Wael Salah Fahmi

Wael Fahmi was trained as an architect at Cairo University and received his PhD in Planning and Landscape from the University of Manchester (UK). He teaches architecture and urban design as an Associate Professor of Urbanism at the Architecture Department- Helwan University in Cairo. Through his studio Urban Design Experimental Research Studio (UDERS), he explores deconstructive experimentation within urban space , postmodern spatiality and representation of city imaging employing narratives, digital photo imaging, video stills and architectural diagrams. UDERS conceptualises the deconstruction of architectural discourse as a postmodern strategy within a virtual design incubator for experimentation with  hybrid interfaces of urban games, images, signs and simulacra , and with interactive spatial diagrams  which challenge institutionalised construction of spatiality .
