the designer

I am a Senior Interior Designer and 3D Visualizer with 12 years of experience in residential, commercial, and retail projects, including 3 years in the UAE. I specialize in transforming design concepts into clear, photorealistic visuals through still renders, walkthrough animations, and 360° VR experiences, helping clients understand and trust the design before execution. My background covers the full journey from site measurements and space planning to detailed 3D modeling, material and lighting development, and coordination with carpenters, factories, and site teams to ensure designs are practical and buildable. I work confidently with tools such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, 3ds Max with V‑Ray, Blender, Lumion, Photoshop, and other visualization software, and I am comfortable handling multiple projects, client presentations, and vendor communication at the same time. I am passionate about delivering high‑quality visual outputs that balance aesthetics, functionality, and real construction requirements, and I am always exploring new technologies like VR to create more immersive presentations for clients.
