ABOUT US

Although the context and the constraints remain the same, views towards a single architectural project will amazingly find unlimited responses. It’s all about one’s sensitivity, interpretation and creativity..

There are infinite ways to design…

RAW DESIGN was founded in 2018 by Architect Huguette Adege RUZIBIZA on the basis of a vision understandably infused with her multicultural afro background as well as her humanitarian and contextual beliefs of architecture.

Operating between Abidjan and Kigali, it’s in a constant dialogue with the environment (notably the specificity of african developing countries) that RAW DESIGN approaches the various projects entrusted to it (residential homes, commercial and industrial buildings, corporate headquarters, constructions for non-profit, institutional and educational clients, conservation of architectural heritages and sites…)

With a young and dynamic team successfully focused on addressing spaces constraints and social pressures while allying modernism and tradition, the firm is growing its number of repeat clients and trusting relationships and is increasingly heading towards its founder dream of contributing to a respectful, sustainable and inclusive valorisation of African landscapes.
