PROGRAM: This project addresses the challenge of providing a new learning complex (library, administration and classrooms) and a new, 80-bed girls’ dormitory on an aging campus of a secondary school in a rural region of Nigeria. Faced with a local vernacular that causes more problems than provides solutions, these designs harness local construction techniques and puts them together into a new visual vocabulary for a progressive learning environment. The aim is to not only house the necessary programs that contribute to the community of the students, but to also emphasize the role of education and empower the students occupying the space.
