AYAME

Nestled in Ayamé, three hours from Abidjan, stands an architectural gem. This African Château de Versailles, with its elegant French-style gardens, sits atop a hill, surrounded by lush forests and overlooking a serene artificial lake.

Our mission is to reimagine this palace as a vibrant artist residency, a creative sanctuary that will host artists from Côte d'Ivoire, the diaspora, and around the world. The space will feature a restaurant, a bookstore, an art gallery, and dedicated workshops, fostering a unique environment for artistic expression and collaboration.

Our role in this transformation encompasses defining the concept, overseeing the spatial vision, curating the scenography, designing the layout, and ensuring seamless site coordination and supervision. Through this project, we aim to create an inspiring retreat where creativity thrives, history meets modernity, and culture takes center stage.
