We have been experimenting with the direct approach that labourers use in constructing bamboo scaffolding, using that technique to make architectural objects in the environment. Latest offering is a temporary pavilion at the Ecobank HQ in Lagos being used for Adire Lagos Event
Crisscrossing bamboo poles combine with woven raffia mats to form this pavilion built by architecture studio HTL Africa in Lagos, Nigeria.
