Hi, I’m Sufyan. I am an architectural designer also knows as architectural assistant. I enjoy the concept of designing buildings but also hold a passion for model making and product making. I love to learn and a usable form of representation would consist of having hybrid drawings and heavy software usage but for my last project I wanted to challenge myself. My Thesis focuses on the idea of memory and feminism, I build my idea on an artist known as Paula Rego. As the design scheme is based on Rego’s work, it kind of takes over the architectural heritage and becomes this traditional style of designing. The thesis project consists of painting, hand craftsmanship and hand drawing accompanied by software. As an architectural designer I aim to create with passion and ambition, to learn and challenge the boundaries of design. Designing from an artists view connected me stronger with the narrative of the project. Also being from the country itself it had a unique attachment to my personal life as a lot of my work in 1st year was based on my own memories in Portugal.
