The question of eco-friendly architecture and sustainable development has been at the center of academic debate, design interventions, and public policies in cities around the world over the past two decades.

In Egypt, these questions have been addressed in multiple venues. In parallel, the urban development scene has witnessed the emergence of eco-friendly initiatives, such as green rooftops, and the introduction of industries experimenting with local solutions to these global concerns.

Ecohouse is an installation and exhibition constructed by CLUSTER in Azhar Park as part of the first Egypt Urban Forum, 2015. It sought to raise awareness about the range of innovative and affordable eco-friendly design solutions for Egypt’s housing market.
