Centre culturel SERER

Project idea

The idea of the project is a mixture of culture and heritage, starting from that of the Serer people of Senegal. Indeed the proposal made in this project is a complex culture, which will bring together not the traits of the Senegalese but also the culture of all of Subaerial Africa. On one hectare we have a central building which is a 22 floor tower and 4 others R+5 buildings that complete the cultural complex. The tower which here represents the spirit of the project, its design and its location recalls how the Serer people built their habitat around the habres. It is necessary here to make a point of honor to the materials chosen for this project, it is true that this project is utopian but the choice of materials constituted to make this more original project. The serers had a particularly earthen construction, it is therefore as well as in this project the earth is chosen for the elements of sculpture and other building decorations. Here is a brief description of our project.
