From the editor’s desk
The Ointment in the Fly
So- what is in a name? In William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet, while arguing that
the names of things do not matter, only what the things “are”, Juliet quips “What’s in a
name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet!” Fortunately, in this
much acclaimed play, she lived in an era of nobility where the quintessence of substances mattered, but not so in this age.
Fast forward to the 21st Century and reflect for a moment on the names of some of the much sought after residential neigh-
bourhoods in Kenya- I name but a few: Runda, Muthaiga and Karen in Nairobi, Nyali and Tudor (yes, christened after that
royal Welsh dynasty ruled the United Kingdom) in Mombasa, the Milimanis of Kisumu, Kitale and Nakuru, the Elgon View
and Kapsoya of Eldoret. Do not all these romanticised names elicit a longing of “when I grow up, I wanna…”
It is the pride of every architect when one is commissioned to design a residential or commercial unit in these areas, for
these for with such names, how can one not summon all their creative juices as they sketch and plan for the new develop-
ment, even invoking that divine intervention will infuse that “wow!” factor into the project? But that is about all they turn
out to be, interesting and embellished works of art limited within the perimeter of the boundaries that define the property.
Should one seek ‘zoom out’ to pan over the context in which they sit, one quickly picks out the ointment in the fly (sic) and
exposes the ‘Grand-theft houses’ heist ; one is confronted by run down and not-up-to-scratch support infrastructure which
consists of poor urban design elements. Take a peek and the heading of the scam bare before your very eyes: piped comes
only twice a week so you need a borehole and an underground water reservoir. The streets leading up to these hyped
‘gems’ have dumpsters teeming with garbage at the nodes; roads extremely narrow, sometimes, with no sidewalks for pe-
destrians to amble without having to worry about safety with fast vehicular traffic alongside.
In Nairobi, in the so called ‘posh’ areas of Hurlingham and Parklands, most narrow lanes do not have bollards and other
appropriate street furniture and it is not uncommon to find pedestrians having to make a choice between scampering for
safety towards open storm-water drains that flank these roads and risking or risk their lives at the mercy of furiously-driven
cars. The same neighbourhoods, their big names notwithstanding, do not have easy access to convenience stores, street
lighting, bus lays, never mind that they are not served by decent means of public transport. Should you, being part of the
nouveau-riche finally grow up and save enough to buy into neighbourhoods, you will be scandalised to learn that newer
available plots areas are defined by untarmacked access roads and largely incomplete civil works. Police stations are perma-
nently on your list and because you pay more tax, you must pay for private security as well. After tricking you to buy and the
cheque safely pocketed, the developer, pointing at the zonal masterplan, has the cheek to add with that now familiar saintly
look that “there are plans for a dual carriageway to pass here and it will just border your lot, so the value of your property
will soon triple. In fact, it has just been approved by Cabinet and it will be endorsed in the next County Council meeting…”
Huh! Tell it to the birds!
Meanwhile, as you pay top-dollar for land rates and struggle to service your mortgage, your children, who are the real
victims, have no playing fields and must remain indoors since, the community’s security chief warns, the estate has now
become a haunt of malefactors.
So, what is the catch here? What did one buy? Privacy? - my foot! So, what’s in a name? Is this an camouflaged ‘Mukuru’?

From the Chair’s desk
It has been indeed a vibrant start of the year and in overall a very successful one. We started the year on a high note with the Excellence in Architecture awards which proved to be quite as success. Jury members were drawn from all over Africa. The Award ceremony was
conducted on February 21st 2014 at the Intercontinental Hotel after the Chapter AGM and was graced by Ambassador Martin Kimani, permanent representative of Kenya to UN Habitat.
ADVOCACY AND OUTREACH/ CPD EVENTS OVER THE LAST YEAR Golf Tournament: Friday the 25th of April 2014 we held our Annual Golf Tournament, the 14th since inception. It was an excellent tournament, with a record number of participants and sponsorship.
County Governments Memorandum: The Chapter has prepared a comprehensive memorandum to be distributed to all county governments through the Transition Authority so as to insure that matters built environment are addressed in a structured and professional manner. Of importance to the Chapter: Development of an integrated master plan by counties, sharing of database of architects in good standing with the said counties for easy reference, Procurement of professional services to be guided by statute and Drawing approval process in all counties to be streamlined.
Revised Construction Permits Rates: The chapter notes with concern that the County of Nairobi has increased con-struction permit fees quite significantly. We feel that this is a very critical issue as it may have a negative impact on the construction industry as a whole. An audience with the Governor was held late last year jointly with KPDA (Kenya Property Developers Association). We continue to ardently pursue this matter jointly with KPDA and KEPIN (Kenya Property Industry Network).
Architecture Museum: The Chapter is preparing a concept paper for an Architecture Museum to be hosted by the AAK. This main objective of this is to have a proper archiving system for buildings of great importance to the country. The pos-sibility of having a virtual archiving system is being pursued. The Chapter is looking for partners to fund the initiative.
Social Media: The Chapter launched its Facebook page and Twitter handle as a way of engaging more interactively with the membership and public at large and keeping them informed of activities and events. So far this has been very suc-cessful. The Facebook page has about 550 likes and the Twitter handle about 335 followers. In the same spirit of engaging more with members, the chapter has also launched a digital version of the magazine at the beginning of this year. The e-magazine has been uploaded on the link www.thearchitectmagazine.com. This online presence will enable the magagzine have a reach beyond that of the Chapter only. Members of AAk and the public will be able to give real time feedback on the articles.
2013 EAIA “100 Years of Architecture” Project: Through an outreach to the members, Kenya has submitted the follow-ing buildings: Kipande House, Railway Headquarters, City Hall, The Kenya High School, Parliament Building, IPS building, KICC, ICEA Building, Don Bosco Church, Coca Cola Headquarters, Upperhill, Oceanic Hotel, Catholic University of Eastern Af-rica, Aga Khan Academy, Kenya Commercial BankAfrican Union of Architects (AUA): The chapter continues to be actively involved in the international affiliate institutions, having been represented at all major meetings and fora.
International Union of Architects ( UIA): The UIA will be hosting its Congress in Durban South Africa in August 2014. The AAK is planning to send a delegation down to Durban. Members are welcome to participate in this.
We look forward to engaging further with you throughout the year and to an even more successful year ahead.

OPINION
ARCHITECTS AS INITIATORS OF CHANGE IN KENYABy Rakhee Kantaria
Kenyan architects are working in con-
texts characterised by poverty, envi-
ronmental chaos, rapid urbanisation
and at times, political violence. Their profes-
sion validity is at stake unless the social and
physical priorities dictated by these contexts
are identified and adopted. The profession’s
effective contributions to development and
to economically and politically weaker com-
munities must be addressed.
In Kenya, an attempt to capsule into a
short time span the experience of centuries in
terms of thoughts, methods and technologi-
cal changes has led to a disruption of local
systems and the erasure of local identities. In
addition to the imposition of alien cultures by
colonial powers, Kenya was also victim to the
failed development strategies of the post-
colonial period where intervention was mo-
tivated by political influence and commercial
interest and not based on urgency and need.
It is now realised that development is
not only economic gain but also the abil-
ity to emancipate people from mechanisms
that exploit them. One of the most impor-
tant achievements in modern architectural
thought and design is the historical shift from
the public, monumental emphasis to that of
the individual in a more unified global con-
text emphasising the poorer people of the
world.
Why then do architects in Kenya end up
working for a small percentage of the social
strata... the economic elite? In the private sec-
tor, architects are providing professional ser-
vices of high quality to the financially well-off.
Now, the importance of these services can-
not be gainsaid but considering that
the majority of the population cannot
afford them, is this justified? There
are of course various involvements
in, for example, the provision of low
cost housing projects but private en-
terprises are overwhelmed by the ob-
stacles to the progress of work due to
the highly bureaucratic government
organizations.
In the public sector, isolation from
the initial decision-making and again,
rigid bureaucracies restricts the role of
architects to participation at the tech-
nical level rather than being effective
as initiators of innovative approaches
to environmental change at all politi-
cal, social and technical levels. Unless
new roles are defined, and architects’
influence is extended to serve the un-
disputed majority, many environmen-
tal issues will continue to be based on
political or economic factors rather
than the technical issues.
The extent of the architect’s role
and influence in Kenya is based on
reactionary approach rather than
long-term. There is a dependence on
individual initiative rather than the
institutionalisation of advanced con-
cepts and approaches which could
survive the constant flux of political,
social and environmental changes.
The low-middle income urban and
rural dwellers are continually forced to ac-
cept the lowest standard of services which
unfortunately are incorporated in planning
policies.
Two aspects of essential consideration in
the architectural development in Kenya are
instability and cultural identity. Traditional
lifestyles have been disrupted due to external
forces such as mass displacements of people
due to political violence or hunger; reloca-
tions have occurred due to natural disasters
or shifts in land uses, overwhelming forces of
urbanisation have changed the character of
towns and villages alike. This is the alien con-
text in which a vast majority of Kenyans find
themselves and they are unable to adjust.
The retention of existing cultural identi-
ties is as basic to the development of a peo-
ple as the provision of basic facilities. It is the
only way that communities will appreciate
changes and guarantee their continuity. Any
new system must evolve from and be built
on cultural inheritance. Architects should not
only have attained greater knowledge of their
local environments but also a respect and ap-
preciation for the established systems they
are based upon. This will ensure that archi-
tects are always viewing problems from with-
in and not assuming roles far above the reach
of people and beyond their comprehension.
Architects must formulate effective roles
in community groups at grass root level
where the only predictable forces at work are
those of continuous change. The process of
change can be achieved through vital edu-
cational and research programmes prepar-
ing future professionals to be ready for this
role. A deeper knowledge of local history and
absorption of local and global experiences is
the future architect’s fundamental tool in the
process.
Architecture should be conceived as a
public service and architects as initiators of
change for the benefit of the poorer masses.

The Architect, Issue 1, January-March 2014
In a span of less than a 100 years,
Kenya has transformed magnifi-
cently in terms of architectural de-
velopment. From a period when the
two storey Kipande house, then a rail
warehouse, was the tallest building to
a time that the Times Tower overlooks
the city from over 30 floors in height.
From a period when the coun-
tryside was but a wilderness that Af-
ricans hunted in, farmed and grazed
their livestock to the bustling cities of
Kisumu and Mombasa. Architecture
has transformed the topography and
it does the same to the lifestyle of the
people as well. To recognise and ap-
preciate the milestones achieved in
this sector, the Architectural Associa-
tion of Kenya, with sponsorship from
paint manufacturers Duracoat, organ-
ised an award of excellence in the vari-
ous sectors.
“Architecture is not just important,
but it reflects who we are as we spend
most of our time, either in the offices
or at home, within this built environ-
ment and it is thus crucial to recognise
the efforts put in by this profession,”
said Ambassador Dr Martin Kimani,
Head of Mission to the UN Nairobi as
he presided over the ceremony at the
Hotel Intercontinental.
The panel of four judges (Flora
Runumi- Uganda, Evans Williams An-
fom- Ghana, and Henning Rasmuss-
South Africa) was headed by Kenyan
veteran architect, Dr David Mutiso.
The team spent two days sieving
through the presentations and nomi-
nations and below is the list of Kenya’s

best in the various categories, accord-
ing to the judges. Interesting, none of
the projects entered for the best inte-
rior design category met internation-
al standards according to the judges
and therefore no award was given on
that category.
Architecture is not just important, but it reflects who we are as we spend most of our time in it.

The project is best described as “a
restrained and comforting house
that delights through its welcom-
ing scale, calm use of pleasant materials,
and generous sense of easy living. Avoid-
ing the decorative coatings or commonly
applied cladding of many modern single
family houses, this design is truthful in its
use of materials. It resonates with tropical
house types in many African and global
locations, and joins a long tradition of
calm places for family life, defined by an
ease with which nature and people share
urban or semi-urban plots of land.

The Architect magazine has featured this
project in full in a previous issue. It is a
sure winner in its category. It was pre-
sented as a compact and appropriately scaled
building, with pleasing proportions and suffi-
cient detail for everyday business life. Its heart
is a serene and balanced space, extraordinary
for its sense of drama. This project shows that
it is possible to create uplifting places in the
sometimes nondescript new development
zones along previously suburban streets in
densifying cities across Kenya and the conti-
nent.

Location: Lamu
Architect: Urko Sanchez Architects,
2012
Situated at the Kenyan coast,
right on the shore line, this is
a truly exceptionally crafted
building, nestled with ex-
treme care and a unique sense of flair
and daring into its coastal forest set-
ting. The building footprint is almost
divined out of the forces at play on the
site. The assembly process is as rigor-
ously considered and expressed as
the research that underlies the intelli-
gent engagement with the client. The
project is lovingly made, and is pre-
sented with a care and consideration
that shows true passion for the art and
the craft of architecture.

Client Brief
We will let the architects tell the story in their own words
The client wanted a private resi-dence that shared a connection with Lamu but was secluded from the main town itself. He had a passion for archi-tecture and at the same time liked to be in contact with nature.
Combining these two attributes, a chance was presented to create a form of organic architecture that had a bal-ance of traditional craft and modern comfort.
The client had great respect for the environment and wished that the design process preserved the forest as much as possible. Likewise, the con-struction process and eventually the running of the building were to share the same attribute.
The house was to be designed in zones that could be occupied by the whole family or reduced to one when he was alone. The client also had a knee problem, which meant that the house would have to be designed on one floor to avoid him climbing stairs.
He is a major contributor to the Aniclan Children’s Shelter that lies not far behind the plot and desired to have a close relationship with the orphan-age.
Eventually, the client would like to profit from a design where parts of the house could be rented out yet still maintain a barrier of privacy between the occupiers and himself.
With this, Urko Sanchez Architects ventured out to create a work of organ-ic architecture: The Red Pepper House.

Design development
One of our greatest challenges was accessibility. Lamu is located in a very remote area of Kenya; it is an is-land of limited resources; transport is conducted soley by boat dhow or don-key’s back.
The Red Pepper House was built accordingly by utilizing locally sourced elements: We had to think comprehen-sively about how to simplify construc-tion methods and stick to the very es-sence of the project.
Materials and expertise had to be local. We needed to integrate tradi-tional materials and their centuries-old applications along with 21st Century design and an environmentally sound sensibility. There it is. But only if you know where it is, will you find it.
The Red Pepper House has merged with the forest. It cannot be perceived from the sea. It is hidden. Lost. Only to be found again.
Overall, we wanted to create something we believed in, somewhere that would provide maximum, inher-ent enjoyment of being in a forest, next to a beach, on the cusp of the unique Lamu town, a UNESCO World
Heritage Site.
Ecological energy systems
In order to exploit the sunny cli-mate of Lamu, the project hosts tow solar collection devices. Solar water heaters absorb the sunlight and use the energy to heat water. The advan-tage of these solar heaters is that hot water is available on demand through-out the course of the day without neg-atively affecting the environment.
It only seems right that the same idea is incorporated in generating power and thus the project also uses photovoltaic cells to provide electricity to the house.
Like the construction process, the use of solar energy ensures that the running of the building also keeps a very low carbon footprint having mini-mal impact on the environment. The house accomodates a water tower that uses the theory of gravity to send wa-ter to the taps and showers and eradi-cates the need for a pressure pump.

Another winner from Lamu. The architect describes it as a finely crafted, uplifting and
truly civic building that respects the soul of the stressed and hurrying traveller, and
the spirit of place of the historic town near which it is set. A richly textured and poetic
alternative to the prosaic, mostly unbearable and soulless places that punctuate travel in re-
mote locations in Kenya and across the world. A true Place to Be, while you are on your way to
somewhere else.

In a desolate and harsh landscape, this project is a subtle
and thoughtful exemplar of the ability of geometry and
proportion, rhythm and repetition to order the world.
This building is an eloquent yet clipped lecture on the
beauty of tectonics, the delight of making, and a sparse-
ness of effort, materials and detail that is forward-looking
for our hot, flat and crowded planet and Kenya in the 21st
century. It is reassuring to see that almost two generations
ago, architects in Kenya were practising obviously appropri-
ate ‘green architecture’ through a deep understanding of
place, opportunity, material and people’s skills and needs.’

Yet another winner from the Coast! The

bling campus landscape, this project shows
that cultural references can be respectfully
absorbed into modern buildings without re-
sorting to cheap façade antics. This is a col-
lection of buildings that whisper instead of
shouting, and that betray a confidence of line
and detail which should result in a fine envi-
ronment for large gatherings of people once
it is built.’

Looks like if you want to win, consider the Kenyan Coast and you’ll be on the roll! Well, we will let the consultants explain for this proj-ect. Fourteen apartments, Tudor Creek Mombasa Island. Quite the
assignment for us, representing a new frontier, a new experience, a new breakthrough.
First, there was the plot, long and narrow, facing East. Then the chal-lenge of translating our contemporary Swahili style, without existing references to draw upon, to a ground-breaking highrise structure - one that would stand out beautifully on the peninsula. In light of these con-siderations, our initial threshold was to apply solutions we had used in horizontal projects to a vertical realization.
The apartments, accordingly, will benefit from the experience of out-door living, contact with nature and the integration of the surroundings into each private home.
Simultaneously, we are maximizing views over the creek. Three styles of apartment will be featured primarily with three bedrooms, each accommodated with underground parking. The Tudor Apartments will also offer splendid tower living and a penthouse.

Parliament buildings - one of the definitory icons of Nairobi’s skyline. If
you haven’t seen it, you haven’t been to Nairobi. A surprisingly confident
and skilled use of modernist line, mannerist delight and almost baroque
drama and composition, this fine civic building sets itself apart from the often
literal symbolism and ponderous expressive urges of post-colonial buildings for
the functioning of African governments. It is important to realise that a building
of such elegant forceful expression and such staying power was executed by a
very young architect of limited experience, but evidently of natural and deep-
seated skill and discretion.

INTRODUCTION
Crime Prevention though Environmental Design (CPTED) is a pro-active crime prevention strategy utilized by planners,
architects, police services, security professionals and everyday users of space. It is based on the notion that proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the incidence of crime and improve quality of life.
Safety and security in public spaces is becoming
a necessity today as terrorism becomes a reality in
the developing world. Security concerns have been
for a long time of low concern to planners, architects
and engineers making inclusion in the building
process almost unheard of or reduced to mostly fire
preparedness. The recent terrorist attack on Westgate
Mall is a wake-up call for architects and engineers to
think about how safe and secure the spaces they design
are. All discerning Kenyans have to demand crime
prevention features to be incorporated in the design of
buildings. It is against this background that information
and practice of CPTED should be encouraged with the
aim of creating safer public spaces.

PROPOSED CPTED STRATEGIES
CPTED is a global practice that
involves the design of safe built and
non-built environment especially of
public spaces that aim at deterring
crime. Emphasis is placed on the
physical environment, productive
use of space, definition of space
and proper support of the intended
function by the physical design.
CPTED strategies are based
on four main pillars: - Natural
Surveillance, Natural Access Control,
Territorial Reinforcement and
Maintenance. This paper will explore
these four principles citing examples
of how public spaces and in particular,
the Westgate Mall which suffered a
terrorist attack not a long while back,
can be made much safer.
Natural Surveillance :
This principle is based on the
notion that criminals are least likely
to act when there is a high risk of
their actions being witnessed. This
principle is based on a theory put
forward by Jane Jacobs that came to
be known as ‘Eyes on the Street’ which
ensures that activities that go on in
the streets/sidewalks can be clearly
seen from the inside of buildings.
The case of Westgate Mall is
a clear example of lack of natural
surveillance. The idea of having an
outdoor restaurant created an active
building front but the landscaping
obstructed the view of the main
entrance and parking lot. From inside
Westgate Mall there were no clear
views of the main entrance, the street/
sidewalks or the parking lot making it
easier for attackers to carry out their
activities without being watched.
The overgrown landscape obstructed
views to the outside which made the
parking lot a ‘crime hotspot’. General
rule is bushes should not be higher
than 3 feet and trees should not be
higher than 7 feet.
Territorial Reinforcement
The purpose of territorial
reinforcement is to create a clear
distinction between public ,semi-
private and private spaces. This is
important for two reasons: legitimate
occupants have a sense of ownership
and will notice people who don’t
belong; intruders, on the other
hand, will have a hard time blending
in. This principle is based on the
‘defensible space’ theory put forward
by Architect Oscar Newman which
observes that building design should
create a sense of territorialism that
encourage people to maintain and
overlook their own portion of street/
sidewalk and common areas such as
lobbies and corridors.
Natural Access Control
Criminals like to feel that they are
in control as they enter and exit an
area. When they are in control, they
have a low perception of risk, since
they believe they are able to move
about unnoticed. However, this sense
of control can be denied by limiting
and clearly marking the approaches
to buildings for both pedestrian and
vehicular traffic thereby channeling
visitors into a defined area. Natural
Access Control is the use of building
and landscaping features to guide
people as they enter and exit a space.
The number of entrances should
be minimal and should have tight
controls; Westgate Mall had a very

well defined main pedestrian entrance but
the vehicular entrances and exits were not
well defined/controlled which created a
serious security breach.
Maintenance
Many experts believe that a well
maintained property can deter crime
simply because a poorly maintained
building demonstrates that its owner is
no longer able or willing to control his
property and thus becomes an invitation
to any criminal who wants to seize control.
Maintenance should also be well informed,
Westgate Mall had very well-manicured
landscape but the bushes and trees were
maintained at heights that obstructed
surveillance. A view of Westgate before
the landscaped shop front reveals a fairly
secure building with clear surveillance.

RECOMMENDATIONS
As the restoration works begin, the
following are proposed recommendations
to ensure a safer and secure mall:-
• Windows signs should cover no more
than 10% of the window surface
• Street and/or sidewalk should
be visible from inside the
space and vice versa
• Interior furniture and displays
should be no higher than
5’ to maintain visibility
• Exterior parking lots should be
well lit, so that people can be
recognized from 25’ away
• Exterior parking lots should be
visible from inside the space
• All entrances should be visible
from within the space
• Non-working surveillance cameras
should be repaired or removed
• Interior lighting should
remain on at night
• Bushes should be no higher than 36”
• Trees should be no higher than 7
• Property lines should be well
marked by fences, short walls,
shrubbery or similar means
• Receptionist/security should be
positioned to screen all people
entering the mall for both
pedestrian and vehicular traffic
• Walkways, landscaping and
driveways should lead visitors
to a controlled entrance
• Access to the roof should
be secured with the parking
well defined and secured
• Exterior door hinges should not
be accessible from outside
• Exterior doors should be
locked with deadbolts
• Deadbolts should have a minimum
1” throw and the strike plates should
be anchored to the door frame
• All keys should be accounted for
• If keys cannot be accounted for,
locks should be re-keyed and a
key control policy instituted
• Windows should be locked
• Access to ladders should be secured
• Weeds should be removed
• Debris should be removed
from the grounds
• All lighted signs should be
in working order
• All light fixtures should be
in working order
• Access to the basement parking
should be controlled with stiffer
security measures placed
• Lighting at the basement should
be in working condition and should
not be blocked by columns
How safe is the building you are designing
now, or is it a potential death-trap in the event
of a security incident?

PIMP MY DESIGN? On Visualization, Digital Prototyping and Fabrication by Architect Dennis Karanja
The use of digital technologies
has assimilated itself exponen-
tially in the AEC professions.
Often, engineering and construc-
tion professionals have embraced
software in mid and end processes
of project delivery. Architects and
Landscapers engage these processes
as extensions of sketching, modelling
and documentation from concept to
project delivery.
We pride ourselves in turning the
intangible dreams of our clients to re-
ality. Yet often these dreams are cap-
tured in terse meetings with clients.
Prevalent technology has come in
to augment the traditional methods
of representation and communica-
tion of these dreams, from inception
to post contract management. The
proliferation of affordable computers
and powerful software have enabled
professionals to extend the bound-
aries of what can be conceived and
constructed. The advanced software
allows us to visualise, model and test
complex parametric and organic ge-
ometries. This has huge implications
for both tectonics and material use in
contemporary architecture.
Granted, the architectural visual-
izations have their portent potential,
an impact not just felt as a new genre
of expression but an entire territorial
scope. It is therefore of paramount im-
portance that the architectural indus-
try advance such techniques and craft
them to the advantage of the profes-
sion and its diverse clientele.
Still herein, it is important to note
that visualisation bears with it a per-
suasive role in selling ideas. This is
where the good, the bad and the ugly
call home and they all converge into
an element of wonder, mystery and
still within harm. The good has its
place, yet still the bad face of visual-
ization resides within.
Misrepresentation of facts as
brought forwards by stunning images
and documentation form BIM opens
up uncharted paths of litigation. In a
related instance, a subcontractor in
Nevada, USA, sued an engineer for
misrepresentation. The contractor’s
claim was that the engineer had neg-
ligently misrepresented their design
as constructible. The contrasting ar-
gument here would be that, we now
have BIM throughout design and con-
struction phases augmented with conflict
checking software, therefore, such litigation
need not arise.
Granted -a different approach is to build
on ethics of visualisation within the profes-
sion. A code of conduct would establish
quality standards and in turn build trust and
respect from the consumers of the visualisa-
tion output. When a friend approaches you
with a sales catalogue seeking advice on a
house they would like to purchase, and you
have the unfortunate role of pointing out to
the various misrepresentations, they end up
thinking one architect is as bad as the next.
If a room is three metres by three metres,
do not throw in a double bed and a seat to
confuse a client. To remedy this smoke and
mirrors approach in our profession, four key
ideals should guide our visualization. These
are accuracy, representativeness, clarity and
legitimacy. While the first three are things
we do, the last one is an outcome of the first
three.

However convenient the contrary might
be, endeavour for accuracy and truth by us-
ing visualisations to simulate the actual or ex-
pected appearance of the design intent with-
out distortion. There should be appropriate
levels of realism for the intended purpose.
Often you will not find a sales document de-
picting the real site. It usually is a concocted,
innocent and pristine neighbourhood far
from the real situation on the ground. On
the other hand depicting a Boeing 777 in
your visualisation for a villa in Nairobi’s up-
market Runda is not a sign of sophistication
but professional immaturity. Further, our
visualizations should be representative in
depicting typical or essential views of our
design intents and the landscape. Visual clar-
ity involves a clear communication of the de-
tails, components and overall content. These
contribute to legitimacy of the visualization
making our intents demonstrable and defen-
sible.
It is hoped that when we reach out for
our visualization gadgets we shall have this
in mind. Now raise your mouse and repeat
after me; I acknowledge and respect the power
of visualization to mislead the uninformed.
Therefore I shall not visualise with intention to
hide or confuse the truth.
The beauty of following the above pre-
scription is that it makes it easier to build
what we have designed. This is the fabrica-
tion stage. The fabrication process is meant
to test both the virtual model and the
physical output at different scales.
These could be rapid prototyping
and digital fabrication. These two
techniques are not new but the ap-
proaches can be aligned to those of
the manufacturing industry. When
we make a card model, we are pro-
totyping. When we ask a contractor
to build a sample wall on site, we are
fabricating. This works like a dream
for traditional architectural materials
but might be a nightmare when the
genres of expression change. What
are the solutions?
At a small office scale, a 3D printer
will work well. Although expensive,
they are worth the investment espe-
cially if you are moving away from tra-
ditional architectural approaches to
construction and materials. 3-D print-
ing can be used to test new designs,
materials and building techniques. In-
deed there are open source 3D printer
D-I-Y kits at the price of a medium
sized plotter. Besides, 3D printers
work with most parametric model-
ling software, including Adobe Photo-
shop. 3D printing and CNC (Computer
Numerical Control) milling are ‘revers-
ible’ processes. The artefact produced
can be scanned using a 3-D scanner
or digitizer and the parameters input
back for further design. The possibili-
ties suddenly become limitless.
Of course you will not ‘print’ your
dream house in the office-not yet, but
with a bit of patience and the right ma-
terials you will with time. The next op-
tion would be to fabricate either your
entire design intent or component in
a factory of lab setting. A few manu-
facturers locally have the capacity to
fabricate most of what is demanded in
the new expression. The only problem
is the numbers do not make economic
sense as almost everyone will not be
looking at the expressive building you
have in mind but the return on invest-
ment on their CNC mills.
What implications do robotics
such as 3D printing and CNC milling
have for architecture? First would
be precision in building lifecycle- no
need for snagging and protracted
arguments with contractors on site,
conducting destructive tests and so
on. It also means you spend more
time on the design end with better
outcomes. Secondly, you can expend
more creative juices in experimenting
- you actually learn by doing-in your
office, not on site at the cost of your
client. Thirdly, this means the architect
will be a ‘master-builder’ again; an ar-
chitect’s office will again be a work-
shop of creation, and no longer look
like a sterile recruitment agency.
Depicting a Boeing 777 in your visualisation for a villa in Nairobi’s up-market Runda is not a sign of sophistication
but professional immaturity.
