unity building | gho

The brief for GHO was to create a home for the company to overtly reflect its roots in the African Continent and the African experience. The story of the experiences gained nearly a decade ago, had to be translated into core design descriptives – resilient, tough, agile and robust. Conceptually, three notions physically seeded the key parts of the GHO design solution – heart , hive and skin:

heart: this is a space – the seat of energy – the atrium

hive: this is a place and an object – the embedded piece of grit

skin: this is the visible fabric of the building – the materials, surfaces, textures and colours
