Royal Park

Location: MASDAR CITY, ABU DHABI

Project Type: Residential Buildings Cluster and Townhouses

The Proposed Cluster is positioned at the center of Masdar City, Abu Dhabi, with direct connectivity to the main roads linking the entire area. The concept was designed with the concept team , it entails a cluster of residential buildings tailored for residential use. It comprises residential apartments alongside exclusive common spaces accessible only to residents, showcasing landscaped pools, relaxation areas, and gymnasiums. My primary emphasis was on the plan design stage, with collaborative involvement in the facade design aspect as well.

The buildings are organized in a grid layout based on the surrounding street network, with orientations and heights that maximize natural light, even for those in the center. This design eliminates dead ends, fosters connectivity through corridors and plazas, and enhances air circulation, contributing to a greener, more energy-efficient community.

02 Maeen5 Villa 126

Location: The Lakes, Dubai

Project Type: Residential Villa Facade Renovation

The Residential Villa is located within one of Emaar’s prestigious developments in Dubai. This renovation project, carried out in collaboration with Kian Design Office, aimed to restore and enhance the façade by drawing inspiration from its surrounding context while preserving its distinct identity and character.

The design objective for the facade was to restore and enhance the façade while preserving the existing Gross Floor Area (GFA) in compliance with Emaar’s renovation guidelines. A key challenge was the building’s mass, which exhibits minimal movement, particularly on the sides where the façade is nearly flush. To address this, we employed lightweight materials, expanded cornice profiles, decorative window detailing, subtle grooves, and architectural ornaments. These interventions successfully introduced depth and visual interest to the façade, creating a more dynamic and sophisticated elevation.
