Centre for Earthen Architecture in Mopti, Mali
The construction of the Centre for Earth Architecture accomplishes the activities of the AKTC in Mopti after the restoration of the mosque and the construction of a new sewerage system. The construction site has been gained by a backfill at the waterside of an interior lake and so the lakeside has been made accessible for public use. The program itself responds both to the needs of the district management Komoguel as to the visitors of the cultural facilities of the district.
Ibai Rigby collaborated in the process that selected Francis Kéré for the project and worked as site architect during the construction of the building.
