project description:
Partnering with UNIFI (www.unifiinc.org), we look to design for the village of Umueze, Nigeria a safe and functional primary schoolhouse. The new building is to replace an existing schoolhouse that has become old and dilapidated, requiring a disproportionate amount of resources and maintenance. The schoolhouse is seen as the center of growth within the village. It is not only a place for children to learn, but a gathering place for the students to populate and create connections that strengthen the community as a whole.
