Abstract 2D and 3D Design Compositions
(Al Hussein Technical University 2024-2026)
The Creative Design Studio course introduces students to the fundamental principles, orders, and elements of basic design, focusing on their application in both 2D and 3D abstract geometric compositions. Through hands-on projects and exercises, students will explore key principles such as balance, proportion, unity, contrast, hierarchy, movement, and rhythm, and learn how to effectively integrate these elements into cohesive designs while adopting orders such as linear, radial, centralised, clustered, and grid-based. The course emphasises developing creative design skills, fostering an understanding of spatial design, and mastering the use of shapes, forms, colours, textures, and scale in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional contexts.
Note: The following content features a selection of works from four sections, two of which were co-supervised in collaboration with Dr. NEMEH RIHANI, Dean of the faculty, and Arch. MARIAM SALEH, a member of the department.

Early conceptualization phase.
In the early stages of the project, students were introduced to an orthographic grid of 2×2 cm units, along with the designated design elements and their associated rules. They began by conceptualising their ideas through sketches in their sketchbooks, then refined these sketches to align with the assigned grid and adhere to the specified elements, ensuring a structured, balanced, and proportional approach to their design development.

2D Composition submission by SARA Al-JARBA
This project had a six-week timeline and was carried out in four stages, with two milestone submissions. The first formative submission occurred after the 2D composition was developed and finalised. The second formative submission took place after the 3D composition was completed, incorporating feedback received from the first formative submission.
A selection of projects exhibited on the floor of the SBEE Deanship, showcasing outstanding student work.
