About
Amman Agricultural Patch aims to transform brown field sites into sustainable city farms that can better serve their local community. The project was inspired by forthcoming plans to vacate a substantial area - located in the Qwaismeh district in east Amman, one of the densest areas in the city. The proposed plan comprises growing areas designed following the Wheat Fields Linear System, a lab and amenity space, and it is supported by a water canal system.

I am an architect with a focus on projects with social open spaces. Since I have completed a bachelor's in architecture in the school of architecture and built environment at the German Jordanian University, I am looking forward to achieving a master’s degree and a Ph.D. in the field of urban landscape design. In the Arab world we lack green open spaces, with very dry cities. I want to become an academic architect so I can encourage future students in the Arab world to focus on green open space designs, and its importance on improving the quality of all of our lives.
