Design Challenge
Our challenge in this project was to create a design that beautifully blends the client's personality with all pieces of art and objects that she has acquired from travels over time.
Project Duration
The project started in June 2021 and finished in June 2022 in Cairo, Egypt.
Research
The first stages consisted of meetings and site visits to comprehend the owner lifestyle and requirements. The client brief gave the vision of creating a home around European style and cosmopolitan historical homes in Cairo. The most relevant place to this style was the historical palace of princess Aisha Fahmy in Cairo. The client was given pre-concepts and upon approval, Hoda Lasheen Design Studio started the development phase followed by delivering the construction documents and the Bill of Quantities. Hoda Lasheen Design Studio also supervised during the construction phase.
Inspiration
Designed in a beautiful classical European style, this home was inspired by historical palace of princess Aisha Fahmy located by Nile river bank in Cairo. The design had an ambiance that is enriched with the utilization of colorful textiles with various patterns. Classic cornices, silk wall panels, wall paintings and wooden flooring all resulted in an amazing fusion of design that makes that home a museum of art.
