My conversation with Alchemy’s Karim Mekhtigian & Mohamed Fares
This episode is brought to you by EFG Hermes One, your one app for investing in more than 35 stock markets worldwide.
This week, I’m sitting down with Karim Mekhtigian and Mohamed Fares, two of the visionary architects behind Cairo’s premier design firm, Alchemy, alongside Emy Hussein. Together, they have spent years shaping the architectural landscape in Egypt, setting new standards of quality, style and craftsmanship.
In the first of two episodes, we talk about how they each came to architecture and design, and then joined forces to create a partnership that spans two decades.
Our conversation took place at Tamara Haus, a new destination by Alchemy Experience, in the heart of Downtown Cairo.
On part two next week, Karim & Fares tell me about their design philosophy, and how they built a brand that became a movement.
