From Engineering to Design to Photography 

Photography was not part of his original career plan. He once believed he would become an engineer, but life led him toward media and graphic design instead. Seeking broader horizons, he pursued his studies abroad and worked in museums, where he developed a deeper appreciation for culture and history.

A Lens that Explores the City

At the start of his journey, Hussain was more drawn to photographing people than buildings. Over time, he began to notice the architectural details surrounding him, searching for patterns and symmetry that told their own stories. What began as curiosity turned into a documentary project.

Returning to Abu Dhabi, it took him two years before capturing his first image. He needed time to see his city differently, to reshape his perspective. Eventually, he found his unique approach, using photography to highlight architectural harmony, transforming buildings into geometric compositions that reflect the spirit of the city.
