Ahmad Alkattan

Ahmad AlKattan is a Syrian architect and concept designer based in Dubai, where he runs Kattan Design, a design research studio working across architecture, masterplanning, product design, art, objects and installations, with AI-enabled workflows developed for developers and architecture firms.

The portfolio moves between towers, masterplans, villas, facade design, fountains, installations and limited-edition furniture such as the Monoform and Morphcode collections; the studio works through a global collaborative network and a subscription-based model for design services. AlKattan holds a Master’s in renewable energy engineering, and his Designest project — a 3D-printed outdoor shelter conceived for people and birds — was developed for Dubai’s Urban Commissions programme.
