Hello, I’m MUHAMMAD LUTHFI
I had obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Architecture (Hons.) from UiTM Seri Iskandar, Perak, Malaysia in 2023, as a Second Class Upper Graduate.
Over the past two years, I have dedicated myself to the field of architecture, gaining valuable experiences through internships and professional practices in various type of projects. My design approach revolves around harmonizing cultural heritage with modern aesthetics, creating functional, sustainable, and visually compelling design.
With a strong passion for architecture shaped by academic studies, hands-on experiences, and a commitment to continuous learning and professional growth, I believe this combination aligns perfectly with my aspirations in the field.
I am excited and look forward on the journey to broaden my knowledge, develop my skills, and make meaningful contributions in taking the next step toward achieving my dream of becoming an inspiring architect.

DESCRIPTION
Dedicating myself towards architecture with two years of experience in residential, commercial, and housing projects. I focus on blending cultural heritage with modern design to create functional and appealing spaces.
Working in Malaysia has deepened my understanding of tropical architecture and urban development. I integrate traditional elements with contemporary aesthetics while ensuring sustainability and efficiency.
Passionate about shaping Malaysia’s architectural identity, I strive to create spaces that balance tradition, modernity, and user needs.
Here are some insights from my professional experience.

PERSONAL WORKS Miscellaneous
Hand Sketch Drawings
Photography
DESCRIPTION
I’ve always been passionate about exploring architecture through art and imagery. My sketches and photography highlighted architectural forms, spaces, and details while capturing moments that showcase the natural state of people and the built environment.
Though I continue to refine my skills, I see each sketch and photograph as a learning opportunity to enhance my understanding of architectural composition and storytelling.
Here is a selection of my work.
right — The left side of the image showcases the actual dried leaf while the right side features a detailed pencil sketch of the same leaf, capturing its shape and vein structure with precision to giving the impression of transformation from reality to illustration. The image is to highlights artistic skill and attention to detail in nature-inspired sketching.
