Affoue Kouame #12

The colonial house, being placed under the sun sign, must protect itself from heat, due to high humidity, while opening to the air which cools and purifies. The origin of the colonial house is the bungalow, low house built on a base surrounded by a gallery and wearing a high roof with four slopes, type of dwelling on the coasts of Bengal. I have visited the place and it still look amazing but not like before. I also think that people back in the day were very creatives with a little material.
