The role of the architect is arguably the most critical for mankind in ensuring an environment appropriate to our sustainable future on this planet. The social and scientific changes that occur rapidly over time must be carefully tracked and responded to by the architect, as the need for shelter and safe environments are essentials for all to share as a basis for humanity.

MY ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
Contemporary architecture experiments with plenty of different styles, so you can even come across interesting blend of traditional and futuristic elements all contained in one building. We are living the 4th Industrial Revolution and the things are in movement this is a kind of challenge we need pay attention.
Ar. Junaid Ahmed Khan - LEED AP ID+C - Int'l. Assoc. AIA
My Architectural Design focus mainly tends towards two major areas;
1. Research and practice in computational and parametric design. I'm currently experimenting and research in the most advanced parametric design tools while aiming to integrate these tools with important architectural design aspects such as shape and topology optimization, environmental and structural analysis.
2. Advanced Sustainable Design, for this reason I've been accredited as Pakistan's first LEED AP in Interior Design + Construction. My focus in this area is majorly on the latest construction technology and source material reduction in buildings.
