'Izbat al-Kallini
Samalut, Egypt

"Several similarities between the plan of this villa and that of the preliminary design for the Nasr House, which preceded it, indicate that the architect reworked certain parts of the plan, such as the public entry sequence and family area, to make this one of the best-resolved designs of his career. Like the first Nasr House scheme, this also has an accentuated sense of vertical scale." (construction not verified)
