Africa Institute by Adjaye Associates, Sharjah, UAE |
|
Adjaye Associates has unveiled the design of The Africa Institute, the first center of its kind dedicated to the advanced study and research of Africa and the African diaspora living in the Arab world. The red-hued architecture is composed of five volumes varying between four and seven storeys. The volumes are assembled next to each other with voids in between them, forming a duality of enclosed spaces and central openings. The structure's design and typology are inspired the Gulf, Timbuktu, and Hausa architecture where solid façades engulf an internal courtyard and the ground floor creates a transition between the city and the architecture. |
