We start every building by watching the light

Studio Àṣà is an architecture practice in Lagos. Before we draw a wall, we study how sun, rain and breeze move across your site through the year. The result is homes that stay cool without running the AC all day.

Founded in 2014, we're a team of eleven architects, interior designers and one very patient model maker. We work across Nigeria and Ghana.

Deep overhangs

Roofs that reach out far enough to keep the midday sun off your walls and windows.

Cross breeze

Rooms one window deep, so air moves straight through the house from the lagoon side.

A garden at the centre

Every plan opens onto a shaded courtyard that cools the air before it reaches you.

Tell us about your site

We take on six new homes a year. Send us the location, your rough budget and how you live, and we'll arrange a visit.
