1.6 THE PHILOSOPHY

What is the effect or difference of gluing pieces together or further breaking more pieces to form one thing? If pieces are glued together, the traces of joins will still show, the memory of where they were borders will remain with the impression that Africa is still divided. If I continue breaking it into smaller pieces, the boundaries will be removed, giving the impression that this is now one thing.

This philosophy will strengthen the development of flowless market activities across Africa. The accommodative Architectural programme will promote this flowless market that responds well to the social context and physical geographical features, which is influential in extending to the international market.

Issues to be addressed in the design development are referred to this philosophy to demonstrate the relevance. This philosophy in this research is more evident in the programme that accommodates various activities that are explored in the border context, and they did not make use of it. Through its diverse program, this proposed marketplace will accommodate different talents in one place. These various activities are opportunities that are fully utilised to make this marketplace beneficial to all classes of people in the society, locally and abroad, eventually erasing the division.

The immediate success of this philosophy will be notable in the involvement of the local communities from both countries to develop this proposal as it links them again and rediscover themselves before the marketplace is operational.
