French-registered architect (DPLG) who was trained in France and set up her own practice in Douala (Cameroon) in 1989. Her work in various fields (service, industry, equipment and lodging) reveals an architectural approach in which creativity blends with realism. Her keen eye has followed the changes in African architecture and she wants to share her knowledge, garnered from many years of experience, about the current state of the building industry on this continent. Founder of the collection Of architecture & Africa, these are some of her thoughts.
