Speaking at the event on the topic of “Twisting Bodies and Spaces”, is Seun Oduwole, the principal of Lagos- based architecture firm, SI.SA.
Here’s a synopsis of the event via Caauie Lifestyle,
As Lagos marches towards a greater acceptance of Modernist-Revival architecture, there is a proliferation of the ‘style’ of it, and not the substance.
.
Architecture firm SI.SA practice a more responsible and intellectually inspired Modernism. Seun Oduwole, the son of an architect is one who has a great desire to raise the bar for architecture here, but better still, a desire to impart knowledge to others. He is one-third of African Alliance for New Design (AAND).
.
His buildings have daring forms: cantilevered, twisted and seemingly gravity-defying. It is for this reason that we set him the theme ‘Twisting Bodies & Spaces’. His work is positioned within the rising band of ‘Nigerian Modernism’, creating layered buildings that mimick abstract place making.
