RMJM’s first projects in Africa were in Nigeria in the early 1960s. Commissioned by the Nigerian Government, RMJM developed a design standard for schools and later universities across the country. The project resulted in the construction of over 100 schools.
Today, RMJM East Africa & Botswana have licenses in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Botswana. The highly experienced design team have established a comprehensive practice in sustainable, innovative design and a distinct knowledge of local markets.
Designs such as the Hill Towers complex in Uganda’s capital Kampala City highlight the firm’s creative potential, while the Sheheena Apartments of Mombasa, Kenya, showcase the firm’s pioneering residential designs. Recently the studio worked in collaboration with RMJM Brazil to design the BIUST Library in Palapye, Botswana. Working in collaboration with other RMJM studios across the world RMJM East Africa & Botswana are equipped for large-scale projects in a range of sectors, allowing the firm to further develop the portfolio across the continent.
