ISLAMIC CULTURE CENTER 2008 I Samaraa, IRAQ I Renovation and architectural design I 15287 m2 Higher Technological Institute University in 10th of Ramadan City I B.Sc. Thesis I Professor : Hanaa Shukry
Al-Askari Shrine is a Shī‘ah Muslim holy site in the Iraqi city of Sāmarrā 125 km from Baghdad, It is one of the most important Shī‘ah Shrines in the world, built in 944. Adjacent to the shrine is a mosque, which is called Al-Askari Mosque. The dome of the Shrine was destroyed in a bombing by extremists in February 2006 and its two remaining minarets were destroyed in another bombing in June 2007, causing widespread anger amongst Shī‘ah Muslims. The remaining clock tower was also destroyed in July 2007. The project is a radical renovation programme of the existing structure without changing the ruined exteriors cereating a landmark to keep in the memory of the locals the disadvantages of religious conflicts and internal wars.

The bombs leads to the well-known Sunni-Shiaa conflict, So the concept from this project is to solve this conflict via architecture through smart use of the main building of the shrine without renovation of its ruins.

I tried to take in consideration the Architectural, Political, historical, traditional, environmental and technical aspects to solve the mentioned Sunna-Shia conflict through 3 ways “Learning Science, religion and peaceful dialogue” achevied by design the extension of 3 buildings “Library, mosque, and conference hall” which all extracted from the main Hall “Museum” to converg gence of different religious views. -8-

The idea behind changing the function of a sacred place like a mosque to be a museum might be wierd between the belivers but they still can pray in the specified spaces, in the other side it changed to be a iconic museum to push the memory of the conflict through the younger generation through showing the history of the area before and after the U.S invation to Iraq showing them how it was much peacful before.

The extension was connected through a court open to air to help the cold air ventilate to all spaces, but also each mass has its own entrance to give the possibility to the users to use each space alone or all together

GREEN RAMBLA 2015I Milano, ITALY I Urban and Architectural design I 137945 m2 Politecnico di Milano university I Architecture and Urban Design studio I Professor : Luis Basabe Montalvo
Our plot area, belonging to the Rambla’s masterplan, consists on two different buildings with two different typologies. The first one, that is facing the rambla, represents a proposal for different types of housing in the same building, including a ground commercial floor facing the rambla at south. It has also an idea of community inside with several typologies, offering duplex traditional housing, temporary housing (for vacations for example) or flexible/adaptable houses for families that are growing and may need more space. The fourth building, the student’s residence. This one is facing north with one of the main transversal streets and it has a simple/traditional typologie, with two stair cases and one corridor in the middle with some variations from one floor to another contains alot of colours in the external facade and in the interiors which gives an identity to each rooms helping the students life to be more joyful and happy.

CONCRETE FOREST REFINEMENT 2016 I Milano, ITALY I Renovation and Architectural design I 4550 m2 Politecnico di Milano university I Design studio 01 I Professor : Mark Pimlott
Torre Velasca one of the famous 50’s towers in Milan but unfourtnatly you will find your self stuck between tall buildings in small piazza and feel strangled also you could not find a place to have a seat around it to take rest and enjoying looking to this monumental building. The idea to find a visual and physical connection between Torre Velasca and the entrance of Missori station which each of them was built in different time with diffrent design characteristics. So I decided to have the idea of the ancient agora by enlarge station entrance, adding more stairs and to remove obstacles between the the tower view barriars by clearing the previous entrances and design a glass ceiling partially of Mezanine roof so it helps to get natural light inside the Mezanine floor. To Focus more of the idea of Torre Velasca as a monumental building the design is to have a small piazza lower than tower entrance level so user can find wide stairs in front of it to take a rest and to have the feeling of the monumentality of Torre Velasca. To understand more the metro station circulation please check this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHC0Igdk9IY

Light comfort and natural light in all the space
Visual comfort and visual connection in all of the space
Design principles The design depends on two main features 1st one is to increase the oprtuonity of natural light inside Mezanine level and the other is to increase the view of torre velasca before and after the entrance of the station. Piazza Velasca masterplan Landscape design of benches and green areas took the same elements and colors to save the visual identity of 50’s era of Torre Velasca that it helps the user easily feel the added area was from the original design of BBPR. The position of both station entrances reflecting a perfect view for torre velasca and give a good oprtiunity to spread the natural lighting inside the station.

Exterior-interior shifting The inner space of the station and the exterior space of the piazza are two completely different entities co existing with each both, having a inter relation collaboration of sorts. In this project, you would come across phases like establishment of relationship between the interior of the space and the exterior. This is established by creating a dialogue between the exterior and the interior of the space. For example, if we look at The Glass panels in Mezzanine roof , we would realize that we are looking at a prime example of such a statement. Made completely out of the same shape of the exposed structure of torre velasca . When you are standing within the building, you would not feel alienated with the outer area.

Green Pause 2016 I Milano, ITALY I Architectural Design Politecnico di MilanoI Atmosphere 2016 “Feeding Students’ Life @ POLIMI” I Professor : Pierluigi Salvadeo
The Città Studi university campus is a strategic place in the city of Milan, not only because of its central location well served by public transportation systems but above all because it is home to two of Italy’s primary universities (Università degli Studi and Politecnico di Milano). Living every day on the Città Studi Campus means participating in common activities such as attending classes, studying in the library, working as a team, eating, drinking, using the bathroom, resting when necessary and possible, and so on. But the liveability of the Città Studi Campus is something more complicated than the sum of these individual actions. The corridor we chosed is an important connection axis between the north and south wings of university building. This space is structered by arches that enclosuer an aesthetic garden. Even though it is busy of walking people, there is no actual interaction between the users and this spectacular scenery. Our proposal emphazises the existing potintial of the site, by optimizing the space and its elegant arched shape. Green pause achieves to recreate a daily gathering place thanks to a soft shaped seating area that preserves the harmony of the classical arches shaped corridor. The new seats not only would allow students and staff to read, have a coffee, Sleep or chat, but also, acting as a frames, they would enhance this garden as a picturesque scenery.

Site analysis: At the south end of the corridor there is an indoor space, whereas the corridor itself is partly outdoor. Even though the indoor space containsavendingandacoffeemachine,thereforeapotentialofsocialinteractions,itistenebrousandonlyfurbishedwithwoodenchairs. On the contrary the corridor is a bright space opened to an aesthetic garden, but it is not furbished at all. Our idea aims to link both spaces together. It exploits the garden scenery to create a proper public space related to the vending and coffee machine space.

No damages to exiting building Human power, no machines While designing an aesthetic and smooth seating shape, we constantly kept in mind the need to reduce installation process time and effort. The seating shape is made by a thin shell with a hollowed body: this makes it easy to be carried on by hands with no need of any machine. In order to preserve the existing columns and flooring, a 10 mm rubber piece is placed between them and the surface of the seating. This piece would also allow the expansion and contraction of the two different materials.

HAMAM YALBOUGHA 2011 I Aleppo, SyriaI Renovation and Interior design I Art Vision Studio I Client: Architect Ramy el Dahaan
(“Hammam”) is a Mamluk-era public bath in Aleppo, Syria. The hammam was built in 1491 by the Emir of Aleppo Saif ad-Din Yalbugha al-Naseri. It is located next to the entrance of the Citadel of Aleppo, on the banks of the Quweiq river. The Mamluk structure is based on a typical floor plan with three sections, the frigidarium, tepidarium and caldarium. Each of these three parts has a large central domed area surrounded by four iwans. The monumental street façade is symmetrically built, with an entrance portal in the middle. The walls display ablaq decoration with alternating courses of yellow and black stone. The domed and vaulted spaces are lit by saucer-shaped glass plugs.

MODERN COASTAL INTERIOR 2012 I Mumbai, INDIA I Interior design I 1420 m2 Freelance work I Private Client
In that villa the the coastal design was the dominant but it has gotten a little bit of a bad rep. This light and breezy style has become synonymous with overstuffed rooms and kitschy, dated accessories. However, that assumption could not be further from the truth. The aesthetic in this spaces is the epitome of simplistic elegance. Every detail of these rooms is geared toward creating a haven from the hectic pace of day-to-day life even the most coastal spaces feel current. The best aspects of this coastal design is its ability to make you feel relaxed. As you’re only a few feet from the waves away, stepping into one of these rooms should make you feel as though you’re on vacation. The easiest way to achieve that outcome is by using material and color psychology. Starting with a base of neutrals. However, rather than using monochromatics to create a stark contrast, focus on including more muted tones. Tring sandy tans in flooring, off-whites and grays for walls and ceiling to create an environment that feels equally soothing and inviting

GRAND EGYPTIAN MUSEUM 2012 I Giza, EGYPTI Technical Shop drawings I 480,000 m2 HAZ MISR I Architect: Heneghan Peng I Client: Egyptian Ministry of Culture
The Grand Egyptian Museum “GEM� is a planned museum of artifacts of ancient Egypt. Described as the largest archaeological museum in the world, the museum is under construction and is scheduled to be partially open in 2018. The museum is sited on 50 hectares (120 acres) of land approximately two kilometers from the Giza pyramids and is part of a new master plan for the plateau. GEM takes place over all the world; because of paradigm shift occured in digital design technology. The primary axis of the museum is defined by the buildings position relative to the pyramids and describes a radial plan. The longitudinal spaces which run the length of the museum, from roughly north to south, are consequently perspectival in nature - there is a strong emphasis on the view towards the Pyramids. The glazed gallery south gables were developed to provide adjacent viewing areas. Adaption screens are positioned beside the glazing in order to control the light and glare, but in some instances these are pulled back from the glazing line to create viewing areas.

Every dimension between radial walls along this grid, which occurs every 6m, is a rational number. The floor trays are set out on this grid as are the stone joints. All artefacts will be seen against the backdrop of the radial walls, giving the qual-ity of planar or 2-dimensionality to multiple views in the east-west directions.

Control Lines Radial Grids A.b and G.b define the extent of the Main Building in Plan. All architectural and structural elements of the gallery are setout on one or other of these grids, as well as all fixtures, fittings, luminaires and stone joints.

PLANAR SPACE
he Chronological grid represents the secondary grid along which the visitor moves East-West. Although the adial walls separate the Museum into longitudinal bands, the trays are intended to counterbalance this by onnecting the bands together in an E-W direction.
n order that a ‘tunnel effect’ was not created by these exceptionally long gallery bands, the secondary chronoogical axis was reinforced in a number of ways:
ANOPTIC VIEWS: were created by introducing full-height openings that aligned to visually connect separate arts of the museum. (please see the chapter on the Panoptic Views)
RAY EDGES: were developed to include cave areas and were also aligned to both the chronological grid and he panoptic views in order to connect the gallery bands physically and visually
TAR ARTEFACTS: like the Solar boat and the Tutankhamun mask, were placed at the focal point of the anoptic views and at complementary positions in relation to one another.
RTEFACT ORIENTATION: within the Galleries was discussed in order that they draw the eye to the rest of he exhibition.
ach of these studies are presented in this document.

Planar Space
Egyptian art depicts planar space - everything is projected onto one depthless surface. This representation of space as planar is introduced into the gallery along the east-west chronological grid. Although there is a spatial depth to the museum, each view is punctuated by a series of planes, or backdrops against which the artefacts are viewed.
Perspectival Space The primary axis of the museum is defined by the buildings position relative to the pyramids and de-scribes a radial plan. The longitudinal spaces which run the length of the museum, from roughly north to south, are consequently perspectival in nature - there is a strong emphasis on the view towards the Pyramids. The glazed gallery south gables were developed to provide adjacent viewing areas. Adaption screens are positioned beside the glazing in order to control the light and glare, but in some instances these are pulled T2 - Sixth Submission - 30th September 2008 back from the glazing line to create viewing areas.

DIGITAL BOX EXHIBITIONS
The exhibition masterplan prepared by CI/Metaphor located digi box exhibitions within the digital streams. Due to design changes in the main gallery, such as the relocation of the solar boat, the digi box locations have been slightly modified. The locations shown below are the locations assumed in the current design.

Master plan showing function distribution
Our works strategy Finishes Set-out (Stone paving Ceiling Panels, Form work) is following the intersection beteen the planner and choronoligical axis. So our job is to draw the shop-drawings of the stone panels according to the design methodology through BIM systems using Revit software so we can coordinate our works with the other contractors in the same BIM model
