MON ARCHI

  1- I went to wix and signed uo with my email address then started answering question about the website that I was trying to make.                         2- Then I chose a template and customized the main title, which will then be changed to: WELCOME TO MOUAD KHIRI'S ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO 3- The software generated a description of my website, then I changed the background 4- Then again I changed the background to something less abstract yet more related to my field whilst also matching the theme. I found the background in unsplash that I thought would match  5- after that, I changed the font and merged the backgrounds together. I think this background is a good choice because it draws the eyes to the center whilst also matching the dark theme of the website.  7- I wrote an about me paragraph as an introduction to my work.                 but then I changed the background and added a picture of myself. then I added a contact page for people to send me any concerns or remarks they

  Carlo Scarpa                                                               portrait of Carlo Scarpa                          Venice was the birthplace of Scarpa. His family moved to Vicenza when he was two years old, and he spent a large portion of his early years there. He returned to Venice with his father and brother following the death of his mother when he was thirteen. While attending the Academy of Fine Arts, Carlo concentrated on his studies of architecture. After earning his degree from the Accademia in Venice and being appointed Professor of Architecture, he worked as an apprentice to Francesco Rinaldo, an architect. Scarpa wed Nini Lazzari (Onorina Lazzari), Rinaldo's niece. With its roots in a sensual material imagination, his architecture is incredibly sensitive to the passage of time, from seasons to history. He and Giuseppe Mazzariol advised Mario Botta's thesis; after Scarpa finished his restoration and garden for the Fondazione Querini Stampalia, the latter b

                                                              ANTONI GAUDI Portrait of Gaudi     The most notable representative of Catalan Modernism, Antoni Gaudi was a Spanish architect and designer who lived from June 25, 1852, to June 10, 1926. The style of Gaudi's creations is highly unique and sui generis. The majority, including his most famous creation, the Sagrada Familia church, are found in Barcelona. Mackay, David (1985).    Gaudi's love of nature, architecture, and religion all had an impact on his creative output. He gave meticulous attention to every aspect of his works, incorporating carpentry, stained glass, wrought ironwork, and ceramics into his architectural designs. Additionally, he presented novel approaches to material treatment, like trencadís, which made use of leftover ceramic fragments. ( Quiroga et al, no date). Numerous of Gaudi’s creations have been designated as World Heritage sites by UNESCO: the Park Güell, the Palau Güell, and the Casa Milà in

    FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT     born on 8 June 1867  Wisconsin, United States / Richland Center. 91 years old, died April 9, 1959, Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.   This architect is one of my favorites, an inspiration to many architecture enthusiasts, he was able to combine many diverse styles of architecture back in his days.   Over a 70-year creative span, he created over 1,000 different structures. Wright was a major figure in the twentieth-century architectural movements. His works and the hundreds of apprentices he trained through the Taliesin Fellowship had an impact on architects all over the world (Caves, R. W. (2004)).Wright espoused the idea of "organic architecture," which is design that is in balance with both the natural world and humankind. Fallingwater (1935), dubbed "the best all-time work of American architecture," is a prime example of this philosophy.[/3]  In addition to creating the idea of the Usonian home in Broadacre City, which is his vision f

           Severe earthquakes often result in significant damage to buildings,  infrastructures, and cause casualties. For example, the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake in Japan caused over 20,000 deaths and missing, and 190,000 buildings were damaged (Okada et al., 2011; Takewaki et al., 2011). Protecting building structures under earthquakes is of great concern in earthquake-prone countries (Mazzolani, 2001; Azinovic et al., 2016; Tesfamariam, 2022; Zhang et al., 2022). To address this challenge, building isolation systems are applied to mitigate seismic hazards (Morgan, 2007; Mohammed and Mohd, 2011; Takewaki et al., 2013). The aim of applying building isolation is to reduce either the storey or inter-storey vibrations transmitted from the seismic ground motions (Hu, 2014). In practice, two types of passive building isolation systems are commonly used, which are the base isolation system (Jangid and Datta, 1995; Deb, 2004) and the super-structure isolation system, including the inter-storey

             After giving some it thought, I have decided that my project will be a hypothesis of a new way of protecting people in old homes such as Riads against earthquakes. Here is a further representation of what this prototype will look like.    comparison between the conventional structure and the seismic isolation structure. For more detailed information, please click this link .

  After some thought, I think this project is going to be a perfect portrait of helping the people struggling in seismic areas.                                                                      Collapsed building.            Back home, we were told in class to go under steady tables in case of an earthquake, as that will protect us even if we the building falls down, my idea is, why not take the same concept and apply to big rooms, where we are going to make steady structure like tables , but they will be bigger to fit a whole room. That way, even if the building falls down people will be safer and the authorities will know where they are specifically, for them to be saved.                                                                Imlil town before earthquake.                      Subsequently, my final project will be about a traditional family house that we usually see in the Moroccan countryside, it will be made out of mud, clay, rammed earth, rocks and other regional mater

  Subject Area: Architecture  Project Title: Riad El Kheyr Project Aims and Objectives: For my final project, I will be researching a new way of making homes more secure and anti-earthquakes. This final project will be about a traditional family house (Riad) that we usually see in the Moroccan countryside, it will be made out of mud, clay, tiles, zelig, rammed earth, rocks, and other regional materials. It will be located in one of the most endangered villages in Morocco called Imlil. For this project, I will try to make it as realistic as possible, therefore I will make a prototype out of these materials and some plans of the two floors, ground floor, first floor, and courtyard. Which is the most common in these homes. With a brief research article about the area's demography factors and its typography. Finally, all of this will be done by the first week of December. Inspiration: The architects who inspire me are: William Of Sens:  French  Guillaume De Sens , (died Aug. 11

          Earthquakes are one of the most fatale natural disasters. Thus humans have always tried to minimize it's damage, through researching ways of predicting it, and most importantly through anti earthquake designed buildings. Subsequently, this project aims to find a new way of minimizing the damage at a reasonable cost.            Back home, I used to live in a city with high seismic activity (Agadir), therefore, I have been through countless earthquake situations, some of which were hardly even felt, whilst other ones shook me to my very core. But the latest one was the harshest. Which got me thinking, what ways could we use in order to make homes, especially in the countryside, safer in cases of earthquakes?                example of a Moroccan Riad.

   

         Advert Patek Philippe ad campaign advertising fall winter 2013/2014      Layout: This advertisement is a good example of a simple layout, the most important object being the watch, well displayed in a brown background.      Usage images and text: The second most important thing would be the image, although it is in black and white it gives the advertisement a vintage look.      Message in the advert: the picture coupled with the important message that goes straight to the point both show that fundamentally this watch was designed to be worn by different generations, or in other words  part of a family's legacy, something precious that bonds generations together, and that compliments the timeless aspect of the watch. Let's also analyze the simplicity of the logo  at the top right corner. displaying the brand's name and simple logo design, additionally, the message "Begin your own tradition"  attracts the targeted audience (wealthy families).          Wha
