Issa Diabate to Lead Workshop on Developing Sustainable Coastal Housing in Yale

Issa Diabate, co-founder of Koffi and Diabate Architectes, will lead a workshop on “Developing Sustainable Coastal Housing” at the Yale School of Architecture in Connecticut, USA.

According to Koffi and Diabate Architectes official page, Issa Diabate’s workshop will “focus on the Ebrah project in Côte d’Ivoire, exploring innovative approaches to urban development in sensitive coastal environments.”

Drawing lessons from the Ebrah project, the Ivorian architect will share with the master students “concepts of sustainable architecture, integrating local materials, and climate-friendly design. These concepts form the bedrock of his Ivory Coast-based design firm, which he co-founded with his partner, Guillaume Koffi, in 2001.
