Schematic design and a master plan for a developer's new community in Ghana's Volta Region: 1,500 detached homes, a 100-home luxury enclave, four EV factories and a civic core.

Land, a program list, an architect already engaged, a fee-timing worry and a capital raise still ahead.

Problem

Who pays and who builds answered before how it looks; a building system suited to termites, humidity and flood; local crews.

What we did

Building system and crew training inside the design scope; the site questions before drawing; the master plan, the story and the buildable system beside the developer's architect.

Result

Proposal submitted, unsigned; concept direction delivered; the developer is raising capital.

Before you draw a place, name who pays for it and who builds it. If the plan does not answer both, it is a rendering, however good the rendering is.Jesse Fowler
