As is usual with major national projects in Egypt, especially in the fields of transportation, infrastructure, and other giant projects, ECG relied on showing the luxury and size of the project by adding clear Pharaonic touches.

Especially in the treatments of the facades and entrances of the stations and ticket booking halls, using Pharaonic themes that give an impression of luxury and awe

To ensure the unity of design composition between the various project components, the design focused on highlighting the Pharaonic influence on the design of all stations

Pharaonic temples, as the project relied on showing the element of strength through the massiveness of the blocks, their prominence, and the sharp, straight lines to show the clarity of the blocks

The architectural treatments clearly show the design team's influence by Pharaonic architectural elements in terms of the massiveness of the buildings, their height, and the spaciousness of the entrances. Glass was also used as a natural material in the facade of the buildings to add a modern touch
