AFRICAN HERITAGE + MODERN ARCHITECTURE. I’ve seen secondhand the impact of incorporating traditional techniques and materials into contemporary design. There's an undeniable charm and wisdom in drawing design inspiration from our culture in the design of our urban environment and spaces. Technological advancements and globalization with all its benefits, carry a strong inclination to overshadow traditional values. Afrocentric design and architecture isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about sustainability, community, and cultural heritage. We can integrate these timeless principles into a language of modern African architecture. AFROCENTRICISM IN ARCHITECTURE!!! that's what this is called. #Africa #SustainableArchitecture #CulturalHeritage #ArchitecturalDesign #TraditionalTechniques #LocalMaterials #architect #SustainablePractices #ArchitectureCommunity Credits: ParametricArchitecture Pinterest Page

Exploring the relationship between humans and their environments through architectural lenses : Architectural design serves both the natural man (Biophilic man) and the cultural man (Topophilic man). The natural man connects deeply with the physical world, embracing organic, raw elements that reflect our innate relationship with nature. In contrast, the cultural man thrives in environments shaped by human history, social interactions, and collective memory. Designing spaces that balance these two human aspects allows us to create environments that are both intuitively comforting and rich with cultural meaning. #Architecture #DesignThinking #NatureAndCulture #BiophilicDesign #Topophilia #Architecture #SustainableDesign

On World Architecture Day, we ponder the theme "Empowering the next generation to participate in urban design". Let's imagine our cities as living canvases, where each building tells a story. Emerging talents are not just sketching the future; they're also tasked with reviving the colours of our architectural treasures. To achieve this, they employ a form of invisible architecture, where subtle interventions highlight the beauty of our heritage while aligning it with contemporary requirements.🏙️✨ 🔍 Curious to see how innovation fuels Lemay's heritage projects?

Lighting that doest overwelm the space, another great example of Facade lighting.

Preserving historic architecture goes beyond simply maintaining structures—it’s about honoring the original vision that brought these spaces to life. By looking back to the design intent, we gain insight into the architect’s purpose, the era’s style, and the cultural influences that shaped each building. This approach ensures that preservation is not just a physical act but a respectful continuity of history, aesthetics, and function. Through careful restoration and mindful adaptation, we can safeguard architectural heritage for future generations to experience and appreciate.
