This African brother not only made Black Africa proud but he also makes us (African descendants) in the diaspora proud as well. Well done Mr. Diebedo Francis Kere.

Kere, doesn't follow- he leads! And he leads through his wisdom, by staying connected to his roots, to the earth. And that's the reason, his works are so alive and always evolving, like nature itself. Thank you putting up this video on Kere. He is inspirational! 👍🏻

I like how he matches the colour of the building to the natural colour of the soil . Using bright colour for example in Kenya makes the buildings look old when rain pours and soil splashes on the walls.

Same with Ethiopians...traditional aksumite architecture,traditional zagwe architecture and traditional Ethiopian bamboo houses are all very african and Ethiopian...same with swahili architecture...which has morphed a lot over the years...initially,it was huts...then homes made of local coral limestone then homes that are found in...old mombasa town...to homes that look like tropical resorts eg naomi Campbell's home in malindi...it was hotels that copied the locals

The way Kere uses locally sourced materials, updates traditional building methodologies, and brings people of the community together to participate in the construction of his projects is quite visionary. His works undoubtedly become a huge source of local pride. Especially endearing is that many of his projects are designed for children. Perhaps some of them will find his works inspire them to study architecture.

2022 fue un año de resarcimiento y ruptura, de vuelta a la raíz arquitectónica, he sido tan feliz de pensar que quizás el planeta tendría una oportunidad. Que no seguiríamos la línea de mega estructuras inhabitables, que dejasen una huella en nuestro entorno de forma indeleble. Como si la Arquitectura fuese arte y no oficio al servicio del hombre. Fue un momento sublime ver Bioconstrución, mimetización con el entorno, trabajo comunitario y empleo de material artesano y local en cada obra. Adiós Keré, no te preocupes, tus huellas han calado hondo en los jóvenes corazones que proyectarán el futuro.

I liked some of the designs in theory but the coordinates seems to be off as with most people. Like the residential area - built all out in center. Each house is individual and should have been placed on lots taking taking the physical environment in consideration. Then leaving space between areas designing for instance in increments of 12 block increments with each area having its own uniqueness. If the house built on lots you can build over time with each family having their privacy. Thanks for letting me share. You know the floors. Would you consider designing floors off the ground.
