Hassan Fathy Archive

A Tribute to Architectural Stewardship
Deepest gratitude to the distinguished Egyptian Architect, Essam Safi El-Din, for his generous donation of the legendary Hassan Fathy’s archive to Galala University.
By entrusting this invaluable heritage to an academic institution, Arch. Essam ensures that Fathy’s philosophy of “Architecture for the Poor” and his unique vernacular style will continue to inspire and educate future generations of architects. This is more than a donation; it is a profound act of cultural preservation
