One, or maybe even two, in my high school and at the beginning of my college life, I took a piece of paper and started drawing things that used to attract me to design big buildings. This might sound cheesy, but instead of drawing a village home- the first drawing I also did- sketching big houses. And later on, while studying Architecture, I found a deep relationship between these sketches and human lives, which made me more serious about Architecture.

From the beginning of my architectural studies, my dream was to have a consultancy firm. After graduating, I worked in a consultancy firm for a few years and then decided to follow my dream and start my own firm, Matreek, in 2009.

Most of our work is for sustainable architecture. Our continuous effort is to work on passive architecture to create a soothing indoor environmental quality to live or work. So my goal is to achieve sustainability by practicing passive architecture.
