as much new ideas as possible, the company said that they targeted students since student have not been influenced by the market's standards such the cost for instance, so as an attempt to create something new, I tried to make the corridor as a main aspect of the design, which creates an extra external side for each unit. 2022 Jan - Jun
First, we started off with a basic form.
Then, we cut off two parts of the form. And finally, we separate the two parts to make way through the form to give access and to make the units more convenient.

Riyadh Municipality Tower
Architectural Design 5 - 7th Semester
02
2021 Sep - Dec A
Graded:
Designing a project like this was huge for students at that stage, the site was around 50k square meters, and it was asked of us to design a tower, I had an opinion I shared with the professor that we could use the large site to our advantage and not design a tower, and so I did, and the jurists loved it and I got graded an A for it.
Abo Makhrog Hill Competition
Architectural Design 4 - 6th Semester
Graded:
2021 Jan - May B+
This was the first urban design we experienced, and was the first of three competition we will design, competitions have their downsides, lack of information is one of them, along with flexibility, the site had a historical factor, a hill, who King Abdulaziz the founder used to gather people on, and surprisingly, we were told not to design the hill itself.
03 Grand Mosque Design (Classified)
Concept Stage Participation – Summer Training
2022 Jun- July
As a member of the interns' team, we had made many researches along with a report, and started with the employees to brainstorm ideas for the project, after some time, we ended up with an initial concept, afterwards the employees carried the rest of the project with its details, and since this is a classified projects, I have no information about the current status of the project.
04 High School Design
Architectural Design 3 - 5th Semester
Graded: 2020 Sep - Dec A
Designing this high school had a unique difficulty, prior to that semester, we drew plans using pencils, and it was the first project we used programs for, figuring how programs work and designing at the same time limited the ideas we produced, however, it was a very enjoyable experience.

Working Drawings Project
Working Drawings Course- 8th Semester
Graded: 2022 Jan - Jun A+
Revit Autodesk
This was not only a course for drawing, it also aimed to make our design more real, meaning no long unrealistic spans with huge glass windows with no attention to cost and construction ways, it dramatically changed the way we design, and what to look for while designing.
06 Construction Detailed Drawings
Building Construction Course- 7th Semester
2021 Sep - Dec
Graded: A+ AutoCad
This was not a drawing course, this showed us a different layer of what we design, for instance, instead of making the exterior walls of a building 30 cm without knowing why, now we have a reason for the numbers we put, taking into calculations many aspects, such us, the type of martial used in the facades, what type of insulation, bricks, structural system, and much more.
