Deutsche Welle Features ID+EA Studio and Projects

Deutsche Welle

Deutsche Welle (DW) visited the ID+EA studio in Dakar and featured the firm's work in a special segment. Fatiya Diene Mazza shared her architectural philosophy: "For me, architecture is not about labels or trends. It is about responsibility. Responsibility to place, to people, and to the cities we help shape. Over the years, our practice has had the privilege of working on projects that engage the city at different scales, from civic infrastructure to institutional and office buildings. Each project begins with the same question: how can architecture respond intelligently to its context while remaining deeply human? Architecture is ultimately measured by what remains standing in the city long after the narratives fade."
