↗ designing a 100-year old home in Accra
How do you design a 100-year home in Accra?
I've just published an essay that distills 2+ years of learning in answer to this question.
For the quick high-level notes, this short Twitter thread shares an overview of the main ideas.
And for the granular details, the full 13,000 word essay includes full floor plans, material choices, and the design decisions we made in pursuit of a beautiful, adaptable family home.
Whether you're actively working on or dreaming of your own house-building project, I hope you find this document to be a useful resource.
Please feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions, recommendations, or advice. I would love to hear from you.
Love,
Emmanuel
