Shelter for EPAA - Design Build Fall 2017 Fifth Year
In collaboration with: 14 other students from studio
Prof. Gregory Spaw This project required us to design a shelter for the Environment and Protected Areas Authority (EPAA) in the UAE. We were given a site on the rocky mountains of Wadi Helo near Sharjah. The client requirements involved a sheltered place for sleeping, a storage space for specimens they would collect on site and a fire place for warmth and cooking. A major contraint for us was that the site is not accessible by vehicles so the shelter had to be light enough to be carried to the site by our manpower. This is why we chose light-weight aluminum tubes which were weaved together to form an interlocking framework as the primary structure over which fabric was attached. This approach enabled us to minimize the assembly time on site and be efficient in putting together the whole structure. I was predominantly responsible for detailing and designing the flooring and its associated drawings and while also being involved in constructing the final mockup.

SITE ANALYSIS SITE ANALYSIS ARC 402 | Spring 2017 SITE ANALYSIS SITE ANALYSIS ARC 402 | Spring 2017 ARC 402 | Spring 2017
The project was to design a maritime museum at a site facing the Dubai Creek. This was a comprehensive studio wherein we were asked to deliver all the drawings that would be required at the submission of an actual project including site analysis, code requirements, ADA, specifications, detailed structural plans etc., Due to the scope and requirements for the studio, we had to approach the project in pairs. The site ANALYSIS location is very unique in the sense that is easily SITE ARC 402 | Spring 2017 accessible by the water taxi, metro, public buses Process Models and private vehicles. The Museum required huge gallery spaces wherein actual boats could be housed. The concept behind our design was to design a Museum which resembles something emerging from the water. An integral part of the design was to make the museum interact with the waterscape where boats SITE ANALYSIS could be docked. My contribution to the project ARC 402 |site Spring 2017 programammatic planning, included ananlysis, finalizing the plans, elevations, wall section, detail SITE ANALYSIS drawings, ARC 402 | renderings Spring 2017and building the wall-section Vehicular Circulation model.

Prof. George Katodrytis This course involved an explorative series of collaging and creating objects using various softwares like Z-Brush, Grasshopper, Maya and Keyshot. Emphasis was laid on creating a detailed model which could be placed in a natural or artificial environment that could be an image or digitally modeled. Earlier projects included collaging of found industrial objects to create a machine or system of machines. Later versions included articulately generating and detailing the model and backdrop by using multiple different softwares to reach the final output.

In collaboration with: Gopika Praveen Zahra’a Nasralla’ah Adegunwa Odulana
Student Center
The project was to design a breezeway connecting the Architecture building to the Student Centre at the second floor level, on campus at the American University of Sharjah. The blank canvas of the site became the catalyst driving our decision towards providing shade from the harsh sun hence allowing for a comfortable tranPULSE sition between the buildings. Major points CANOPY CONDITION of enquiry kept in mind while designing Space Planning include: Structure, Global form, Skin, Local Units, Material Studies, Site Conditions, Joinery, Light conditions and Program. Our approach on the project was to design a breezeway which would allow SMALL for multiple spaces based on sizes of 2-3 EXTERIOR LARGE SPACE EXTERIOR people, 7-10 people and 20+ people. SPACE LARGE My role in the project involved space INTERIOR LARGE SPACE EXTERIOR planning, digital modelling, connection SPACE detailing, renderings and building a physical mockup of the project.

Extension to ARTS Building Spring 2016 T h i r d Ye a r
Prof. Camilo Cerro This project was designed as a replacement of the existing extension of the ARTS building on campus at the American University of Sharjah.
PROJECT LOCATION
The building had to fullfill the program requirements which included a theatre, study rooms, offices, labs and conference rooms. My priority when designing this building was to create a public space which penetrates through the building and unites all levels of the building together, visually and physically. I tried to achieve this by having a wide monumental staircase connecting all levels of the building where people could gather and hangout. Solar Orientation

Digital Fabrication Spring 2016 T h i r d Ye a r
Prof. Gregory Spaw The first project, starting on the left utilized folding techniques in conjunction with thin gauge mild steel or stainless steel to create a lighting diffuser. This filter was designed to work with a standard, store-bought light bulb. The Kern HSE 400w large format laser cutter was used in this project. My design was to create a module which could be repeated and this would allow transmission of light through techniques of folding and bending. The next project was to design an ergonomically-minded 3D-printed spice grinder, one that responds to the hands of the person using it. Accuracy in digital modeling was emphasized to ensure watertight models necessary for the additive fabrication technique. I used the Dimension 1200 3-D printer to print my design. The last project required us to create a series of tiles that employs depth and continuity. The digital models were interfaced with the 3-axis CNC router via Mastercam. This gave us the derived MDF master molds.To ease the production of numerous tiles, the thermoformer was used with the milled master mold to form a series of styrene molds. Using these, I poured a series of cement and plaster mix tiles to derive all the tiles on the final board. My design was inspired by the curves and undulations of the sand dunes. With a few slight pulling and pushing of points I arrived at my design which focussed more at the junctions where the tiles come together. Some selected projects including my light diffuser project have been published online on www. studyarchitecture.com via an interview with Prof. Gregory Spaw.

Inhabitation Spring 2014 S e c o n d Ye a r
Prof. Alice Vialard This was an interior focussed project in which were given a modular brick to manipulate by rotation, push/pull and shifting to create an interior functional volumetric condition focussed on the ritual of bathing. These brick walls were manipulated differently to create varied experiences by controlling the amount of light that enters each space. The emphasis was on the experiences created by manipulating the bricks. The bricks were varied in different spaces to accomodate various functions like a hot bath, cleansing purposes and for relaxation.

Al Muwaileh Community Center F a l l 2 0 15 Third Year
Prof. Igor Peraza This was an infill project located in the Al-Muwaileh area near the University City of Sharjah. This project required us to design a Community Center for public use. The Community Center aims at providing activities for the entertainment of the public both within the building and the outdoors. Keeping in mind the area around Al-Muwaileh which is mostly commercial, residential and not pedestrian or child friendly, my proposal was to design a Community Center which not only caters to the needs and activities of the adults but also provides a platform for the children to participate in activities. To fit in with the typology of the neighborhood wherein most buildings have a concrete/CMU based type of construction, the same technique has been utilized in the project and the concrete is exposed. To give the building a contemporary sense and to shade the interior from the harsh sun, it is cladded in corten steel panels which vary in density and rhythm depending on the function of the space on the interior.
