I’m a multidisciplinary designer and filmmaker based in London, working across production design, visual storytelling, and spatial design. With roots in both Egypt and Switzerland, my work explores identity, memory, migration, and the emotional power of visual worlds. Drawing from backgrounds in design, film, and contemporary art, I create immersive narratives that connect people to place, culture, and story. Whether designing for screen, exhibitions, or brands, I bring a strong conceptual approach and a distinctive visual language that blends research, symbolism, and craft.
