Green Heart of Kenya aims to be a regenerative eco-village across 750 acres, divided over a 50 (“Gateway”) and 700 (“GHK”) acres plot, at the Kenyan Coast in Kilifi County. The project consists of sustainable housing, education centres, agroforestry, food production and ecotourism - all integrated into a mutually supportive circular system. The GHK mission is to build regenerative futures for the natural ecosystem and local community, while also supporting the economy and driving profit. GHK Gateway aims to create a vibrant entrepreneurial zone with light industry and symbiotic businesses coexisting with housing. The core aspects guiding the physical development and the spatial layout of the masterplan are “regenerative landscape”, to conserve and regenerate natural ecosystems, increase biodiversity, promote sustainable production and have a net positive impact on the environment; “flexibility & adaptability”, to allow the development to grow organically, thus ensuring a flexible, adaptive and resilient approach to social, environmental and economical changes; “village feel”, to create a neighbourhood with a strong sense of community and sense of belonging in an area that is based on diversity, inclusivity and accessibility.

- Increase in density is primarily to be achieved through a compact low-dense typology.

01

- Increase in density should still allow for natural light, greenery and natural ventilation to the individual units.

- Where possible, buildings should accommodate different functions, for both private and public use.

To encourage quality and diversity in the built form while retaining the overall vision, ambition and qualities of Green Heart of Kenya, the “Design Guidelines” document has been drafted. This is a tool that defines the qualities of architecture, site design, and open space, and are to guide individual projects towards successful design outcome and implementation by giving general recommendations to all developments within Green Heart of Kenya. This document focuses on the development of architecture that is compatible with the local climate (bioclimatic design), built with sustainable, local and natural materials, and that follows the teachings of vernacular local architecture (swahili architecture). Following the design principles of “privacy gradient”, “biophilic design”, “low and dense building”, “diversity”, “social sustainability” and “village feeling”, a typological concept was developed to show how these could be interpreted architecturally, being maintained even as the density increases.

- A mix of unit types and sizes promotes social sustainability, and mitigates social segregation.

The spatial and functional confuguration of the school is based on a preliminary survay made with students, teachers and parents; on Robin Dunbar’s neuroscientific studies on ‘Learning Neighbourhoods’; and on the neuroscientific principle that spaces that promote body movement improve the cognitive functions of the human brain.

Kivukoni International School is an innovative school with strong values focused on hard work, interdependence, respect and honesty. Its manifesto expresses the necessity of educating children in this “rapidly-changing world with a strong foundation of creativity, collaboration, compassion and commitment”. As a result of the necessity of continuing with that process, Kivukoni primary school wants to expand their frontiers and accompany their students throughout their whole school career, by building a secondary school rooted on the same value.

The overall school’s design reflects the organic growth of the students’ explorations, learning and connections with each other and the environment. The design starts from the heart of the knowledge (Library) and the green heart (Environmental Centre). These elements are located within a dense ecosystem with trees and shrubs of different species, and acts as the connection of all the spaces around where greenery and knowledge touch and “infect” each other. This growth takes place in a radial and organic way. Thus, in the same way that amoebas reproduce by binary fission, our modules multiply at the same time as they are generating intermediate zones which are not treated as simple route elements but as spaces where a multitude of spontaneous activities take place. Just as a multitude of activities takes place on the “edges” of the forests. This way also helps to generate a surprise effect from a compressed space to an expanded one. Another fundamental aspect of the school is the relationship with nature, which is also to be integrated into the interior spaces. Our “amoebas” grow by feeding: they open up to capture the green areas that are growing from the heart of the project, generating an indoor/ outdoor effect in each zone.

PIXY is not just a project: it is a concept, an idea, a process developing and growing over time, always being free to change. As a children game, PIXI is made of modules that can be aggregated in different ways, and, like the image’s pixels, when looked at as a whole, they can create unexpected and surprising results. The satellite preschool project aims to be the most flexible, sustainable, inclusive possible. The modular panel and the modular structure allows the design to adapt to different context and buildings functions. The materials used for the construction, mainly straw, clay and eucalyptus wood, have been chosen because they are local and natural. The building technology is very easy to learn and connected to the building tradition of the place. The preschool is designed according to the principles of bioclimatic architecture (to ensure maximum comfort during all seasons), to the idea of reuse of natural resources and to be completely accessible to people with disabilities.

PIXY consists of space particles and modular elements. A quadrangular area of 8x8m is the fundamental spatial particle able to host various functions. Each particle is interchangeable and composable in infinite combinations; they can be aggregated one to each other based on the space needed by the function hosted (e.g. one classroom is composed of one particle, the multifunctional space by two). And not only that, each particle can be empty, full or filled later according to spatial and functional requirements. The empty parcel consists just of the regular structure formed by wooden pillars and beams filled by empty modular panels, where necessary; while in the full parcel, the modular panels are filled with earth and straw mixtures or wooden frames to form real walls with doors and windows. The modular panels composing the walls can be used in different ways; they can be fixed or movable furniture, vertical planters for gardening activities, bookshelves or shading elements. Everything is designed to be as much transformable and flexible as possible according to different needs and contexts.

All spaces are designed to be accessible to people with disabilities, who are often forgotten in these contexts and forced to live with numerous difficulties. Access ramps have been placed at several points, both as main and secondary entrances, in the main building and in all service buildings. A disabled toilet is provided in the toilet block.

/ SUSTAINABILITY AND INCLUSIVITY

The modularity and flexibility of the individual design particles make it easy to adapt to different contexts depending on how they are assembled and composed to achieve the final design. Being able to easily choose where to fill-in wall panels to screen out the sun, or where to leave space for windows to promote natural ventilation, opens up endless possibilities for adaptation to different climates. The use of earth as a building material allows for the balancing of room temperatures and humidity, ensuring high indoor comfort. The roofs of each module are designed so that they can be assembled to create large rainwater harvesting surfaces. Through the right inclination and the correct positioning of gutters and downpipes, the water is collected in special tanks and then reused in various ways (e.g. in bathrooms, kitchens and in the irrigation of gardens and green areas). The large roofs also allow the placement of numerous solar panels to provide electricity and hot water to the school.

The design concept centres around the word ‘embrace,’ which means ‘to accept or hold closely in one’s arms as a sign of affection.’ By addressing feminist concerns of privacy and security, the design aims to ensure that every woman in the Baghere community feels a sense of love, security, and acceptance within the designed space. Hence, the layered approach to spatial organisation and the choice of a circular form depicting completeness, fluidity, and softness of the feminine anatomy. Traditional architecture techniques heavily influence the design in its shape, materiality, and the use of an open courtyard for ventilation, circulation, and leisure. The stabilised earth brick external wall portrays strength and fortification, which does not seek to dominate but harmonises with the architectural language of its environment. Like open arms, the building welcomes users through choreographed entrances that allow people to explore the unique spatial experience within the structure. The building consists of arms distinctly divided into public and private in the functions they perform. Following the above, the entrance ramps help to effectively separate circulation while providing the women with the ability to access counselling and health services discretely, without fear of judgement.

The project is part of a program, promoted by CBM Italia, in favor of the inclusivity of people with visual impairments to educational and health services. Located in the lot near the existing one (characterized by inadequate and dangerous spaces), the new school consists of four main buildings, connected by covered paths accessible by people with disabilities. Patios, meeting spaces and outdoor classrooms, together with the area dedicated to educational gardens, characterize the exterior spaces of the project. The design is based on sustainability, bioclimatic and inclusivity principles.

The project lot is in an intermediate position between the “formal” city (South and East), dating back to the colonial period, and the “informal” city (North and West). The area has very marked boundaries and is surrounded by two main arteries connecting Maputo CBD with peripheral areas, nearby cities (Matola), and important services (airport). This makes it a strategic area (due to the presence of shopping malls, formal and informal commercial activities, and a public park) but also an area with difficult accessibility. As a result of its central position, the informal settlement is the most vulnerable part of the lot as it is not legalized and is subjected to pressures from the public and private investors. Following the will of the municipality to densify the area, and considering the structure of the “consolidated” city, the project aim is to progressively bring the “formal” grid in the informal settlement without disrupting the internal dynamics of the lot and providing the inhabitants with the conditions for obtaining the DUAT (the right to use and benefit of land). The first step consists of improving the accessibility to the lot through the creation of safer connections with the surrounding streets, the neighbourhoods, and the public transportation system. The attention is then dedicated to bringing the city grid into the lot improving its two main axes. They will be enlarged, paved, and provided with a drainage system. The North-South axis will be made two-way vehicle accessible, while the West-East axis will remain pedestrian and will be shaded by a row of trees. This will be possible through two different procedures of slum upgrading: the first involves the demolition of the buildings that would obstruct the route of the new road too much and the backward reconstruction of 2/3 storey buildings; the second involves a dialogue with the inhabitants to enhance and widen the road through small adjustments of a portion of their courtyards. The densification process allows the creation of public spaces along the roads usable by the population and by small local commercial activities. It was also analysed the possibility of using Praça de Touros for placing photovoltaic panels and a rainwater collector to provide energy and water to the entire neighbourhood in a legal way. The project is considered as a starting point for the complete upgrading and homogenisation of the lot. It will be possible to proceed with enhancing the road network, increasing the density and the open spaces within the informal area, but also continuing the grid in the southern part of the lot.

The project area is located on a sloping terrain characterised by the presence of many trees, on the edge of the built-up area, between the urban landscape and the hillside. The new school is located at the current pedestrian access and occupies a large part of the site of the previous building, in order to preserve the entire tree park and safeguard the protected trees. The articulation of the new building is served by a single barycentric element connecting all the required functions. The resulting architectural figure refers to the typology of suburban villas, a scheme adopted precisely because of its appropriateness to the specific characteristics of the natural element in this particular place in the landscape between town and country. The project integrates into the context by benefiting from the slope of the land, allowing the landscape to embrace the new volumes and be perceived in its entirety. The layout is built on perpendicular alignments oriented according to the cardinal points. The load-bearing axis is expressed by means of a gap between the emerging volumes at the front, intended for collective services, and two bodies in line, intended for teaching. On this axis are placed the internal vertical connections and the external staircase, which constitutes one of the connections to the adjacent public park. The differences in height provided in the distributive articulation are harmonious with the hill profile and allow an easy sectioning of the building.

The project area is located on the boundary between the historic village of San Donato, a low-intensity open urban system inserted in the ‘garden-city’, and the new Eni Management Centre, a closed system formed by a single building cluster that resolves the urban form within it, a sort of city within the city. The peculiar condition of the area forces the project theme on a threshold between two antithetical urban forms and suggests the development of a third element, capable of mediating between them. The project envisages a completely open and permeable system, in line with the historical grid, consisting of two similar towers. These set back from the street line and from their own footprint, relating in volume and height to the new Management Centre. Each tower is set on three elements staggered one on top of the other both in plan and in elevation, in order to streamline the figure. Laterally, the disjointedness between the wall system and the building body composes a design consisting of a series of monolithic wings that exceed the real geometries of the building. The heads of the volumes are instead all resolved by large glazed infills. The articulation is accentuated by the sequence of terraces placed on the shorter sides, corresponding to the main compositional lines. The garden design develops without fences at the base of the towers, substantially returning to the entire community and becoming part of the city.
