EGYPTIAN UNIVERSITY FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
NEW ADMINISTRATIVE CAPITAL, EGYPT
The project links the university to the dorms by a clear axe and the heart of the university linked to the astronomical observatory, which overlooks the social club.
The concept of the university is inspired by the idea of the Nucleus and the Stars, in which the Pharaohs were interested in astronomy regarding the planning of their buildings such as the Pyramids and the other temples.

The design plan of the project assembles what the ancient Egyptian architects did in designs; to simplify the materials and use Pharaonic modules in the facades.
Since the beginning of the time, Egypt is the cradle of history and the source of civilization and science, where the ancient Egyptian people taught the world the construction strategies and how to build.
This project is to reformulate the terms and theories of Pharaonic architectue in their contemporary form and not copying their strategies.
The project’s idea is to build an educational environment for its student, which allows them to exchange information and cultures through public spaces and it’s hierarchy from one department to the whole sections, between colleges and each other and the university in general
