Orange Village / Koffi & Diabaté Architectes

Bianca Valentina Roșescu — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0000

Through an architectural approach anchored in sustainability, the architects chose to design an imposing building with futuristic style on 7 levels in the form of rings of 68 diameter meters. With a double skin holding both thermal and aesthetic functions, the new Orange Côte d'Ivoire headquarters is innovative in its shape, suggestive of a golf ball, a subtle reminder of Abidjan's renowned Riviera golf course.

Gymnasium, Blaise Pascal High School / Koffi & Diabaté Architectes

Ventilation and brightness: The ground floor, where the locker rooms are located, is a more opaque and intimate block. Direct sunlight which may be a source of glare is avoided in the table tennis room and in the gym room.
On the 2nd floor (as in the next floor level after Ground floor level), the façade is made of perforated sheet metal and has two usages. It provides passive protection from direct sunlight and ensures thermal comfort through natural ventilation. The almost constant temperature of the sports hall, the true "lung of the project", makes air conditioning useless, even when the temperatures reach 35 ° outside.

Here, our goal was to go beyond the traditional and to create a building in conformity with religious norms, all the while being modern, imposing and reflective of the spirit of the city. A building structure with character, both simple and intricate in its design details, with an emphasis put on natural ventilation.

Bambou Pavillion / Koffi & Diabaté Architectes

Light, space, air… Those are some of the keywords behind the design inspiration for this project. A true representation of our “less is more” approach, with the Bambou Pavilion, our aim was to create a house that blended with the environment, all the while being resolutely modern.
