Massar — Campus Navigation
A clearer way to class.
Finding a classroom should not be the hardest part of getting to it. Massar grew from a practical student need into a bilingual navigation platform.
The decision
Connect classroom search, interactive maps and walking guides in one bilingual website.
The evidence
2,500+ students reached by the original Telegram service; calculated historical metrics.

01 / Start with the problem
A room code is not
a set of directions.
For new engineering students, knowing a classroom number did not necessarily mean knowing the building, entrance, floor or corridor that would get them there.
The first version addressed that gap with room-specific walking-guide videos on Telegram. It was a direct, low-friction way to answer a recurring student question.
02 / How the idea evolved
A simple service
Telegram brought room-specific walking videos together.
A feedback loop
Students described difficult room searches and Telegram-only access.
A better interface
A bilingual website connected search, maps, routes and videos.
03 / Feedback into decisions
Listen to the friction.
Design the next action.
A simpler way to find a room
Search and direct map selection keep the chosen destination synchronized.
Directions from a familiar starting point
Main and Back Entrance choices generate the appropriate route.
Clarity between floors
Guided staircase stages keep Ground Floor journeys understandable while floor views remain available.
More than a line on a map
On-demand walking videos provide a second way to understand the journey.
04 / The details are the product
Useful in the hallway.
Not just on a desktop.
Arabic & English
RTL and LTR layouts with clear room codes, labels and navigation controls.
Mobile first
Compact map controls, contextual route actions and Home Screen installation guidance.
A continuing conversation
Problem reporting gives students a way to flag an issue. Analytics respect the consent choice.
The takeaway
Ownership means
following the problem.
Massar was not a one-time interface exercise. The useful work was noticing a need, launching a practical response, listening to students, and improving the experience without losing the information they relied on.
