Inspiration from Gando for design


The building in Gando, Burkina Faso, was designed with sustainability in mind in a rural community. The architect and a local, Francis Kere, wished to built the first school for the community. Not only is the building sustainable in design but also provided the community, especially the adults, new building skills that would be used to improve the community itself.
