BACHELOR PROJECT

01

University Project - thesis

Final year architecture student U of K - Sudan
May 2011
A great deal of research was invested to
come up with a well thought-out master
plan for the entire project and a detailed
design for the main venue (the football
stadium), the stadiums form responds to the
requirements of the project of creating a
national icon out of this venue.

The design concept has emerged from

purely
functional
requirements,
for
spectators it provides a logical but
meanwhile a sensory structure; the stadium
accommodating seats for over 75000
spectator arranged in three tiers, over 3000
of those are for business and another 2500
are in boxes, broad promenades on level 2 &
7 from lobbies around the stadium to allow
spectators' freedom of movement, a
pleasant environment to linger & ease of
orientation round the stadium.
The arena is visible from the lobby, the
upper lobby at a height of 27m offers a
panoramic view over the sports city.

Initial conceptual Idea:

Soft curved organic lines inspired by nature.

Shell shaped, layered roof.
Faade enriched with roof layers and exposed
structure.

Comprehensively studied Master planning.

Introduction of suspended roof over spectators plaza.

A dramatic suspended roof that hovers between the stadium
structure and the recreational commercial hub defines a semi enclosed
area where spectators who have come to spend the day can enjoy a
delightful shopping and leisure experiences, they can enjoy watching
events through giant screens installed in different locations of the plaza
while being protected from high intensity of sun radiation and rain.
While this large roof service yet another significant purpose hence it is
fitted with photovoltaic thin film cells which should create sufficient
energy to light the entire stadium building.

Nature inspired organization and lines for the master

plan.

Structural system of stadium (highlighted).

Design Challenge:
Because sports stadia are so closely
geared to accurate functional requirements
(clear sightlines, efficient high volume
circulation, etc) this is a building form where
forms follow almost directly functions, and
the creation of a delightful design was faced
by a handful of obstacles including:

The unwelcoming effect of the natural

inward looking.
(large/wide) areas of car parking.

Gigantic scale.

Inflexible elements.

Tough finishing.

Municipality building, AlQaseem, SA
A complete design set was prepared for a
proposed renovation of the lecture and
seminars hall in the Unaizah city municipal

dropped projections in the ceiling give a
sense of depth to the otherwise small room.

GENERAL RURAL HOSPITAL

Architectural Design Project
Design, visualization

August 2011 - Under Construction

Tangasi, Northern State, Sudan

Upon its expected opening on Jan.

2015 this hospital is expected to be the
largest and the most important health
service center in the Northern region of
Alshamalia, with the Dialysis and Accident
ER being the main departments as a
response to our studies conducted in the
region revealing a great need to these two
departments in particular.

A conventional spine layout was used, the

spine being the main circulation route in the
vertical axis along which all the different
departments radiate in vertical axes.
Vast green areas separate departments from
one another to enhance the micro-climate in
the site, moreover, verandahs are used the
site over to provide shading to the openings
and enhance the natural ventilation which
would help greatly in reducing the need for
mechanical air conditioning in the hot
seasons.
