I am 39 years old from state of Kuwait which is on the Arabian Peninsula- la. I decided to do further study after I finished my tenure in the Kuwaiti national guard in 2010. In 2015 I was in draftsman class which is two years after high school that gives us the ability to draw and design shades and buildings. Although, at the beginning it was complicated I start Focusing on the subject and the lectures. In the second year, I achieved the highest ability that could help me to draft my own ideas. Also, I had become more interested in buildings- how they are built and how the buildings keep standing. My final project on the course was a huge success that gave me the idea to follow the best architects in the world such as the British-Iraqi architect , Zaha Hadid British-Iraqi architect and Norman Foster. Both have given the world wonderful gifts through their environmental urban designs. Due to this interest, after I graduated as a draftsman I start working for an architect’s office in Kuwait for four months to see how the work was done in reality. I felt was fascinating and I became sure that this career was the right choice for me. Nowadays, I am on the last year as architecture student on the John Moores university,I understand a lot of ideas and Concepts of buildings and, sometimes when I travel around the cities, modern Building and the older buildings take my breath away and I sometimes feel like we have missed a lot of knowledge from the peoples who created these buildings. In future, master in architecture is my dream to create own ideas in reality.

1-BA year 3 Comprehensive Design Project CDP School Of Art project Due to the design project in Hamilton Sq, Birkenhead. The site location between duncan St and 32 Hamilton street. According to the site proposal in the site there is Accommodation and offices lets in the site with some government buildings , Also there is I section of some coffee shops and food Serves . Furthermore, the school of art on the site will give a opportunity to design a school that is focusing on daylight and spaces with some green roof and courtyard in the site .

Environmental Strategy
The diagram shows the neutral ventilation on the building on Summer, For example in summer when the wind came from SW windows will be open in both Cafe space and the lobby or the art gallery space to cooling the building . The diagram shows the neutral rainwater harvesting strategy , Using rain fall to help us to save water also its give us a chance to use it for building as used for W.C for example . This diagrams shows the strategy used the idea in building to warm the floor in winter also the water used in the building in summer if need hot water for the Cafe space or Kitchen space . Also using solar panel on the roof strategy to used light in night with Similar strategy The solar panels works when the sun get hit by it will transfer the heat to the charge controller then send it to batteries after that the inverter transfer the power to the main breaker panel to the generator to send the light to the bulb.
