Smart Wooden Tower

Location:Lagos, Nigeria

Architect:Hermann Kamte & Associates

The design was submitted as part of the city above the city competition which is an international initiative created by metsa wood, which challenges architects and designers to explore alternative uses of wood in the urban context. The proposed structure would be built on the roof of Abebe court and is designed to be the only one of its kind in this country, driven by smart and sustainable architecture. The tower is proposed to rise above the town, stretching to cross the limit of local wooden construction. The building will be composed of mixed residential spaces designed around a central core. The existing and proposed structures will be separated by sky gardens and amenities. The sky garden will provide a new natural footprint face to the historic centre dominated by ceramic, concrete and asphalt.The incorporation of greenery around each floor is said to contribute to creating fresh air flow and keeping a constant micro-climate.
