Omar Ibrahim ARCHITECT

I’m a senior design architect and a former teaching assistant at NGU and MSA University. I’m always interested in science and how it can be applied to architecture.

I graduated from MSA University in 2017 and have since won and participated in numerous architectural competitions. Also, I have an interest in building technology and how to apply it to decrease the use of energy inside buildings.

THE ORIGIN POINTS

The history of Sharjah is a group of layers and events stacked together dated back to 5000 years creating a unique characteristic for every aspect of the city. Starting from the integration of spaces, activities and the visual datums of the city to the spiritual feelings.

The project celebrates this history by identifying the stacking process and how the datums affected the city history thorough all aspects including architecture. This is achieved through a process of studying spaces and applying results on the external form and the interior experience of the museum to provide rich and expressive journey for the users by using the historical architecture features of the city in a contemporary way to serve this purpose.

Form Finding Diagram

The main experience was that there were four main datums which are Residential buildings, Rola tree, governmental buildings and the mountain which is hugging the city as a main datum.

LOCATION

Our design tried to achieve a deep relation between the history of the city and its urban life mixed with the traditions and architecture features throughout a philosophical design process that can suit a city with such context Our design tried to achieve a deep relation between the history of the city and its urban life mixed with the traditions and architecture features throughout a philosophical design process that can suit a city with such context

Vertical Planes: L-Shaped and Parallel planes are stable and self supporting and can stand alone in a space as they are flexible space defining elements. They can be used in combination with one another elements of form to define a rich variety of spaces.

Jury Comment :

“The design has reviewed and informed its design approach by the context and local identity. The response is well thought-through and the clarity of plan and wayfinding is admirable. The historical references in the project are very exciting in their capacity to inspire both programme and architecture. However, there is a lack of clarity in the presentation of the project, as the floor plans are confused in their relation to ground level. The project, while being inward-looking, could easily look to its surroundings instead. Vertical circulation could also be improved.”

PROJECT ARCHITECTURE

The architecture of our project aimed to express and deal with the sensitive nature of the city and explain philosophically how can architecture deal with such sensitive context in a contemporary way To avoid any loss of identity and to continue the development journey of the city

VANTAGE POINT ROME PAVILION

The project is settled in Piazza Caffarelli near Campidoglio square in Rome. The place is central and well frequented by people because the view. After the survey of the area, we designed a 40 sq m building that projects its shape along the four views we thought are the best. In this way there are four floors that go out from the terrace and are dispose in different high: two at -2 meters, one at the terrace level and one at + 3meter. After this operation we decide to cover our building with a organic roof that defends people from the sunshine.

Festive Nodes

A Celebration of Freedom When hearing this phrase for the first time, it will leave you with a nice feeling inside. achieving The Bahamas Islands have always been known for their Junkanoo Celebration, which is a Bahamian celebration that reflects the proud spirit they have. The roots of this celebration go back to the enslaved Africans that were there and given 3 days of the Christmas holiday to celebrate. The project celebrates the personality and values of the Bahamian people by making the project a festive area to celebrate this idea. The design reflects the Bahamas’ distinct culture, social life, climate, and geographical characteristics, rising from the ground and taking amplitude from the loud rush of Junkanoo Dance. The festivity nodes played an important role in expressing freedom, resolving emotions, and socializing with one another.

The building was designed in two different approaches expressing freedom. It can be in the shape of a freeform or a large open plan, but all of this must be affected by the personality and the values of the Bahamians. As a result, the height of the public area was designed high and the accommodation was designed low, using the imitation of loud and silent affected by this. using more than strategy in design, such as the welcoming elevation that represents the friendly and hospitable attitude of the Bahamian people. To avoid being affected by hurricanes, freeform and curved shapes prevent direct pressure. sloping the roof from south to north to reduce lifting forces. Hope, freedom, celebration and socializing all this, describe the festivity nodes.

Fragmented Mystery

From the beauty of the reddish rocks and the blue sky’s integration, a man can find a source of inspiration that reveals hidden dimensions and explores mysteries. The poetry of motion existing in the particular context and imprints of mountains explains and shows a lot about the human history. These qualities and poetics merged with the shade and shadows generated from the natural light create a spiritual journey for the human mind that shapes and changes its perception toward our continuous development. This whole scene and journey provide a new way to perceive architecture and intervene in such a magnificent context.
