A project should give you what it was meant for. It sounds obvious and simple — but it takes a lot of experience, a lot of attention, and loving what you do. For half my life I've been building something — businesses, towers, malls, clinics, gyms. And I love that.
A bit about me
Most of the last fifteen years have gone into property — designing it, building it, fitting it out, and the companies that do the work. Along the way I've also worked with development companies, taking projects from the first sketch through to handover, then staying on to run them afterwards — the part where you find out what you actually built.
I'm a civil engineer with a big love for architecture. I know building materials — what they are, how they behave, how they age — and I spend a lot of time thinking about nature, and what building takes from it.
Residential and commercial. Medical clinics. Malls. Sports gyms. Towers, warehouses, showrooms. Different problem every time, same job underneath — build it properly, and make sure it does what it was built to do. I also own a green building consultancy, mostly because how much a building wastes gets decided very early, on paper, by people who never see the bill.
I'm from Jordan, based in Abu Dhabi, and I work in Arabic, English and Russian.
Speaking
I talk about why build quality and return get treated as opposites when they aren't — how much of what a building costs and how well it performs is settled in the first few weeks on paper, and what changes when the person drawing it is also the one who has to live with the result.
