Farouque
Abdela Design, Zanzibar:
We had the good fortune to meet Farouque Abdela (above
center) and his creative associates at the Zanzibar Beach
Resort during the Africa Travel Association
Cultural-Ecotourism Symposium last December. We were
impressed on sight and are preparing a profile on his
designs for one or more of our magazine issues underway.
Here's a brief item from the Abdela Design website
