Gando Primary School
(2001, Gando, Burkina
Faso)
Gando Primary School (2001, Gando, Burkina Faso) established
the foundation for Kéré’s ideology– building a
wellspring with and for a community to fulfill an essential
need and redeem social inequities. His response required
a dual solution – a physical and contemporary design
for a facility that could combat extreme heat and poor
lighting conditions with limited resources, and a social resoluteness
to overcome incertitude from within the community.
