woRK HOMES

The “Work Homes” project, developed as my master’s thesis, reimagines housing to balance work and life needs, promoting productivity, creativity, and well-being. The design integrates living and working spaces with adaptable, practical layouts for smaller environments. Key features include vertical circulation around planted courtyards

the ARTISAN SCHOOL

The Artisan School is a key element of the cultural identity of the new Salé city, showcasing the traditional craftsmanship of the Rabat-Salé region. Located within the Bouregrag Valley redevelopment, it replaces the criticized Oulja Artisan Complex, which was considered non-functional and architecturally poor. The new school aims to highlight the region’s craftsmanship in a more representative way. The design fosters creativity and productivity, with the main concept focused on displaying various artisanal activities. Studio windows are designed as niches to expose the workshops to visitors while ensuring private spaces for teaching. The studios feature swing doors for material transport, with storage and maintenance areas included. The layout is based on stepped platforms to create exhibition areas and meeting spaces for students.

RESIDENTIAL BUILDING

This residential building was designed following an urban intervention on the Akkari district, specifically Avenue Houria. Situated on a parcel shaped by a pedestrian street offering a view of the sea, the building acts as the focal point of this perspective. The program is organized into distinct zones: apartments, duplexes, vertical circulation, and a green corridor—maintaining symmetry along the pedestrian axis. The building’s varying heights emphasize its functions, with the tallest volume housing the staircase, followed by the duplexes and then the apartments. This creates multi-level rooftop terraces for leisure and relaxation. To maximize ocean views, a 3-meter setback was integrated into the duplex volume, ensuring panoramic vistas for both private and shared spaces, including a distribution landing that connects to the green corridor.

MEDICAL OFFICE

This project focused on creating functional and comfortable spaces tailored to the specific needs of both clients and practitioners. The design process included developing a layout that optimized workflow and enhanced the user experience. Detailed modification plans were produced, along with architectural details to ensure precision and feasibility. Additionally, high-quality 3D renderings were created to visualize the final design, providing a clear representation of the proposed atmosphere and spatial organization.

scenography

The scenopraphy internship consisted of Designing and developing immersive spaces for children’s activities at major events, focusing on creating environments that combined creativity, functionality, and engagement. This involved tailoring spaces to align with event themes while ensuring they remained interactive and appealing to young audiences. Additionally, I contributed to the development of educational and thematic activities that were specifically designed to captivate, entertain, and educate children in an engaging way. To enhance the visual and immersive quality of these spaces, I produced custom-themed murals and elaborate set designs using tools like Photoshop and Illustrator. These visual elements played a key role in storytelling, transforming the spaces into vibrant, engaging environments that fostered creativity and imagination while offering a memorable experience for participants.
