Collaboration:
Goethe Institute Alexandria,
Centre for the Modernisation of Industry, Institution Amici die Franco Basaglia, Graeco-Roman Museum, Alexandria
Location:

Details:
The Palmobilia project of the Goethe-Institut Alexandria is an ecological project that combines sustainable furniture design and training to qualify craftspeople.
During this time, I gave a hands-on workshop on circular design. Creative, sustainable designs were created by Egyptian designers and made from palm tree fronds by local producers during the workshop. Based on their long-established knowledge of craftsmanship, sustainable and affordable pieces of furniture were produced.
