Counterspace
"Counterspace is an architectural practice dedicated to articulating expressions of hybrid identities and spaces, with a focus on African and Islamic conditions that are both indigenous and diasporic. The practice is lauded for its innovative design, research, and educational pursuits. Led by Sumayya Vally, its unique design methodology is forensic in nature, leveraging the oral, aural, ritual, and often overlooked elements as fertile grounds for historical exploration and creative output."
