MACDELLA ACADEMY PRO BONO

Prev.: LEGEND LOFT

Next: AIDA HAIR SALON

CONCEPT: SUSTAINABLE VILLAGE

Play

We have pro bono designed the MCF Academy to support the great efforts of Macdella Cooper of the Macdella Cooper Foundation to house, feed and educate 200 orphans.

The Academy has a library, staff rooms, a dining hall, 2 academic buildings, 2 dormitories and a staff building. The buildings are built from local materials such as perforated concrete blocks and bamboo woven walls. The structures are designed to have natural ventilation and the roofs will collect rainwater for showers and toilets. Wells and water towers are constructed to provide a good reservoir. Solar panels and windmills provide alternate sources of energy for lighting and the necessary refrigeration.
