Not just in the “Oil City” but in the whole of Ghana, as the moves towards an education-driven nation.
Tanko’s work is a beautiful concept that expresses architectural design through the use of modern designs but the use of traditional tools to give it a perfect mix of the old and new, making it a classic.
The unique library model depicts a ‘cute’ looking building with a beautiful wooden interface, which makes it an amazing experience to use this academic facility.
Aziz Tanko seeks to use this structure to boost literacy in the Region that made him who he is today.
It is his dream to be a household name in the Architecture space in few years and make Ghana proud.
