HTW Chur visits Contrast Studio


A group of 30 students from the HTW Chur in Switzerland visited Contrast Studio last week with their professors Daniel Walser and Placido Perez. They were given a quick brief of our studio space and previous projects by studio partner Kareem Nabil. Then discussions went on between the swiss students and our own team.

Many thanks to the HTW Chur studio and to our own studio team (Marwa, Nermeen, Meral & Karim) for organizing this event.
