Taha Ammar, Textured
An app does not always need to feel like an "app". Inspired by architectural blueprint drawings, this concept brings the textured paper and pencil feel to the phones. This project involved designing several apps that follow the same core theme. In this case, a weather app and a timer app. 2 starkly different yet staple concept apps that every phone user has.

The textured feel goes beyond what looks like a paper. The shading, the rough drawings, the jaggered lines, are all meant to make the user feel like they are holding onto an odd piece of paper. A change amidst the minimalist designed apps. Various elements were reused across other weather elements for consistency and ease of use. All of these were drawn in figma and with use of plugin “rough”
Taha Ammar, Textured: In the details
Not everyone wants to see the details right away. There is a time for the quick check, and when you want to see the details, a curtain can reveal the secrets hidden behind it.
Taha Ammar, Roya Vision
"Roya" from the Arabic "vision".
“Roya” is a seamless health companion app paired with smart contact lenses that see and automatically track your eating habits, offering real insights into your nutrition and progress.
Roya addresses the need for monitoring eating habits but, especially for those burdened by manual tracking. People want to make healthier choices; to lose weight, to achieve a certain physique, but in real life they often eat complex meals, share food with others, which makes logging food and keeping track of portions too time-consuming, inconsistent, or socially uncomfortable. Roya is health tracking that fits real life instead of interrupting it
Taha Ammar, Roya Vision: The visual appeal
"Roya" is designed for function. It is intended to be paired with Meta glasses; seamless, contactless, calorie tracking, for even the most complex dish. And yet it offers an app that can work standalone, giving users the familiarity they are accustomed to in traditional calorie tracking. It is colourful, vibrant, and encouraging, as one should feel on their health and fitness journey.
Taha Ammar, Fagus Factory: Alfeld
Inviting tourists to a city may not entail expensive attractions or luxurious activities. In the case of Alfeld, Germany, the attraction is the architecture itself. Inspired by the Bauhaus movement of the early 20th century, Alfeld is home to one of the biggest architectural icons of that era: the Fagus Works Factory.
A key feature of this work is that it was made with shades of only 2 colours: red and blue. The asymmetry, vibrant colours and sharp geometry are what defines the work as Bauhaus style.
This work was designed as an invitation for tourists seeking not just the popular places, but the culturally diverse as well.
