The chapel’s original drawings which were discovered in the school’s archive belongs to one of the most prestigious Egyptian architects, Antoine Selim Nahas, who remained obscure for years due to his shy, private nature and the loss of his archives.
Scanned and processed from the archives of College De La Salle, the original set of drawings highlights a thorough and rigorous design process. The visible traces of hand-drawn amendments and modifications reveal the ongoing ambition of both the architects and the school to achieve the best design decisions.
