Dear Kumuamba Mars,
Take my Greetings. Your project has deep significance regarding African culture.
Your design approach is quite okay. Concept of your project is contemporary and relevant to the context. Concept has also a relevant goal for this kind of project.
I think your effort to uphold the African Architecture and Culture to exterior world is commendable. Use of material and construction technique is relevant for your culture. Derivation and articulation of from is not bad.
* As per my opinion, if you consider some more features then it would me more sustainable. You now culture always tried to communicate with native and non-native people. It has the character to be learned, shared, symbolic, integrated, and dynamic.
As your concept fosters to promote and exchange the African culture to the whole world so I think some CULTURAL ACTIVITY GENERATED OUTDOOR SPACE could be incorporated in your complex.
* You may create some African cultural spaces at the point of your created CROSSROAD. In your submitted design all your cultural activities are introverted.
* If you add some outer activity then it could be more communicative to visitor as well it will uphold your tendency to promote your culture to visitors and others.
* More over as your entry plaza is harder in its texture. In consideration with your local climate the entry and sub entry plaza has to be added MORE GREENARY.
Thanks. Hope for the best in your upcoming career journey.
