In the 8th semester of university, Our design project was Commercial-Residential Complex in Newcairo just in front of AUC, The plot area was 3600m2 When me and my partner focused on the clients of our site, they were people at their mid age, by focusing more on what common problems they are facing, we found out it's lack of self-esteem due to spending a lot of their time on social media, seeing more about other people's lives and comparing their own life with them. So we decided to make our building having more communal spaces for people to communicate with each others instead of spending time on social media. For the commercial part we made it in the ground floor and by making the building introvert, it has created a large plaza at it's center to have those communal areas more for people. And for the residential part, we made a communal space between each four apartments. Also, for sustainability we made all apartments angled to catch wind also cascading the building to have greenery.

Landscape plant-book is a university submission in Landscape course in the 7th semester. It was for designing landscape grouping and knowing more features about plants. Deciding which tree could fit the space and be suitable with which shrub and which flower would give the mood needed for the space are all important for designing the landscape grouping. Landscape design is the analysis, planning, and design of exterior living spaces. Landscape design today integrates a wide variety of elements to achieve functional and beautiful spaces for outdoor living. and the plants grouping is the most important part in landscape design which needs wide knowledge in plants features and usage to create the best combination between nature and culture.
A landscape design project for a house with 75m2 garden. The client was keen about Earth design so the inspirations went to the natural materials furniture like wood, clay, more greenery and neutral color palette earth tone. Also from the user profile, it's observed that the more activities places made the more satisfaction the client would reach. a really high wall was surrounding the gardening as it's fence so we needed to add high trees fencing and to add horizontal layers to the wall to make it visualized with less height. Auto-cad is used in planning, photoshop in mood boards and inspirations, 3ds max for modeling and lumion-11 in rendering.
