PROJECTS
"Our work is rooted in a deep understanding of local culture and the environment. By rediscovering ancient building techniques, such as rammed earth construction, and utilizing local natural materials, we seamlessly integrate these with cutting-edge technology to create sustainable and culturally appropriate solutions."

Warka Village
Warka Village is a self-sustaining community designed to provide a dignified living environment for up to 100 people, including Pygmies and other local ethnic groups. This collaborative project showcases a blend of indigenous techniques and locally sourced natural materials, creating structures that honor the cultural identity of the community and its unique surroundings.
Warka Tower
"The Warka Tower is a passive water harvesting system designed to provide an alternative water source for rural populations facing challenges accessing clean drinking water. It utilizes natural phenomena such as gravity, condensation, and evaporation to collect water from the atmosphere, including rain, fog, and dew."
Warka House
It is a sustainable residential unit built with local natural materials. It is inspired by traditional African houses, improving the drawbacks and keeping the cultural features. It offers higher standards of hygiene and comfort thanks to the insulated floor, rain waterproof roof, natural ventilation, and mosquito protection.
Warka Sanitation
It provides safe water for washing (sanitation and personal hygiene) and adequate latrines. With a dry system, human waste is turned into useful compost. With separated facilities (men/women), each toilet has 2 outlets: urine and excrement (liquid / solid waste).
Warka Kitchen
It is a common space for the community for food preparation in a safe and controlled environment. It is also a social space for the villagers to eat together. The preparation of food takes place in a hygienic and well-organized setting for the preparation of traditional food.
Warka Clinic
It provides access to basic quality and affordable health care. It provides health services such as general consultations, laboratory screening, pre-pharmacy with essential drugs, maternal and child health services, maternity space and delivery room, immunization services, general health education, and traditional natural medicine.
Warka Garden
It provides food for the community. The vegetables can be sold to the local market so it can also be a source of revenue for the community. It represents an investment to implement economical possibilities. The WG is modular and varies in size. An efficient water irrigation system will be adopted to optimize the usage of the water.
Warka Solar
Provides electrical energy from sunlight. This can bring a big change in community lifestyle, giving the chance to practice activities after the sunset as well as to recharge devices such as mobile phones. It is designed as a modular system depending on the necessity, the project scale, and the available budget.
Warka STORAGE
It is the community food storage for the preservation of dry grains, roots, tubers, bananas, and plantains. At the core of the pavilion, there is a circular traditional earth grains storage constructed following the ancient traditional techniques.
