YAOUNDE HOUSING PARK

The objective here is to give a new image to peri-urban Yaoundé by offering an alternative to mobility. The exploitation of the site, located at the entrance to the city and in an industrial zone, could also reveal landscape assets and potential. It also involves reclassifying a sector located between the city and the village. The general concept of building location follows a fairly simple logic: living in the park. It is a question of creating a coherent whole allowing all the architectural developments to benefit from the park and its landscaped aspect.

URBAN PARK WITH CULTURAL AND VOCATION MEMORIAL

From an attempt to answer the question: What means can we simultaneously safeguard the memory of the city, regreen it and promote local culture, The project aims to be oriented towards the territory in terms of urban practices, fashion of life and above all of collective aspirations. The choice made is to design a project that fits like a puzzle piece into the existing and planned urban fabric. The work is carried out with a view to saving construction, through simple processes such as the standardization of construction elements. In fact, the structures respect regular dimensions, facilitating mass production and implementation. Priority is given to locally available materials in order to confirm cost reduction intentions but also to promote the culture of the territory.

RESTRUCTURING OF A FISHING VILLAGE YOUPWE

The spatial configurations inherited from the colonial era notably had the effect of cutting off indigenous populations from access to the river, an essential resource for their physiological, cultural and spiritual needs. The city of Douala clearly illustrates this spatial segregation between “colonial city” and “indigenous city” and thus provides the opportunity to reflect on how to remedy it. The project is an attempt to answer the question of “renewing the link between the city and the port”. The subject of the restructuring of the YOUPWE fishing village is relevant in this regard.

COLLECTIVE FACILITIES IN KOUSSERI: ʺTALOU GASSOUMOU ʺ (COME AND LET’S SHARE)

The project is inspired by the “Calabash”, an object used daily in many families in the northern Cameroon region, made from earth or from the eponymous plant. In addition to the use, the underlying symbolism is to make it a receptacle for the population. Thus, collective facilities will be both in form and in function as places to share.

DEVELOPMENT OF A STUDENT LIFE CENTER IN THE SOA UNIVERSITY CAMPUS

The campus of the University of Yaoundé II Soa is structured into three poles, administrative, educational and sports and the absence of the student pole is cruelly felt in view of the massive wandering of students between two activities. In order to overcome this situation, the proposed project consists of a “student life” center which will join, complete and organize the urbanization of the Soa campus. It is made up of student accommodation and a multi-purpose center, the “Student House”, located at the heart of the system and which meets different needs for sociability and sharing.
