The project envisions an alternate reality, where historical power shifts did not occur, and the Intifada persevered, extending its influence to the occupied regions of 1948. This trajectory results in the comprehensive liberation of Palestine, culminating in the establishment of an independent state encompassing the entirety of Historic Palestine.

Establishing an autonomous relationship among diverse societal layers propels the state towards self-governance, a

controlled empowerment from within, while garnering external support for development and external connections. This process naturally leads to the establishment of a Palestinian Parliament, with its inevitable location in Jerusalem as the capital. Analyzing the spatial transformations and functional typologies of various locales significantly contributes to constructing a reality that emerges from the ethos and principles of the Intifada.

Program: The embrace of these values is evident in various aspects of the project, particularly in the spatial configuration of the main parliament hall, where the highest level of power is granted to the people both visually and physically. This commitment is further demonstrated through the openness of decision-making spaces to the public, giving them control over the process and making them integral participants. The public is allowed to be present on all physical levels of the parliament building, asserting control and transparency in the legislative process.

Living in the City Center. info: Design V course, Fall 2019, Individual work.

Rethinking the mixed-use in the 21st century: The objective is to conceptualize a versatile mixed-use complex that seamlessly integrates public, commercial, and residential functionalities, complemented by dedicated areas for productive activities like urban farming, small-scale industrial production, and urban craftsmanship. Central to the project's foundation is the imperative to comprehend how new mixed-use and public facilities seamlessly integrate into the urban, economic, and cultural tapestry of the city center, alongside its existing infrastructural framework.

Hybridity and mixed-use: Refining robust designs involves a meticulous examination and critical exploration of diverse urban approaches and architectural strategies for mixed-use and public programs. This process aims to evaluate their potential impact on our local urban environment and socio-economic context.

Architecture as Material Culture Info: Advanced Design, Fall 2020, Partnership with Islam Jabareen.

The project's objective is to create a research and student center on the campus of Birzeit University, seamlessly integrating research, learning, and entertainment. It seeks to explore the narratives, systems, and values inherent in building materials and their cultural significance.

In an effort to represent traditional building methods rooted in Palestinian traditions, the project utilizes stone both as a construction material and a structural element.

The project program was conceived as a linear component concealed beneath the stripes formed by small individual stone units. The program unfolds along three organic axes: the main circulation axis and two additional axes that accommodate the remaining activities.

The layout of retail interior spaces plays a crucial role in shaping clients' movement and behavior.

Thoughtfully designed branded spaces not only elevate the quality of time customers spend in retail environments but also cater to their desire to invest in both products and experiences.

This approach serves as a guiding filter for design thinking, influencing the entire process from the initial concept to implementation.
