Invited as an Expert Panelist for the Ghana Green Building Summit

Panel: Is a Green Indigenous Architecture Attainable? At The 3rd Ghana Green Building Summit

Panel Synopsis:

One of the striking cultural elements of many a society is their building architecture; a personality carved deliberately with indigenous material, colour, motifs and other symbolic accents. Until the influence of western design, indigenous design leveraged the immediate natural environment to provide quality indoor air, cooling and other functional spaces. In our quest for healthier and functional spaces, we re-open this much need conversation on indigenous architecture.
