TABLE OF CONTENTS

AIA MIDDLE EAST DESIGN AWARDS 2018 HONORABLE MENTION DESIGN AWARD

“Neonomads” desert shelter and research station has received an Honorable Mention Design Award by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Middle East Chapter. The Neonomads project was acclaimed by the AIA Middle East Chapter for its genuine program flexibility and function as an expanding, unconditioned shelter, which can serve as a self-powered, demountable research station inextreme desert conditions. Neonomads is a collaborative studio project under the instruction of Professor Patrick Rhodes.

Developping a design for the National Maritime Museum on the Dubai Creek, is formally inspired by the inverted hull of a dhow, a significant cultural element in the UAE. The cantilevers of the two bars, provide a shaded outdoor gallery and cafeteria seating overlooking views onto the creek. The paneling system on the facades was manipulated to include transparent glass, and perforations, to change the quality of the interior spaces respectively, affecting the type of light and experience inside the galleries. Collaborative work with my group mate, Nada Mahmoud.

HOUSE OF MUSIC

During my site analysis of San Francisco, I was very intrigued by its undulating topography of hills and valleys and as a result, the topography of the site is manipulated, to create intimate submerged spaces, surrounded by mini-grassy-hills. As you approach the building from the street side, you are encountered by several mini-hills, and in between two of these you are lifted up into the building. On the interior, a rhythmic quality is achieved by exposing the wooden beam structure, creating a linear system that follows the of the outdoor wave.

A hybrid object set in a forest landscape, is composed of a perforated skin, a helix and pipes of varying diameters. The pipes grow out of the object and follow the ground plane of the forest, integrating the hybrid object with its context. The hybrid object was modeled in grasshopper, culebra and rhino, and collaged in the forest landscape using Photoshop.

Contrasting the materially-heavy nature of the project, a light tectonic space connects the two bars of the L-shaped house. This outdoor louver-covered space, overlooks the courtyard as well as the main street.

One branch of the (L-shape) includes the public portion of the house that’s comprised of a double-height workspace and gallery. The other branch is relatively private and is composed of two separate floors where the living, dining and kitchen are on the ground floor, and the sleeping space with a private bathroom are upstairs.

The main concept driving this project is framing the spectacular views on the Socotran Island, especially that of the sea view, using a system of parallel planes. This concept addressees the client’s interest in a retreat that allows her to have a direct relationship with the site elements by means of views. To emphasize on this relationship, the outdoor and indoor reflection spaces provide contained and distant views to the site elements. The main reflection space in the retreat, the courtyard, is surrounded by a set of parallel planes framing a frontal distant view to the sea.

The American University of Sharjah requires a new arts building, to include: a theater, a cafe, laboratories, offices, conference rooms and study spaces. Looking at the interior, there is one main volume that houses all the spaces, in addition to the primary,interior staircase that follows the slight curvature of the front facade. For the envelope, it’s composed of colored transparent glass panels with opaque panels to conceal the floor slabs. The frontal facade wall, with several punctures for views onto the public plaza, turns downwards providing the flooring for the ground level then transforms into a staircase onto the western facade, hence merging the boudaries between a vertical wall, a horizontal flooring and a slanted stair-case surface.

The second primary wall turns upwards forming the roofing for the building with several skylights directly above the interior bamboo gardens, separating the office spaces.
