Louvre Abu Dhabi

The Metamorphosis

This experiental exhibition at the Louvre Abu Dhabi serves as a model for ‘metamorphosis’ pivotal for the museum and future area developments. It addresses the ethical, cultural, and sustainability issues associated with borrowed artefacts and the absence of greenery. The project serves as an inspiration for the country’s creators, advocating the use of their advanced digital technologies in the pursuit of original, contextually appropriate artifacts and natural experiences. The exhibition subtly evokes metamorphosis, blending sensory natural experiences with advanced technology, suggesting the seamless transition from artificial to natural.

The experience Original, Artificial and Natural

Visitors begin their journey at the entrance [1]*, where they are subconsciously drawn to the blend of natural and original. As they enter the space, they find themselves immersed in an environment where the artificial seamlessly mimics the natural. Upon exiting, they are gently transitioned into an environment of absolute natural beauty.

An interactive, parametricly designed installation controlled by an invisible mesh. The mesh dynamically adjusts based on data collected from motion sensors. The data is then transmitted to motors via an Arduino board, enabling the artifact to respond and move in real-time

School of Advanced construction technologies

This thesis project aims to explore how architecture can promote sustainability by balancing the relationship between humans and nature, and humans and technology. The centerpiece of this exploration is a cutting-edge educational building designed to be a beacon of how modern technologies can significantly enhance both individual well-being and environmental health.

Robotic

Fabrication of Rammed earth panels on

The idea is to combine three existing rammed earth construction methods to develop an efficient construction system of rammed earth panels. The system will allow the panels to be produced on-site by robots and assembled together to form structural insulated wall.

Lifting , insulating + joining

The wall will be composed of two rammed earth panels with rigid insulation in the middle, using a method that has already been developed to adapt rammed earth to colder climates.

Internal experimental space and workshops

The programme challenges traditional processes in the construction sector, and allow students to experiment and develop new construction techniques and design tools.

DIGITAL ARCHITECTURE & BIM

Utilising BIM to Facilitate Digital Twins

This digital twin experimentation involved integrating BIM data with Unreal Engine 5 to simulate a built asset across construction, design, and operation phases. The construction sequence was generated in Synchro4D, transferred through Bentley iTwin, and visualised in Unreal Engine with interactive playback controls. A configurator enabled switching between design variants, while operational features included realtime weather simulation via OpenWeatherMap API, live BIM metadata retrieval, and PC availability visualisation using cloud data. A custom UI was developed to control these features and enhance user interaction.

Data Integration

Bubble Diagram Generator Based on Adjacency Matrix

This Bubble Diagram Generator developed in two stages. The first version, built in Grasshopper for Rhino, extracted room sizes, adjacency data, and departmental colors from an Excel file to generate bubble diagrams within a set boundary. Using Kangaroo Physics, the rooms behaved like colliding circles connected by spring-like forces, maintaining spatial relationships without overlap. Galapagos was then used to explore multiple configurations and optimise layouts where all adjacency requirements were met. To scale the tool, I developed a web-based version using Vue and Nuxt, with Matter.js simulating the physics and NSGA-II as the evolutionary algorithm for layout optimisation.

Revit Skill Assessment Tool

This Revit tool functions as an integrated assessment tool, guiding users through tasks and capturing performance data such as accuracy and completion time. The data is sent to an external platform where dashboards visualise skill gaps, task durations, completion rates, and progression over time—enabling efficient performance tracking and targeted training.
