Marine Musemum 2019 This ARC 307 studio project (Junior year) is a musume that showcases the marine culture of Saudi Arabia’s eastern province. The Idea of the design was to take the shape of a boat and combine it with a wave like form. the wave is carshing into the boat representing the fade of one of the main professions in the eastern province of saudi arabia. The wave like form is placed on the sea to represent the origin of the wave.

This photo showcases the first part of the Marine life exhibiition which displays the types of boats that were used by sailors and fishermen back in the day. The exhibittion also features a workshop corner to engage visitors in the process of boats making and manufacturing.

Dhelal Housing 2019 This project was designed in ARC 306 studio (Junior year). The aim was to create several micro-climatic environments within an urban scale and the single house unit. This was approached with design based solutions to have a passive house. The design was also adhered to the inward-looking architectural principle for establishing a perfect micro-climate and privacy.

The dsign of the interior spaces of a house unit was done with the intention of establishing a solid connection with the inner-courtyard, and also with the neighboring units without comprimising the privacey of the household.

O2 Mall 2019 This project was designed in ARC 307 studio ( Junior year). The aim was to create a sustainable mall by designing micro-climatic environment within the inner-courtyard. A crucial factor here is the shade and shadow and the pleasent inward views and experience.

Geometry Investigation 2018 This project was part of the Digital Communication course (Sophomore year) The idea of this project was to use kitchen tools as elements to create geometrical shapes when casting light on them, the shadows generated from the tools were taken further on and designed as 3d objects intersect with eachother to create the tower. Same geometry were then used for the skin.

Public Library 2018 This project was part of ARC 204 studio (Sophomore year). The idea was to design a public library in Al-Dammam. The design was based on several manipulations with cubic forms. twisting and intersecting the forms together created intresting experiences within the outer look, and the indoor spaces.

Booth Design 2020 This small project was part of the Community Design Exploration course (Senior year). Students were asked to fish for clients that are in need for design services. This booth was designed for a client that was starting a family bussiness in Jeddah. The goals of the design were simplicity, affordability and easy transportation.

Family House 2019 This project is in progress of construction. The design inherits the inward-looking architectural principal to establish privacy and micro-climatic environment. The house is devided upon two sectors, one sector is a villa for the property owner, and the other sector holds two rental apartments.

SUKOON SPA 2019 This project was completed in term 202, the second term of the senior year. The concept of the design of this natural spa is to reflect the project’s natural site’s features and affordances through the efficient use of sceneries and the utilization of the site’s contour to accommodate a soothing environment that disconnects from the typical norm.

The site is located in the Hijaz area West of Saudi Arabia. It lies within Albaha region and is located north west of Albaha city. The site is a 7 minutes’ drive away from Al Baha city’s central district. The site is located on hilly terrain that overlooks various interesting tourism locations, such as Gadr waterfall, Wadi Amer Dam,famous Greek column, Kherah Forest. Since the site is on a hill, it’s much easier and effortless to access it by cars, but pedestrian paths can be designed to have a small hiking experience to the site. Roads highlighted in red are the main roads which comes from the city. Secondary level roads highlighted in green are going to the surrounding residential districts. The third level roads which are highlighted in blue are the ones that is adjacent to the site and will be used to get to it.

Dr.Rakan’s Villa 2022 This project was done in urban phenomena architecture office. The goal was design a unique and distinct house following the client’s desire and imagination, we tackled the design and concept based on the topography of the site. so the main idea was to use the slope and deepth of the land to creat a hovering longitudenal mass. The design clearly speaks brutal arcitecture, but the challenge was to coexist brutality and domestic look, and we have reached that type of balance. Working with urbanphenomena

Dr.Hunaidah’s Villa 2021 This project was done in urban phenomena architecture office. The goal was design a summer house forr the client. The design simply follows a modern style of architecture.

Concept Development Learning from the landscape In hot and arid regions such as Saudi Arabia, it is natural that the design process is heavily hinged on the location the building is located. As a result,buildings naturally respond to the surroundings. Our overarching concept for the AlUla town house in Jdaidah is to create a building that grows out of its unique landscape. Our approach envisions the house as simple geometric forms that respond to the local climate with minimum openings and, in some cases, double-skin facades that minimize heat entering through the walls, in addition to shading elements to allow natural light in but avoid heat gain. The Structure will deploy thick walls to protect inner courtyards from the harsh desert climate, thus creating a narrative interweaving between the courtyard and surrounding spaces, allowing a spatial progression out through the house. Ideally, we plan to experiment with rammed earth construction, which will have minimum impact on its fragile environment. Our goal is to seamlessly blend into the surrounding arid landscape with the subtle urban landscape featuring elegant, clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic. The focal part of the design would be the edge between the building mass and the landscape. This is the moment in which architecture and landscape come together, coinciding with an intensication of human senses, both aesthetic and physical.

Ammareyyah Office Building 2021 This project was done in urban phenomena architecture office. The goal was to an office building in Al-Ammareyyah district in Jeddah Al-Balad. Thus, the design of the building falls under the regulations and conditions of Al-Balad’s architetural identity.
