Faisal’s thesis dissertation, while studying at CUArch, explored the infinite potentials of architecture and its common meaning. The Essence of Architecture, ultimately, uncovered a manifesto that declared a clear overarching goal of eliminating the modern shell and delivering spaces that ask questions and reveal answers. The thesis research that was developed gave him an understanding of the influence architecture has over our environments, not just currently, but throughout history.
