Spatial Design
INTERGENERATIONAL SPACE
This space is about people and bringing different generations together, The design is based on three key elements transparency, light, and natural colors. People feel warm and comfortable in a bright environment with natural daylight. All the rooms have sunlight into them and they all have windows on every side so everything is visible to everyone.
Visibility is essential for the elderly and especially for people with dementia, it helps them to circulate better in the space. The main concept was to have small intimate spaces within the larger space. People can sit in the niches and have their own space and also they would be able to interact with others. This space lets kids and the elderly interact with each other and communicate and also it creates a whole new experience for them and changes their quality of life.
CANBERRA NATIONAL ARBORETUM VILLAGE CENTRE
This project focused on the transformation of Canberra's Arboretum village center with component-based design and its ability to transform the space, Canberra National Arboretum village center is an architectural masterpiece. The most important part of the building is the ceiling with a unique design; the other beautiful thing about this space is the panorama view.
in the component design the intention was not to block the ceiling and also to celebrate the view. The base idea of this design was framing the view, so all partition components are designed from numerous hollow steel frames. Other objects and services follow the same design principles, simple lines. From all the angles the view could be seen in different frames and would be appreciated by everyone.
University of Canberra, Health section
This project was to design a concourse between different buildings as a transition space with a focus on play. This space is designed for different age groups with consideration of climate and nature. The planning was influenced by aboriginal art and paintings. This space has a main walkway and includes six separate zones including playgrounds, a theatre, and a resting area. Playgrounds were designed based on four natural elements, water, wind, fire, and soil. People can walk through this space enjoying the surroundings and the water running through makes a nice breeze in summer, also they can sit down and spend some time with children, and students can use the space to study or just have lunch with friends in the shade.
