The project is based on an exploration of classical proportions to create a simple and repetative structure that is based around the available pre-configured metal doors of 2000mm x 2000mm that are widely fabricated in Gambia.

The timber members (ignored by the builder) were created as attachment points for a future pergola that could be fitted ones the structure is erected. The proportions of the building are based on the Fibonacci sequence with these input parameters; 400, 800, 1200, 2000, 3200, 5200...
