What happens when centuries-old stone architecture meets the warmth and sustainability of wood?

During our time in Egypt, we had the opportunity to sit down with leading architects in Cairo and beyond, connect with local builders and designers, and have honest conversations with Egyptians about where their cities, spaces, and communities are headed. One theme kept rising to the surface: a growing interest in using more wood in construction rather than relying solely on stone and cement.

In this podcast, we share behind-the-scenes conversations from our trip to Egypt, including discussions around incorporating natural wood materials into modern and historic spaces, the architectural challenges and opportunities unique to the region, and why Missouri hardwoods have captured the attention of designers looking for durability, beauty, and sustainability.

We do not know exactly where this journey will lead, but we are excited to be part of this chapter as Egypt explores new ways to build, restore, and reimagine its future. From cultural exchange to material innovation, this trip opened the door to meaningful conversations about architecture, craftsmanship, and the role wood can play in shaping spaces that last.

If you are interested in architecture, global design trends, sustainable building materials, hardwood construction, or the future of wood in modern architecture, this conversation offers a unique perspective from the heart of Egypt.
