About
I am a recent graduate of the American University in Dubai (AUD) with a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) degree.
Aawama explores innovative architectural and urban design solutions to address global challenges like rising sea levels, land scarcity, and food security. Focused on Cairo's Imbaba neighborhood, plagues by overcrowding, pollution, and land scarcity, it aims to integrate resilient and eco-conscious design principles to create a sustainable community. Central to the project is revitalizing the Nile River area, once vibrant with floating houseboats integral to Egypt's cultural heritage. The proposed solution involves establishing a sustainable floating community adaptable to fluctuating water levels, mitigating flooding risks, providing housing, food markets, and agriculture, serving as a prototype for Nile developments.
