TOUKAN SOAP FACTORY OFFICE & CO-WORKING SPACE

JAN - APR 2023

Independent | 1600 Sq.Ft. | Adaptive Re-Use of Heritage Building Project | Revit, Enscape

Location: Nablus, Palestine

"Saber" - Patience & Resilience

The concept of Patience and Resilience is inspired by the Palestinian people, history, and culture, and this office design draws from the powerful symbolism of the Opuntia cactus, "saber".

The Opuntia cactus, native to Palestine, symbolizes resistance, strength, and perseverance, reflecting the resilience of the Palestinian people. The Arabic term for cactus, "saber," means patience, underscoring this connection. This symbolism extends to the Toukan Soap Factory, known for its handmade Nablus soap, which represents Palestine's heritage The soap-making process takes 8 days for the liquid solution and up to a year for drying, showcasing the patience of the workers. As the oldest remaining soap factory, Toukan embodies resilience by preserving traditional production methods and sustaining the Nablus soap industry.

RETAIL BOUTIQUE - LOUIS VUITTON

MAR - APR 2022

Independent | 1600 Sq.Ft. | Revit, Enscape

Location: Distillery District, Toronto, ON

RELIANCE; dependence or trust in someone or something

The brand Louis Vuitton began in 1837 and was most known for its trunks used as baggage by travelers. The brand eventually would design an unpickable lock, which transformed “travel trunks into real treasure chests”. Clients have relied and trusted the Louis Vuitton brand and their trunks, as they carry and secure their valuables and treasures on their travels. Louis Vuitton esteems their clients, treating them like treasured nobility that should be protected and valued The concept of reliance will be incorporated architecturally by emphasizing a feeling of security and trust between Louis Vuitton brand and their loyal clients. As clients walk into the retail space, I want them to feel as if they are entering a different, luxurious world, like entering a chest full of treasure.

GLOBAL UNITY

The primary concept for Humber’s International Development Institute workspace is “Global Unity”

The symbol of the Earth / Globe connects to the keyword “Global Unity” as we are all connected to and united by our planet. The design goal is to create connectivity and unity amongst students and faculty which will improve well-being and efficiency in the workspace.

Unity will be incorporated into the design through design strategies of flow and connectivity between spaces, repetition and harmony of architectural design elements (organic shapes, materiality), as well as a variety of different workspaces that encourage collaboration, teamwork, and unity

HUMBER DENTAL CLINIC

NOV - DEC 2021

Independent | 3000 Sq Ft | AutoCAD, Hand Renders, Working Drawings

Location: Humber College, Etobicoke, ON

CRYSTAL CLEAN

The conceptual approach for the dental clinic is Crystal Clean. A dental clinic should feel welcoming, and have a feeling of trust among clients as they are being treated in a clean environment, and to trust that their dental treatment will also be clean and hygienic. I want to incorporate the concept of crystals, which are known to have cleansing and healing properties, as well as calming properties to help patients with anxiety or nervousness of being at the dentist. I have incorporated this concept into my design by using crystal finishes and geometric architectural forms. I will also be using materials and a colour palette that resemble the crystals Sodalite, Amethyst, and Clear Quartz, each of which have strong cleansing, calming, and healing properties

IMMERSED IN HARMONY
