New Episode: In Design With: Ahmed Bukhash
Watch the latest episode of In Design With.
From earning his Master’s in Architecture on a prestigious scholarship in Kyoto to shaping the future of Dubai’s urban fabric through pivotal roles (he currently serves as the Director of Urban Planning at Dubai Development Authority), Ahmed brings a unique perspective to design. As the founder of ARCHIDENTITY, he champions architecture that reflects cultural context while embracing modern expression. Recently Ahmad has also been part of the ‘Pillars of Arish’ symposium at this year’s Osaka Expo and is one of 9 judges selected by the Bureau International des Expositions as a jury member to pick the best pavillions at the expo. We speak to him about the parallels in the Japanese and Emirati ways of architecture, his connection to Japan, being one of the only firms to design the pavillions at Expo2020 and his journey.
