HOME FURNITURE

Classi is a home furniture brand in Nasr City, Cairo, located on Makram Ebeid, one of the area’sactive commercial streets.Alep developed the brand identity and showroom experience to reflect a simple idea: furnitureshould not only be displayed, but felt as part of a lived home. The identity, interior direction, façade,and visual applications were designed to create a sense of comfort, trust, and quiet refinement.The result is a brand experience that feels warm, accessible, and elevated — helping customersimagine furniture not as separate pieces, but as part of a complete living environment.

Design Narrative

The design approach was built around the feeling of home.Soft materials, warm wood, calm lighting, and neutral tones create an atmosphere that feels welcomingwithout becoming overly decorative. The space was designed to slow the customer down, allowing eachfurniture piece to be experienced in a more natural and comfortable setting.Rather than treating the showroom as a traditional retail display, Alep shaped it as a sequence of livingmoments — where seating areas, bedrooms, materials, lighting, and brand details work together tocommunicate the lifestyle behind Classi.

Furniturepieces are presented within composed settings, helping customers understand scale, atmosphere,and how each item could live inside a real home.

The façade gives Classi a warm andvisible presence on Makram Ebeid,using light, wood, and clear signage tocreate a refined street-facing identity.
