- The production/realization technology for the Cadence project in Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis, involved a modular system with approximately 5x5 meter units forming the main framework for various activities.

- Défi de Conception
- The most challenging aspect of the Cadence Art Center project was reconciling the dichotomy between urban functionality and natural integration. The create a multifunctional cultural center necessitated a profound understanding of the island's identity and community needs. Internal factors, such as historical and social perspectives, underscored the importance of aligning with local culture and fostering a sense of belonging. External factors, including legal considerations and technological limitations, added complexity to the design process.
- Recherche
- The research conducted for the Cadence Art Center in Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis, transitioned from a hotel concept to a multi-purpose cultural hub through qualitative design research. Ethnographic methods, interviews, and surveys revealed the island's rich cultural heritage, environmental challenges, and community aspirations. Engaging diverse stakeholders informed design decisions to integrate with nature, promote social cohesion, and celebrate local identity. This shift resulted in the Cadence Art Center becoming a symbol of community pride, revitalizing tourism, and fostering economic growth through the promotion of local art and heritage.
- Inspiration
