GLA was one of two landscape architectural firms to exhibit. The other was from Korea. The booth was designed by Ashley Iannuccilli, LA, of GLA’s US office and Norhan Fawzi, Senior Landscape Designer of GLA’s Cairo office. The booth featured a mural showing one of GLA’s premier projects and a large flat screen TV running a continuous loop of GLA’s projects both in Egypt and the US.
