About Myself:

About the Project:
A multi-functional building located in Birmingham Jewellery Quarter, that manufacturers, sells, and teaches the craft of making Jewellery, to celebrate the rich history of the area and its impact on the city.

The building consists of three blocks each with different heights, united by a common glazed canopy for a continuous connection, this form provides a dynamic fluidity in the floor plans with a welcoming appearance in order to ensure better user experience and to encourage the public to visit and interact with the different external and internal spaces. 

The Building Façade was designed in a way that responds to the history of the site and its surroundings by celebrating both the old and the new as it uses contemporary building technics, including, double-skin façades that consist of lots of glass and operable louvers.
