Text description: To be built on a highway road joining Kigali and Bugesera International Airport. This project proposes single bedroom apartments associated with offices on the ground floor. There is also a luxury villa that can host families. The composition is made of a repeated module proportioned to the width of each apartment. It is repeated orderly to create a rhythm that protects elevations from boredom of scale. Use of local bricks perforated with Imigongo, traditional patterns, was a good way to exhibit Rwandan culture on a road that shall be used by almost all country’s guests.
