About Faculty Architecture Arxitektura maktabi
Faculty Architecture — Ruanda poytaxti Kigalida joylashgan, 5 600 kvadrat metrlik maydonda 600 talabaga mo'ljallangan arxitektura maktabidir. Loyiha ikki qavatli oddiy hajmdan boshlanadi. Hajm qarama-qarshi tomonlardan ajratilib, markazda talabalar uchun ochiq maydon hosil qiluvchi bo'shliq yaratiladi. Tashqi qobiq uchun tosh, ichki qismlar uchun esa tabiiy rangli beton ishlatilgan. Kichik derazalar tashqariga qaragan bo'lsa, ichkariga qaragan katta derazalar tom qanotlari bilan soyalangan. Kesilgan yuqori qismlar kunduzgi yorug'likni ichkariga olib kiradi va shamollatishni yaxshilaydi.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The firm responded to an international call for tender launched in March 2012 by the government of Rwanda for the design of a new architecture school to accommodate 600 students on a 5,600 sq.m. site not far from the existing faculty. For this project we began with a simple form on two levels which we distorted in the same way tectonic forces distort land masses: we pulled on opposite sides, making a gap in the centre that would form the outside area for the students.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The project does 5 600 square metres
- Tags
- Rwanda, school, architecture, Kigali
- Production Technology
- The building uses two simple materials commonly found in the region: stone for the exterior envelope; and self-coloured concrete for the interior. The building has small outward-facing windows and large inward-facing windows protected from the sun by roof overhangs.
- Design Challenge
- The difficulty of the project was to manage it from France, with a relay on site and to use only local materials.
- Research
- The firm opted for a highly architectural project using complex forms, driven by both pedagogical and environmental concerns, halfway between traditional architecture and contemporary design. This is a simple, didactic building designed to train the future architects of a developing African country whose population is set to double by 2050.
- Inspiration
- The building uses two simple materials commonly found in the region: stone for the exterior envelope; and self-coloured concrete for the interior. The building has small outward-facing windows and large inward-facing windows protected from the sun by roof overhangs. The upper section of the pyramids is truncated in order to bring in natural light and optimise ventilation.
- Project Duration
- Kigali at Rwanda
2017 to 2018 - Operation Flow
