National Institute of Rural Development
Thiès, Senegal

Built in the middle of the agricultural zone, 75 km away from Dakar, the Institute integrates into the savannah landscape. It is planned as a series of buildings laid out to form a cohesive campus. The project arises like a fortress-oasis in the middle of the gardens, cultivated by the students and teachers. The Institute includes classrooms, administration block, laboratories, a library and student housing.
