ARSIA MESBAHthe Portfolio of

From a very young age, I have always been interested in engineering, ar t and social science. While studying architecture, I have tried to blend these with creativity and visualization. Modern, functional and creative architecture is my concern and at the same time I put the possible future of architecture in my attention, therefore, in the third year I am working on Biophilic design that might be highly in fashion in the future. I have a soft spot for innovative structures and their f inal contribution into the final and exterior design. I am an architecture enthusiast, and I would study the same if I had a chance to be born for the second time .

Consideration of other types of ar t as great sources of inspiration. Photography and cinema are my favourites and also painting; modern sculpture and industrial design fascinate me. I study architecture in all other countries from Mexico to Morocco through media. Reading sources on sociology and psychology and history. I have a great passion for using and exploring varied architectural programs. Being a learner all the time.

Decided to be an Art and Architecture Student for rest of my life.

The whole project is based on biophilic design and idea. As the site is green and connected to ur-ban aria the project will be able to benefit from a high quality environment that is connected to na-ture. Living close to urban aria brings lower level of health and social problem. Our brain works more functional to sensory patterns and signals that are generated by nature. Reports suggests that places that use natural lighting and ventilation are space with lower stress, better motivation and perfor-mance.

This project consists of 2 part. The main part is a library with a winter garden located in Whitton Park in Lincoln and an audience platform located in West Common Park nexy to the Whitton Park.

This project is based on the north-west part of the city in Whitton Park with an area of 29,552m2, a small park with almost no facility. This park is surrounded with residential building and more of them are under construction. In that area of the city there is no public library. A good thing is this park is located next to the west common park where sport facility exist therefore it seems by en-hancing the educational level of this area in conjunction with sport activity, the overall landscape would be very benecial to local people. This library will link surrounding residential area in terms of public education and convert this empty park to a useful and benecial place.

MY WORKS FROM SECOND YEAR OF BA ARCHITECTURE

This is a structure designed by me as a part of a group project based PU Evansville in Alaska.


During the second year of my architecture course we did a number of small visual projects in dif fer-ent parts of world. In this section there are some examples of them.

THE MILL ROAD ART AND CULTURAL CENTRE

The initial stage of converting my idea into model making.

Method: Playing with simple boxes.

This project is supposed to be a general enhance-ment to a deprived part of Cambridge city, which is Romsey Town. The whole area looks to get forgot-ten by authorities and other people. People who live here have dif ferent cultural and traditional cul-tures but dont have much chance to corporate into the host society and they seem to be a bit or more isolated from the rest of people living in Cambridge. The price of properties and anything else is relatively less than other parts of Cambridge and this could be a great attraction for young people and families to move into this area, which will result in economic growth in this part of city.

My project is a building where can accommodate cultural and art events and has a flexible design to adapt dif ferent situations. A range of activities can take place in this building from any sort of exhibi-tions, cultural events or ar t events usually based on the cultures and backgrounds of local people of Romsey town therefore they can witness some-thing related to their culture and tradition and also they will be to see how their background is reflect-ed in a public space like this building.

I am very fascinated by any material and object and I love making models especially in the form of sculpture. I see architecture throght sculpture and sculpting.

Photography is an insaparable part of my life. Cam-era is my etra eye and i take it everywhere. I work with both digital and analoge cameras. I am also familiar with any digital photography program. To me this is not just a tool for recording but for creat-ing inspiration sources.

I took this photo in a poor area of Bristol. I sat my camera waiting for the right person arriving at right occasion.

Method: Analog photography.

I captured these images during my visit to The Henry Moore Foundation. I was very fascinarted by his works. I thought his sculptures can be seen as breathtak-ing structures, spaces forms and even textures.

Method: Digital photography.
