Transformative Distortions

About the project

Transformative Distortions starts from a rigid square module and tests how far it can bend without breaking its logic. By adding hinge points and off-axis rotations, the square folds, shears, and reorients into new configurations—turning a static grid into behavior. The piece demonstrates how simple rules can produce complex motion

HydroGAN

About the project:

HydroGAN is an immersive, satirical “product launch” for AI-generated water that critiques techno-consumerism and the hidden resource costs of AI. Visitors trade a thumbprint to enter, watch a keynote, and are sold tiered hydration “upgrades” by brand ambassadors—blurring spectator and recruit. The fake product exposes the real trade-off: data extraction and freshwater diverted to cool machines, where the user becomes the product.

A presentation room with a large screen showing a man speaking, surrounded by labeled elements like curtains, a bench, shelf, product bottles, spotlight, and a wayfinding vinyl. There is a table with merchandise and arrows on the floor.
A device labeled 'Scan Finger' connected to a receipt printer, printing out a receipt from HydroGAN with personal data fields and terms and conditions below.
Black T-shirt with colorful swirling patterns and HydroGAN branding, along with brochures and round stickers featuring similar designs and phrases like "Drink the Data" and "Intelligence Liquefied."

About the Project

Sensorial is my thesis project: a boarding-school concept for children on the autism spectrum (higher support needs). It uses a radial layout with leading forms, predictable circulation, and carefully controlled daylight to reduce sensory load. Sensoria was selected by Ithra for exhibition at the Graduate Expo in Saudi Arabia.
