AD : YOUR LATEST HOUSING PROJECT CLEO COUNTY HAS BEEN ENVISIONED AS A GREEN OASIS . TELL US SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROJECT .
VISHAL & VINEETA : The project is inspired by both the functional and aesthetic aspects of ancient Egyptian architecture by taking the essence of the magnitude of the Egyptian pyramid to a human scale and translating it into design . The masterplan is developed around the concept of amalgamated integration with the complex planned as a blend of courtyards with ample light and ventilation , borrowing from the built heritage of Egypt . The façade is developed in an Ivory beige shade ( the colour of sun-baked mudbrick ), while also incorporating contemporary architecture in the façade using clean lines and fins with texture and screens to enhance the aesthetics .
