About
I became an architect because I was always building — drawing floor plans as a child, constructing things from nothing, imagining spaces before they existed. Architecture just gave it a bigger canvas.
About
That instinct became a discipline. Over five years in the Eastern Province, I've contributed to more than 150 residential projects — homes where Saudi families live, host, and rest. Most of that work was in luxury residential design at MOF Architects. Today I co-lead DOT Architects, a firm my partner Abdullah and I built from nothing: the name, the identity, the systems, the clients. Architecture and practice-building, learned in parallel.
I design from the inside out. Before a line is drawn, I want to understand how a family moves through their day — where they want quiet, where they want light, how a room should feel at seven in the morning versus seven at night. The architecture follows from that. The result is work that feels precise and inevitable: every proportion, material, and threshold considered — and none of that consideration visible. Just the calm.
What I'm building toward is simple to say and hard to do: homes in the Gulf that belong in the same conversation as the best residential architecture anywhere. This region deserves Homes designed with international rigor, rooted in how we actually live: the courtyard, the guest wing, the family gathered at dusk. That is the work I want my name attached to, project after project, for decades.
That combination is rare: I understand design at the detail level and practice at the systems level. I know how a great project is conceived, and I know what it takes to deliver it. When I work on a project, I bring both.
In practice
Process
A clear sequence keeps the work calm: decisions are made early, tested carefully, and carried through to construction.
Every project begins with a conversation, not a drawing. I want to understand how you live — your daily rhythms, your relationship to light, what a home should feel like at its best. That understanding becomes the brief, and the brief becomes the architecture.
From the brief, I develop one clear organizing idea. Not a mood board. A spatial concept that answers the problem and responds to the site — tested through sketches, plans, and sections until it is honest and resolved.
The concept becomes a building. Plans and facades developed as one coherent system. Materials selected for warmth, longevity, and precision. Every detail examined — not for decoration, but because detail is where architecture succeeds or fails.
I remain closely involved through construction. Design intent does not survive on paper alone — it requires someone who cares enough to be present. The building you receive should be the building we designed.
