Egypt Post Fares Village
As part of Egypt's vision 2030 framework and Egypt Post's sustainable transformation and community involvement, ECOnsult was commissioned to design the first Egypt Post sustainable post office.

Using locally sourced materials, passive design, and vernacular strategies, the building delivers a high-quality interior environment and adequate thermal insulation, providing quality interior spaces for employees and customers.
