TOPIC STATEMENT

East Village Gateway is the keyword and bridge that links and integrates:

• The society with nature

• The architectural surroundings

• The healthy environment

• The psychological aspect of society.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

Engaging the nature with the urban space WILL :

• Improve the healthy environment

• Improve the economic aspect

• Improve the psychological aspect

STATEMENT OF THE CHALLENGE

Lack of green cover in the urban space could adversely affect the sustainability of that space and its effectiveness. This might :

• Cause disconnections between the different parts of the urban space

• Adversely affect the psychological state of the community

• Increase air pollution

• Raise the level of the environmental noise

• Cause a lack of open spaces.

On a land of 230,500 sq. ft. in Clairemont Mesa, an urban

proposal has been suggested to develop this neighborhood.

The proposal has two major urban functions:

• Residential

• Commercial

The proposal was designed in :

• Freehand Sketching

• AutoCAD

• PowerPoint

• Producing Physical Models

I chose the minimum surface area of the user 18' x 18' that

the architectural space would be effective and successful

functionally.

CLAIREMONT MESA

MODERN LIFE COMPLEX5

The concept came as a translation of Human Scale

according to the fact that humanitarian criterion is the

main factor in building the concept of the design.

Then I applied that module on the entire site in both

residential and commercial sections, and thus the site

follows one system.

This distribution has its constructability benefits in regards

of determining construction units on the ground

programmatically and sequentially.

BIOGRAPHY:

At a young age I created my first house model with the help of my father. In doing this I realized it was my dream

to become an architect. My goal is always to engage architecture with the community and bring livable art to all. Being

sustainably-minded, I view my desire to create a positive interaction with the built environment and the natural

environment.

I constantly seek to involve myself with challenges that provide opportunities for growth. For instance, I have hands on

experience in structural engineering. I use this background to inform my design process and show the strength of the

architectural components to the community.

My academic experience has given me the tools to provide a strong vision of architecture to the community and bring

architecture to life while my professional experience enhanced the ability to integrate both Architecture and

Engineering experience within the design phases and to allow for greater design practices.
