Ayat Hamide

My name is Ayat Hamide, and I’m an architectural designer driven by curiosity, critical inquiry, and the pursuit of meaningful, transformative design. I recently earned my Master of Architecture from Pratt Institute, building on dual degrees in Civil Engineering and Architectural Engineering.

Architecture, to me, is more than a discipline—it’s a way of seeing, questioning, and reshaping the world. My engineering background provides a rigorous foundation rooted in precision and systems thinking, while my design practice expands that foundation into realms of theory, speculation, and the social dynamics of space. I believe architecture is never neutral—it holds the power to shape communities, challenge conventions, and imagine new futures.

My work sits at the intersection of technology, urbanism, and human experience, asking how we live, move, and connect in a constantly shifting world. Whether through built interventions, speculative design, or digital experimentation, I approach architecture as a conversation—between form and fluidity, stillness and motion, the individual and the collective.
