Located in Accra, Ghana, the project is the second phase of the Villaggio complex for Ghanaian developer Trasacco Estates Development Co. It consists of approximately 38,500sqm of predominately residential accommodation, a small commercial office as well as ground floor retail/restaurant and gym. As AHMM’s first project in Africa, it will be a landmark development for the client and unique not just in Ghana but within the West African region.

The buildings share a common architectural language and materiality, but are subtly differentiated from each other through use of colour. There are two fundamentally different façade treatments, one essentially planar and coloured the other highly modelled and monochromatic.
