Editor's Note
For several millenniums, Egyptians have lead the Architecture of the whole world, this bright
history actually puts a load on our shoulders as contemporary Egyptian Architects and planners, if we really want
to be proud of our ancestors, we have to do a positive step to regain the lead, or at least stop being lagging
behind the whole world!
For more than two centuries now, we have been just importing Architectural ideas and technologies
from the west (as we have been doing in all aspects of our life), and for no more than 50 years we began to explore
our Architectural heritage to find a new source to learn. The step forward, which should be taken now, is to digest
all resources of knowledge, and to introduce to the world a new Contemporary Egyptian Architecture:
OUR ARCHITECTURE!
This will not be done by a single person, it needs the cooperation of hundreds of minds
and hands, may be a whole generation of Architects and Intellectuals have to contribute to such a process till
we find a solid product.
That's why this site has been created.
To provide a link and an Information source to everybody who wants to contribute, and
to open a gate to publish ideas and discuss them with others. It is open for any contribution, any Architect who
wants to publish his work: projects, articles, papers or thesis, is welcome. It's also open for any news, or announcements
about conferences, seminars, competitions, expositions or new products.
We welcome anyone want to share us, or want to publish his work in the site, just
send us an email to know the way of publishing your works, papers, articles, ...etc.
