Prototype Urban Housing | KL Malaysia

 Kuala Lumpur is a vibrant city, commercial and residential hub, located at the heart of Malaysia. Typical of any metropolitan city, it has mazes of circulation paths, guiding and transporting people, while also shaping and defining the spaces it relates to. Thus I focused my design on the behavior of the circulation pattern of the city and integrated these patterns into my design. I found that circulation is more than just a route. It is sometimes used as a means of zoning, where major highways and monorail tracks separates new to old developments. It is also layered on top of each other for neater and more efficient space usage, while enclosing spaces beneath it. Therefore, apply these circulation behavior in the design focusing on the key words ZONING, ENCLOSING & LAYERING.

Private Company HQ | Jeddah KSA

The architectural design concept was focused on defining spaces within floating volumes, linked with bridges and visual connections. The building is designed for a machinery company, therefore, the general design of machines and engines were kept in mind, as an inspiration, during the design process. And that is reflected on The facade of the building is deprived of details, however, most of the details are found inside.  

Private Villa | Jeddah KSA

The architectural design is an attempt to merge the modern architectural style with the classical arid building style of Arabia.

Privata Villa 2 | Jeddah KSA

The Villa is of some casual playfulness with dialogue between volumes, light, shadow and the way the water is giving life to the villa. the pool penetrates the building from one side to another, accessing different levels in an open yet close space, accessorized with a large monument.  

Privata Villa 3 | Jeddah KSA

The villa sits on a huge plot of land that is treated as an oasis in the desert. The site is elevated and slops steeply to the rear with commanding views of the surrounding nature. Thus, the building was designed to take advantage of the views from the site, and that was achieved by locating an infinity swimming pool with a large deck overlooking the view. The bed rooms, living and dining are all oriented to the views to utilize the maximum potential of the site i.e. the view.
