TASK:
THE TASK WAS TO LOOK FOR LEFTOVERS AND CREATE A COMPOSITION THAT REFLECTS A KEYWORD.
DISTINCTIVENESS
MY IDEA WAS TO ILLUSTRATE THE WORLD WE ALL LIVE IN, WHERE EVERYONE IMITATES ONE ANOTHER, WITHOUT REALIZING THAT WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT MAKES US BEAUTIFUL.

TASK:
WE WERE ASKED TO DESIGN ONE OR TWO GEOMETRIC SOLIDS. THE FORMS SHOULD DIFFER IN SIZE AND CHARACTER. DIVIDE THE SOLID INTO AT LEAST THREE FRAGMENTS. ESTABLISH DOMINANT, SUBDOMINANT, AND SUBORDINATE RELATIONSHIPS. MAKE A UNIFIED VISUAL STATEMENT.

VI. EXTRUSION
TASK: WE WERE ASKED TO PRACTICE COLLAGE AND THEN TRY TO EXTRUDE IT INTO A 3D MODEL.
CONCEPT: MY FINAL RESULT IN COLLAGE WAS MAINLY COMPOSED OF SEVERAL CUBOIDS RELAXED ON EACH OTHER IN THREE DIFFERENT AXES.
EXTRUSION-REDO
TASK: WE WERE ASKED TO REDO THE ASSIGNMENT AFTER RECEIVING A FEEDBACK
CONCEPT: MY FINAL RESULT IN COLLAGE WAS MAINLY COMPOSED OF SEVERAL CUBOIDS RELAXED ON EACH OTHER IN THREE DIFFERENT AXES.
REFLECTION: I WAS ASKED TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO DETAILS IN MY COMPOSITION, AND MAKE SURE TO TRANSMIT THE CORRECT DIMENSIONS AND SIZES.
EXTRA-SHOTS FOR MORE DETAILING:
MATERIAL USED:
-FOAM BOARDS
-CARTON
-COLORED PAPERS
-SPRAY COLORS
VII. WIRES
TASK: WE WERE ASKED TO LISTEN TO 3 ARABIC SONGS BY EGYPTIAN ARTISTS AND CREATE 3 DIFFERENT MODELS USING WIRES
AGHLA MEN EL YAQOUT
-AHMED MEKKY
KEYWORD: FATHERHOOD
ETNASET
-MUSLIM
KEYWORD: OVERTHINKING
ENTA TE2DAR
-BANQUE MISR
KEYWORD: NEVER GIVE UP
BONUS- WIRES
TASK: MAKE A 15-30 SECOND VIDEO OF THE WIRE COMPOSITION WITH THE MUSIC TRACK YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO FOLLOW ITS RHYTHM.
IX. MIDTERM-PROJECT
Task:
We were asked to design an outdoor play item inspired by nature as our midterm project. It encompasses the 3-dimensional basic concepts and rules practiced earlier in the semester.
Concept:
My model represented three different flower sizes in which kids aged from 810 years old can start discovering how to hike but in a more facilitated way as if they are hiking the petals of the flower and going from one to another.
Materials:
-Cardboards
-Wood sticks
-Foam boards
-Colored papers
-Plasticine
MORE SHOTS:
X. PLANAR
TASK: CREATE A SPORTS, OR ARTISTIC ACTIVITY PARK USING PLANS
CONCEPT: MY IDEA WAS TO CREATE AN INDOOR PARKOUR ARENA USING PLAN SHAPES OF DIFFERENT HEIGHTS, PROPORTIONS, AND AXIS. I CHOSE "FINISH YOUR ENERGY" AS MY TITLE, I DESIGNED A LOGO FOR MY ARENA AND USED IT AS A MARKETING STRATEGY BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY I ALSO MADE A PLANAR WITH THE SAME LOGO TO GIVE MORE IDENTITY TO MY ARENA, AND FINALLY, I CHOSE THE COLOR GREEN AS MY COLOR PALETTE BECAUSE IT GIVES ENTHUSIASM AND SYMBOLIZES THE CHARGING OF A BATTERY WHEN IT'S 100%.
FINISH YOUR ENERGY INSPIRATION
ARCHITECTURALIZING THE FACE OF THE PLATEAU
IS THE KEYWORDS ADOPTED BY THE DESIGNERS
AFTER OUR VISIT TO THE MUSEUM AND THE RESEARCH DONE FOR THE PROJECT, OUR RESPONSES ARE:
THE GEM IS LOCATED BETWEEN CAIRO AND THE PYRAMIDS, BLENDING MODERNITY AND ANTIQUITY.
THE DESIGN FEATURES A FINE STONE STRUCTURE WITH FRACTAL GEOMETRY, CREATING A NEW EDGE ON THE PLATEAU.
MUSEUM'S WALL ENHANCES THE PLATEAU'S SURFACE WITH STRUCTURAL AND SPATIAL FOLDS
OCCUPIES A VOID ALIGNED WITH VISUAL AXES TO THE PYRAMIDS, SERVING AS A TRANSITION POINT.
TRACES A NEW PROFILE WITHOUT COMPETING WITH THE PYRAMIDS, INTEGRATING WITH A MODERN VISION.
THE INTERSECTION OF VIEWS OF THE PYRAMIDS AND CAIRO PROVIDES A NEW HORIZON.
LIGHT CARVES SPACES, FROM OPEN-AIR PARKS TO ARTIFACT ENVIRONMENTS.
THE SITE IS DIVIDED INTO THREE PURPOSEFUL BANDS; DIGITAL STREAMS SERVE AS LIGHT VOIDS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE.
USING THIS INSPIRATION FROM THE SUBMITTED WINNING PROJECT WE CREATED OUR 3D PUZZLE MODEL AND WE NAMED IT "PHARAHO'S ASSEMBLING"
PERSPECTIVE VIEW OUR DESIGNED 3D PUZZLE BOX

THE VISIT TO THE GEM:
SUCCESS IS NOT A DESTINATION, BUT A JOURNEY. ENJOY THE PROCESS, CELEBRATE THE MILESTONES

COURSE REFLECTION
CERTAINLY, THIS COURSE WAS THE MOST OUTSTANDING ONE THIS SEMESTER. AT FIRST, I DOUBTED MY CAPABILITY TO PERFORM WELL IN THIS COURSE BUT THANKS TO MY CLASSMATES, MY TEACHER ASSISTANTS, AND MAINLY PROFESSOR HEBA, YOU ALL PUSHED ME TO BE ON THE RIGHT TRACK AND ALSO HELPED ME ACHIEVE MY HIGHEST POTENTIAL. YOUR FEEDBACK HELPED ME PROGRESS BUT YOUR ENCOURAGEMENT SERVED AS A MOTIVATOR THAT EVERY TIME HELPED ME TO GO FURTHER WITH MY CREATIVITY AND PERFORM BETTER WORK. THAT IS WHY, I WOULD LIKE TO SEVERELY THANK ARCHITECT HEBA SAFEY ELDEEN, AND ARCHITECT SALMA EL BANNA FOR THEIR NEVER-ENDING EFFORTS WITH ME.
THANK YOU
