of a commercial ground floor and residential units
above the project seeks to respond to the diversity of
requirements in a comprehensive urban
development,site conditions,social constraints and
local authority requirements to achieve a suitabe
sustainable design

street character in an effort to add to the existing
historical and rban qualities that creat the strong
identity of swahili architecture

into small blocks to capture the street and block
pattern of the streets, The project has commercial
spaces on the ground floor and apartment units on the
other floors each with a balcony with view into the
street extending the street vibrance into the individual
units and mainting the spirit and social fabric of the
street
