The American University in Cairo Department of Architectural engineering AENG-352 Project “1”
Beyond style In this project, it was required to take on an architectural “role” of a chosen designer (which was Sir Norman Foster) and present an architecturally based critical review and “reading” of his work. After this preliminary review it was required to design a simple contemporary project in the spirit of the chosen designer, taking on his architectural persona in the multi-dimensional context of the given site. The Project required different presentation techniques including production of drawings using manual and digital techniques. Physical model of site and building that was the primary mode of exploration and design.
