F I N A L Y E A R D E S I G N P R O J E C T 2 0 1 9 (B A C H E L O R O F ARCHITECTURE) PROJECT: THE KENYA INTERNATIONAL ARTS AND CULTURAL CENTRE This is a real project under Kenya's Vision 2030. The centre will help realise the promise of the constitution's fundamental rights of showcasing the beauty of freedom through Art and Culture. As a centre of excellence youth will be able to develop talent and careers through arts. Theatre is a great space where talent, innovation, vision, enterprise, freedom of thought and expression intersect, giving the society an opportunity to examine, criticise , admire and understand itself. The cultural centre will ensure Kenya's culture is preserved for future generations and showcased to the the international audience. The project site is at the Kenya Cultural Centre on Harry Thuku road , opposite the Norfolk Hotel. This project was chosen because cultural centres demand an expressive yet relatable kind of architecture. The project was an exciting challenge to express sustainable design that delievers a cultural yet ultra-modern facility rooted in the urban fabric and linked to the existing Kenya National theatre on site.
THESIS: B I O M I M E T I C A R C H I T E C T U R E I N A C H I E V I N G R E S O U R C E E F F I C I E N C Y
THE ABSTRACT The ever increasing human population and rapid urbanization has had environmental impacts most notable, global warming and resource depletion. Cities experience the greatest impacts and Nairobi is no exception. While the world makes progress in adapting and mitigating the effects of global warming, often resource consumption and its contribution to greenhouse gas emissions and planetary degradation is overlooked. This study seeks to highlight the importance of a resource ef ficient built environment and biomimicry is one of the many ways through which this can be achieved. Biomimicry enables functions to be delivered with less assets thus achieving resource ef ficiency. The aim of this research was to investigate the role of biomimicry in achieving resource efficiency in architecture with a bias towards energy and water. This is because the two resources are used in the everyday functioning of buildings and are directly and indirectly consumed by building occupants. The study began by reviewing literature by other authors on the subject matter in order to gain an understanding on the subject. The study is built on the findings of these authors and architectural adaptations are drawn based on the principles of biomimicry. The study adopted a case study research approach, selecting two local case studies and one international precedent study: The Catholic University of East Africa Learning Resource Centre, Vienna Court and Council House 2 in Melbourne Australia. The qualitative analysis was based on the architectural adaptations drawn from the literature review while the quantitative analysis was based on industry standards. Water and Energy were analysed quantitatively with the use of Green Star SA O f fice V1 rating tools. A potable water calculator was used in calculating water ef ficiency while building energy consumption was compared to that of a notional building which acted as the benchmark. Both buildings emerged energy efficient and this is attributed to the use of biomimetic design principles. The findings show that water ef ficiency is best achieved by minimizing potable water demand and adopting closed loop water cycles. In order to achieve a resource efficient built environment, the study strongly recommends the use of biomimetic principles during the different phases of a building, factoring in the indoor environmental comfort of building occupants and building user awareness.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT THE AFRICAN DRUM is chosen as the concept model. This is because across all Kenyan cultures the drum is a tool used in folklore. It is easily recognisable and relatable to the comon man. A man playing the drum is studies and design concepts are drawn from this. 1

As there are three separate buildings on site, three people playing drums are chosen and they represnt different age groups. The three buildings are -Adults organised around an -Youth existing theatre on site. -Children
1. THE ADULT. PUBLIC BUILDING -Foodcourt -Shops -Art Galleries -Theatre -Square 2. THE YOUTH. SEMI PUBLIC. -Hall of Fame -Cultural Museum -Auditorium
The legs and drum are used in developing building plans on site 3. THE CHILD. PRIVATE BUILDING -Kenya Cinservatoire of Music -Creative Arts Studio -Recording Studio
PLANNING CONCEPT The proposed development is organised along a spline that radiates from the existing National Theatre. The radial spline ties together the old and the new buildings on site representing how culture evolves and embraces change. Culture is the everyday way of life and much of it is intangible. The people and the activities carried out in the centre give the place an identity by creating the spirit of the place. A linear axis cuts across the old and new theatre creating a square between the two buildings. The spline is fully pedestrian and forms a cultural concourse across the site. Buildings are organised along the spline.

The supply of affordable housing in Kenyan urban areas consistently falls short of the demand by the everburgeoning population in Nairobi and other urban settlements. The Government of Kenya is committed to providing housing through recent pronouncements by H.E., The President in his Big Four Plan and demonstrated in the recent Budget allocations by the Treasury (Republic of Kenya, 2018). Further, County Governments (App. 4), like Nairobi, have recently shown SPACE commitment using varying strategies including the redevelopment of Old Colonial African estates like in Eastlands, Nairobi (Nairobi City County, 2018). This is in line with recently enacted laws that Abstract, infinite and mandate County Governments to engage in the provision of services, including housing, to the conceptual. urban residents (Republic of Kenya, 2013) (Republic of Kenya, 2011).

BUILDING PROCESS
FLOOD RESILIENT SETTLEMENTS BY REDCROSS KENYA POSITION: 1ST PRIZE WINNER PROJECT BRIEF The project involved the design of low cost residential houses in a flood prevelant area.
1. Structural Shell
2. Modular panel infills
3. Timber frame structure
4. Roof grid structure
5. Balustrades + Ladder/stair
6. Thatch Roof and side cover
Key factors for consideration were: adaptability, low cost construction, low tech construction, locally available materials and cultural considerations. 3.Rainy season starts to end - flood level drops
THE SITE
4. Dry season Returns - Life goes back to ground
The site, Budalangi- located in the western part of Kenya-experiences floods each year leaving residents displaced and desponent. The site is located on the edge of river Nyando riperian zone.
Components
THE CONCEPT
The main concept entailed saving the lives of the family first then the house by being destroyed by the forces of nature. An additional level was created above an already raised house that would accomodate the family during floods. The house is made of rigid columns but removable wall panels that are stored on upper level to give way for flood water hence reducing need for new materials for a house after floods season. The first floor is left open during most parts of the year as is used as outdoor living space, it is accessible by a comfortable timeber ladder. During floods, the ground floor walls are moved upwards and this creates a space where a family can store their possessions as they move to upper ground or the enclosed room can be used for living. In an African homestead, the main house has the sitting areas for guests and the parents' room. The sittintg room area is converted to sleeping space yet to reach puberty at night. 2. Rainy day
3. Rainy season persists Flood signs alarms family to migrate to upper floor
The proposed floor layout consists of visitor sitting area, the parents' bedroom and a small room that can be used as a store or children's bedroom. The first floor living area is left open during most parts of the year and is used as outdoor living area, and is accessible by a comfortable timber ladder.
4. Flood Levels peaks Family is safe and waits for rescue. House panels saved and stored on top floor leaving open ground to allow flood water to flow

5. Flood Levels drops Family prepares to migrate back to ground level
6. Back to life Family fully migrates back to ground level. Wall panels returned to recbuild home.

NEIGHBORHOOD
The close relationship between land development, drainage management and housing design is significant in our design approach to flood resistant housing. The design of houses in relation to their private open spaces, the street, the neighbourhood and overall masterplan are interrelated in minimising the damaging effects of flooding.
Ground level
The design of a modular house can be integrated into a neighbourhood context. This community amalgamation creates an opportunity for a resilient community living in the event of flooding. The adaptability of the first floor is exemplified by interconnected drawbridges at the backyard. This becomes the new "front yard" which creates access to the common services such as the health centre, shops and the school wich have been created on a raised land above the high level flood plane. Also, in case of adverse flooding, these bridges become the rescue channels.
