Summary:
A new council office, designed by Squire and Partners, opened in Nairobi in November 2004. The design utilises the local climate and orientation to passively control the building’s environment and has evolved from Squire and Partners’ ethos of contextual modernism. The practice works hard with site locations, aspect and orientation to develop proposals that are both appropriate and culturally of their 'place’. The design responds specifically to both the culture of the British council in East Africa and the site context of central Nairobi to create a dramatic, beautiful space. The British Council’s Visual Arts Department commissioned a site specific work for the new building from artist David Tremlett who was invited to contribute wall drawings to the front and back elevations and to the main corridors leading to the teaching areas within the building. The drawings of rubbed pigment and varnish highlight accentuate the flat planes of the building and the colours harmonise with the vibrant richness of the Kenyan soil, vegetation and sky.
