To finish the design direction of the
Adakpame Guesthouse as a place that echoes the ubiquitous gathering spaces that can be found all over Lomé’s bustling street life, the building's doors were custom-made in collaboration with carpenters.
Drawing its visual inspiration from the screens that serve as easily adjustable walls for small neighbourhood bars and eateries, these doors tie the tranquil courtyard of the Adakpame Guesthouse to the urban environment beyond its gate. It speaks to the city it sits in and thus stays in dialogue with it.
