Codextober 2025 - Day 27 : Sanctuary

As an architect, when I hear the word sanctuary, a few other words come to my mind. First, a safe architecture, a place where you feel peace and security and second, a sacred architecture, a place like a temple. That’s why I drew “Ishaq’s home”. You know, in Islam, one’s home is both a place for rest and for worship. While I was working on this piece, I felt as if I were designing a home for another architect; with all the limitations and beauties of the medieval ages.

Yes, I was imagining what Basim’s childhood home might have looked like, considering the architecture, culture and traditions of that time and region. Basim never mentioned his mother but he said that his father was an architect who built the Great Mosque of Samarra, yet the project was credited to someone else and his father died in poverty. From that, I assumed that maybe his father had a fondness for spiral staircases around the structure; so I designed one for him!

And when the first images of the new dlc (valley of memory) were revealed, I said it must be related to his father and later, when the details came out, I was right! I was so excited and honestly, I still am! Anyways, we’re all eagerly waiting for November 18th!!!

Codextober 2025 - Day 26 : Ancient

Ancient. I believe that knowledge preserved in books lasts longer. Written knowledge is more helpful than oral tradition. From the first clay tablets to the glowing screens we hold today, the act of writing has always walked beside humanity. I imagine that even in Basim’s time, many books were already ancient and since he loved them dearly, as always, I drew this piece in his honor.

Live Review: Grief Ritual, Calligram, Harrowed, and Worn Out at The Black Heart, London (06/02/25)

Well now, that was pretty damn good, wasn’t it? A four-band bill of noisy and heavy music, topped by Grief Ritual, who recently released their outstanding debut album, ‘Collapse’ via Church Road Records.

Well now, that was pretty damn good, wasn’t it?

A four-band bill of noisy and heavy music, topped by Grief Ritual, who recently released their outstanding debut album, ‘Collapse’ via Church Road Records. A four-band bill that has drawn a sizeable crowd ensuring the Black Heart is a hell of a lot warmer inside than it is outside. Although I am absolutely baffled how a show of this calibre hasn’t…

Harrow the Ninth calligram—does this count as fanart?

A framed calligram made in black ink fountainpen, in a gothic-inspired handwriting, representing the first paragraph of chapter 36 of Harrow the Ninth in the shape of a skull.ALT


Ever since I read the first paragraph of chapter 36 of Harrow the Ninth, I knew I had to do something with it. Finally got my personal gothic-like handwriting to a place I liked so I figured it was time.

Some making-of stuff under the cut.
