ABOUT ME Passionate in art in general from childhood. Architecture fascinates me. With a desire to explore how science and technology can be used to improve the performance of buildings both socially and environmentally, architecture has brought out the dichotomy of my personality, allowing me to engage both creatively and scientifically with the aesthetic and functional aspects of design..

Project Brief
Urban Design
Abdul-maqsood Khoja St. Revamp The location is distinguished by its presence in one of the most prestigious neighborhoods of the city. The wide variety of activities such as restaurants, coffee shops, etc made it a popular destination for the youth. The street identity is reflecting the future of Jeddah design by creating minimalist designs using straight line as a unit of the design inspired by Jeddah’s streets grid. Simultaneously , the street also connects itself to its namesake, Abdul-Maqsood Khoja, the well-respected scholar. Elements of literature, like Arabic calligraphy and literary quotes that allude to his work would be added to the street to enhance the street’s identity.
