Islam Elsayed

Established in 2017 by Islam Farrag, Core Architects,
a design & build firm was a rising star among the architecture firms
in Kuwait at the time. With a multimillion-Kuwaiti Dinar project in
one of the most affluent neighborhoods in Kuwait City, the firm
was able to climb its way up.
In early 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the city went into
lockdown, and many businesses struggled to survive. Core was no
exception. The studio faced a significant challenge as
projects were put on hold, clients canceled contracts, and the
team had to adapt to remote work.
Islam refused to let his dreams crumble. He quickly gathered the
team together, albeit virtually, and brainstormed ideas to keep the
studio afloat during these uncertain times.
