Burkina Institute of Technology: Kéré Architecture
We were tasked with examining earth based/earth bound and hybrid construction technologies and their attendant architectural tectonics through a physical model. As a group of three, we built a section model of the Burkina Institute of Technology, designed by Kéré Architecture. We simulated the materials used in the actual building to highlight the construction systems/connections at work in the project.
