These building capsules from China are already being purchased and installed in Nigeria and apparently they cost about $10k per unit; Could this be a great step towards solving the problem of affordable housing in Nigeria?

The Silhouette house uses a strategic positioning of breeze blocks + indoor pool at a central circulation point (the stairs) to facilitate the movement of natural air within the building, making it more energy efficient 🍃

Instead of those HDF panels that are becoming a trend, why can’t we do designs & patterns like this for our interior spaces?

Dear Nigerians, instead of paying such amounts for unattractive white boxes, why not pay an Architect (like me) to do something custom like this for you and get good value for your money?

This modern home in Brazil is the type of Architecture we should adapt as modern in Nigeria, not those white boxes..

Saw this video of Kunle Afolayan’s private residence on TikTok. This is called tropical style of Architecture and it is how we should build our houses in tropical climates like we have here in Nigeria and other countries along the equator..

This floor in method known as kaavi flooring is great for thermal efficiency and lasts longer than tiles and marble. Why aren’t they mainstream?

They’re cooking in Ghana🇬🇭: this is an off-shore coastal development built like a community cluster. The pathways are paved with natural stones and lush greenery and the design of the building makes it energy efficient..

I need Nigerian (especially Lagos) developers to come and see what an actual luxury development looks like. Fun fact: you can do this in Ogun State and still have easy access to Lagos. Send me a DM if you want such 🤙🏼

Bring back central courtyards that allow natural ventilation and light flow through the building. This is how we’re meant to live 🤌🏼

Thank you Moe for bringing this up! As an Architect who has lived and practiced in Lagos for almost a decade now, I have seen some atrocities called buildings, so I made this video weeks back, talking about how we’re meant to build in response to our climate

I came across this startup that uses waste products to create something called ecotiles. Why can’t we do this in a state like Lagos, for instance, that reportedly generates 13,000 metric tonnes of waste DAILY? This would: 1. Reduce dependency on imported building materials 2. Reduce cost of construction 3. Employ local labor and skill set 4. Create globally exportable building materials from our local labor market 5. Find a better use for the enormous amount of waste generated daily which constitutes nuisance in our environment
