Kageno, A Place of Hope
Firm
SIZE
25,000 sqft - 100,000 sqft
SPG Architects was asked to design a collection of buildings to address the relief efforts in Banda, Rwanda. The project was named Kageno, A Place of Hope.
Located on property donated by members of the village of Banda, Rwanda, this modern collection of 32,000 square feet of community buildings address concerns of the villagers as conveyed to the relief organization, Kageno. Given the site, it was necessary for the architecture to both produce its own power and manage its own waste, but this project goes beyond architectural sustainability, incorporating social and cultural viability into its mission.
A community center, library & office facility and kitchen anchor the site, with two branches in a “V” with a health center & pharmacy serving 1000 people monthly, 4 classrooms serving 300 children, a visitor's center, and bungalows for visitors and permanent staff. Local materials such as brick, stucco, and corrugated metal roofs are the primary building components.
The site planning and building forms are energized and modern, serving as a symbol of Kageno's message of a hopeful future.
