West African Development Bank
Lome, Togo

The bank is centrally located on an irregular site near the town center. The building, an assembly of rectangular and cylindrical volumes, is organised around an interior court that is square in plan. The heights of the volumes vary; the largest is seven-storeys. Functions such as reception areas, offices, library, and conference room are contained in the cylindrical volumes. Aluminium grilles are used on windows to filter the harsh light.
