HIGH RISE CONDOMINIUM
January 2021 | Residential Architecture | 4TH Academic Year Project
The building incorporates a clearly defined central core and circulation lobbies with proper zoning of activities in and around the site. In the tropics one of the major design problem is zoning and natural ventiilation which the design solved via proper zoning. The design made use of the Tri-Modular concept which is best described as the three arm concept. It helps in merging the different part of the building into a central core, this ensure increased strenght and durabilty of the stuctural components. The concept also allows for proper movement of air around the building and into the interior spaces. Protected balconies were also introduced as well as green roof.
Description:
The “Twice as Tall” Tower is a proposed 10 floors high-rise structure that houses units of 2 bedroom apartments and 3 bedroom apartments located at the strategic Airport Road, Enugu. The building was limited to 10 floors due to its proximity to an airport. The aim of the design project is the provide a conducive living enviroment that meets the 21st century human needs, also to design a sustainable and energy efficient building which provides a comfortable, healthy living while cordinating several parts and building systems and make them function as a whole.

The estate layout adopted all the principles of new urbanism and ensure its implementation in the siting and placement of buildings.
4TH Academic Year Project
The idea is to ensure inclusivity while also creating and enviromentally friendly urban area for the masses
Special attention was also given to technical requirements such as building bye-laws, waste disposal, water systems, power generation, structural elements, construction materials and enviromental requirement.

URBANOTECTURE
The Urbanotecture Concept explains the main design idea adopted in the estate planning, the NEW URBANISM concept. Urbanotecture lays emphasis on the use of design measure to shape the lives of people and their urban enviroment.
Site Layout concepts such as the P-Loop, Cul-de-sac and grid system facilitates the new urbanism principle.

BILLIONAIRE’S RESIDENCE
Resolution of Masses and articulation of spaces
The design concept adopted made use of the site concept to generated a building mass. The building mass were resoluted to created smaller masses and bigger masses interconnected at different levels where the smaller masses are being used to create an intermediary between the spaces.
Further development helped in the articulation of spaces within the building mass, with the proper configuration of the smaller fragmented masses. The smaller masses were arranged to form a whole with gives rise to the final form.
Description:
The proposed Billionaire’s Residence is a proposed residential apartment for a Billionaire in Anambra state Nigeria. The design is meant to serve himself, his family and his workers. To be sited near a lake called Agulu in Anambra State, the design aims at providing conducive living enviroment. Furthermore, the design also focuses on flexibility and creativity of the designer in terms of providing a smart home for the client by paying attention to necessary technical details as contained in the brief.

Program - Allocating different zones based on their activities into different masses for proper movement
July 2021 | Hotel Architecture | Final Academic Year Project
The “Elegant” Hotel, the 50 rooms medium-sized urban hotel is a design exercise that focuses on design skills and competence by showing flexibity and ordering of the enviroment to accommodate user’s requirement, concepts and principles of design. The proposed center is to be sited in the city center of Enugu metropolis. The projects explores the functional and aesthetic issues related to designs in the environment while also meeting the needs of the “Three” major components, The Client, The staff and the Guests. These three needs dictates the adopted form and concept - tripple space concept - adopted to separate the different zones of activities as it relates to each user while being fused together into a single body of mass. This concept also ensures privacy in Building Mass- Fragmentation of building mass programs are organised both vertically and horizontally to retain all required adjacenties and visual connections in a compact volume.
The proposed hotel design is a 50-room sized hotel that accommodates different categories of rooms ranging from the standard bedrooms, deluxe bedrooms, executive suites and a single Presidential suite. The ground floor ac commodates most of the temporary activities such as the multi-purpose hall, the meeting rooms, restaurant area, the kitchen and servery and the staff changing room. At the central core is the circulation area which takes you to the other spaces either vertically or horizontally. The bed rooms on the upper floor level flanked both sides of the short distance lobby- just at the end of each of the lobby is an escape stair in case there is need for emergency exit from the building.

Site Orientation-harnessing the tradewinds
Description:
Design in the tropics zone due to the excessive heat requires that the building the properly oriented to harness the southwest and northeast tradewinds. Also, breaking up the building mass allows for easy penetration of air and light into the structure, horizontal masses were also introduced above openings to shade the interior spaces from ultra-violet sun radiation.
Connections - between natural outdoor and in door area makes rooms more enjoyable to be in
lecturer’s residence is to be sited in one of the choicest areas fn the University of Nigeria Campus, Enugu, just few kilometers away from the Academic section of the University. The four bedroom bungalow projects seeks to solve the problem of natural ventilation which is a major design problem in the tropics while alsp providing habitable living space. The design uses buiding orientation in relation to the tradewinds as one of the tool in solving the problem while also adopting the arrangement of staggered rectangular masses concept to allow for proper movement of air through the building.

AN IMPARTIAL VIEW OF ‘FAIR’ OR ‘FARE’
THANK YOU
One of the most alluring things about this structure is the façade elements in its rhythmic nature, the elements are harmonious so much that it conveys a sense of absolute perfection in its construction, pulsing and metrically in graceful alignment. Safe to say that the lack of proper documentation poses a dent on its seemingly rich modernist history. The exact date of its construction and completion were not known, as no account of the historical event surrounding its construction were found in the archives. From the interviews conducted and information gotten from some sources, it is assumed that the structure must have been built between the early 1960’s to Mid 1960’s. Sadly, that is all there is to it. It only brings to my thought why it is important that we keep good, precise and accurate records of buildings and monuments we have in around in our time so that the generation unborn will have something to fall back when need arises.
The structure which formerly serve as the College of Arts and Technology building, now christened ‘Lagos Building’ is one of the most historic and earliest building to be erected on the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus site. Apparently of a rich history, the now faded cream-coloured building popularly known for its lush and vibrant ever green garden which adorn its landscape or open courtyard is one of the most beautiful scenes on the campus, so graceful that it was nicknamed “the Love Garden”. Its unsure whether the change of name makes up for the change of face, though the building still asserts itself in the environment where it is sited, as a building that draws the attention of whoever passes by it.
A two-winged structure, with one being a mirror of the other, separated by a beautiful landscape view and somewhat connected by a long but not-too-wide concrete covered pavements and walkways on both ends, the building is being flanked on its rare sides by asphalt tarred roads and mid-height bloomy trees. The elongated building with its less broad width contains rows of rectangular classrooms, offices, laboratories and also conveniences, just to mention a few. The now washed-out, achromatic two-storey structure still imposes itself as grander and taller character in the surrounding. Crowning the two-wing structure is the stone-tile gable roof construction, old fashion but without any feeling of oddness, the roof is perforated at strategic points with vertical channel of pipes protruding out assumed to conducts smoke and combustion gases from the labora tories below, the washed-out concrete coverings above the walkways linking the two structures only on the ground floors stills looks strong as if it were made of impeccable material, the paints only being washed by the constant and consistent downpour while also being heated by the scorching sun. There is an obvious and intentional use of vertical and horizontal elements on the building facade, though simplistic in nature, it could only best describe the architecture of the time in which the building was constructed, it was during the era when Modern Architecture was prevalent. The long narrow windows were arranged in a consecutive and repetitive straight-line manner, just like the ray of the morning sun. It creates a pattern that evokes a sense of fulfilment and only divided by the thin horizontal layer of concrete element, few inches thick, it creates a sense of flow and connection while it also shades the interior spaces from the scorching sun.
