The design was created as part of a creative
exercise after seeing their original website
ﬁ
improvements on the visual and user expe-
rience side.
Knowing that each time a major redesign is
suddently launched, user groups get con-
fused. I decided to take their existing layout
but improve it by incorporating more visual
and ux elements.
Thus some custom UI elements were creat-
ﬁ
which was selected as a way to boost the
product images by creating high contrast
and thus capturing the users attention and
increasing click through rate.

PRODUCTIONS
The design was created for an up and

a way to help them get better exposure
and let their clients see what they’ve
achieved so far.
The main purpose was to create a website
that would display their brand strenghts,
ﬁ
unique in the market and promote these
aspects.
Another key factor was to let users
experience some of the music they have
created and what clients have they worked
with when visiting their website, while also
showcasing the fact that they are always
active on the music scene, producing new
stuff, making the news and so on.
The design promoted these aspects while
being built with conversions, user
experience and marketing in mind and it
also required some custom UI assets.

The project is one of the most intriguing

during my early career.
I was approached by the client via a popular
freelancing website and it involved design-
ing a website for a documentary that would
be shot alongside the National Geographic
crew.
It involved using certain assets provided by
the client , following a certain theme and
art direction and waiting for feedback from
the documentary director himself. From
a technical point of view it involved using
advanced photo manipulation and compo-
sition techniques in order to blend multiple
images and achieve the desired dark look

The next website in my series of creative
exercises that were aimed to approach a
different design style that I haven’t done
in a while.
This time the purpose was to redesign their
existing website as a way to better promote
their product for both new & returning
users. Keeping this in mind I’ve narrowed
down the key features that makes this
product unique as well as indentify the user
groups that would visit the website, these
were: press, new users, pro users. Thus the
need to create a page that would be target-
ed at each of these users need.
After a breakdown of their interest and
reason for visiting the website, I was able to
identify the key areas that would be pres-
ent on the website.
The actual design was done to match their
product artstyle thus a lot of custom UI
elements were created that would have an
artistic and decayed look.

doing a site analysis of the

and also identifying the dif-
ferent zones that area found
in the area. Afterwards this
was done, the urban pro-

Building Placement & Concept
Proposed site
Landscape design
The landscape design phase, involved taking into consideration
things like walking patterns, routes, points of interest from the
area, local climate and providing a solution that will blend the
proposed building into it’s natural surroundings.
The main building concept, came from the idea to connect the
two major walking areas with a curved walking route that will
offer stunning perspectives of the natural surroundings. The
curved route, dictated the need to create a circular type
building, and thus the idea of a snail shell like structure
appeared.
TThe building placement was set based on the following key as-
pects: it shouldn’t disrupt the natural walking pattern, it should
offer a good focal point when viewed from a far, it shouldn’t be
placed next to the sport courts due to noise pollution or the
creek due to potential danger that children may face and it
also should have easy car access to minimize the impact of
greenery.

The site features 2

modules, a restaurant

and much much more.
Long corridors creating
a tunnel like feeling to
the inhabitants
By having a curved building
shape, the extra long corridors
appear shorter due to the
continous perspective
being interrupted.
All rooms benefit from more
ssunlight, not only at mid day
but also at sunrise and sunset.
The curved shape, provides
an excellent panoramic view of
the stunning surroundings.
The Main Building Shape Concept
The concept behind the small squarish module
was to have an interior garden space while also
avoiding the feel that you are stuck between 4
walls while offering the maximum natural lighting
possible, thus the solution to have C shape
module. This way the module has an interior
garden with a perspective view of the surround-
iings while benefiting from natural lighting.

runway restrictions. Also the existing airport, has a flight path
that’s almost directly above the city center, as well as the site
being overwhelmed by residential housing projects, plus
many more issues described in the upcoming pages.
My vision was to create a modern airport that would make the city
stand out, and generate interest, while also providing a solution to
the existing airport problems.
The concept came from the idea of flight and motion. An Aztec plane was chosen as reference as well as an eagles
beak to break the smooth lines and make it have a more aggresive, having thus a more imposing look and feel.
The initial terminal plan sketches that started it all. These were
drawn on a sticky note, in 3-4 minutes to get the general idea of the
airport plan while keeping in mind the requirements to not intersect
the required terminal flows.
After 11 months of hard work the project was finally done, the final concept as of
September 2013 can be seen on the left.

The Building Concept

Site Proposal
The site location is set near Nojorid, at a 3km distance from the ex-
isting airport. The proposal involved building a 3.5 Km runway &
taxiways according to the international standards, including the
runway markings, taxiways size as well as all the required facilities
like hangars, helipads,control tower, maintanance area, catering &
emergency services, defrosting area,etc.The site also features a
cargo terminal which is connected to a railroad for easy package
ttransport.

Catering and
Emergency services
The catering and emergency services were placed in a remote area
that wouldn’t compromise all the movement that happens in an
airport while also allowing easy vehicle access from the airports
entrance.
The emergency services building features 3 vehicles per each
service, according to the 1 million targeted passagers.

Cargo
Processing
The cargo processing has a space frame roof with multiple I
shaped beams to support it, and it features separate routes for
incoming and outgoing cargo. The outgoing cargo is transported to
the nearby railroad and from there shipped to different destinations.
