The project involved the remodelling of an existing five bedroom residential duplex that was over thirty two years old. Located in Garki, one of the first districts developed in Abuja, the structure is among the earliest residential buildings constructed in the area.
The client’s intention was not to demolish or radically alter the building, but to retain it as a five bedroom duplex while transforming it into something entirely new. The brief was to take an aging residential structure, one that had become a relic of the city’s early development, and reimagine it as a modern home that could stand confidently within today’s Abuja.
Key requirements included full home automation, ample parking space, and a complete upgrade of the building’s functionality and presence, while respecting its original form and context.
