Brief Bio

Lecturer at the University of Southern Punjab, Multan with a growing academic foundation in architectural education. My teaching spans architectural design, architectural history, and architectural philosophy, where he emphasizes clarity of concepts and contextual understanding. My research interests include conservation, architectural precedents, green buildings, and sustainable architecture, reflecting a focus on environmentally responsive and historically grounded design approaches. I have been recognized through multiple design project wins and am currently developing research work for publication. At the USP, I adopt a practice‐oriented teaching methodology, integrating real‐life examples, critical thinking, and hands‐on learning to bridge theory with design application.
