Our architects have been contacted and hired to develop a residential building in Luanda, Angola. We developed a building with a modular structure and an low budget construction that allowed us a quick, cheap and effective cooling. Angola grows and we, as architects, believe that architectural solutions are needed not to transform Luanda into an amusement park but, on the contrary, to build a modern architecture city, proud of its identity.

The architectural project of a residential condominium
We developed a gated condominium with a modular and economical structure that allows for quick, cheap and thermally efficient construction. Therefore, the building we developed is completely modular as it allows the prefabrication of many of the building’s elements. Therefore, construction is faster. At the same time, local labor is involved in the remaining work, making construction cheaper.
The project is sober, elegant and transparent. In other words, we took advantage of views over the bay. There is also a big focus on shaded outdoor spaces, as the climate is exceptional.
In short, Angola is growing and as architects we consider that there is an urgent need for architectural solutions that do not transform it into an amusement park, but rather into a modern country proud of its identity.
