BUILDING HISTORY
Located at 5 El Fadl Street, behind El Abd Patisserie, Consoleya building exemplifies the Neo-Baroque style marked by refined details and elegant simplicity.
In 1925, the consulate was moved from Galal Street in El Azbakeya to its current site, with the French government commissioning architect Paul Conan Pasteur to design the new three-storey building, which includes a spacious garage and an elegant rooftop.
Over the decades, the building hosted institutional, social, cultural, artistic, and entrepreneurial events. Its renowned banquet hall became a venue for major film and advertising industry gatherings and a setting for iconic photo shoots by both local and international photographers.


Restoration Process: Adaptive Reuse Model
In 2014, Al Ismaelia for Real Estate Investment acquired the building and in 2016, they started the restoration process. In 2020, the company launched Consoleya, a multi-use co-working hub equipped to serve the needs of Egypt’s growing community of entrepreneurs.
