Pratt Institute
This project comes from the unique collaboration between Fourah Bay College School of Architecture in Freetown, Sierra Leon and Pratt Institute, School of Design in Brooklyn, New York. The project borns from the objective of creating low-cost social housing for Equatorial Territories, securing optimal standards of safety, affordability, and durability. My contribution has been focused on the project graphic identity, communication channels and visual design.
Thus, situated in the vibrant communities of Freetown, Sierra Leone, the project leverages local traditions and craftsmanship, incorporating passive cooling, electricity generation, and flexible living spaces. Divided into research, design, prototyping, and construction phases, the journey from idea to implementation is fully documented and shared. The open dialogue with experts and mentors, Zoom workshops, and the open-source sharing of findings on our website democratise the design process, inviting global use and adaptation.
