What Archibuilt Expo 2025 revealed is clear: Nigeria’s built environment is entering a phase where quality can no longer be optional. 🚽From plumbing systems to site supervision, this year’s conversations highlighted the urgent need for better technical training, stronger collaboration, and higher execution standards across the industry. Here are the key takeaways 👇🏽 🔧 Building services matter ➡️ Substandard plumbing and MEP work remain major causes of building failure. 📚 Specialised training is rising ➡️ Professionals are seeking certifications in HVAC, plumbing, fire safety, and more. 🤝 Academia–industry collaboration is crucial ➡️ Theory must meet real-world site requirements. 🛠️ Local innovation is accelerating ➡️ More Nigerian-made materials and technologies are emerging. 🏗️ Integrated teams are the future ➡️ Firms with in-house architects, engineers, and QSs deliver more consistent, better-coordinated projects. It’s an exciting time for Nigeria’s built environment — and a defining moment for firms committed to raising national standards. 🔗 Read the full article below⬇️ #Archibuilt2025 #BuiltEnvironmentNG #NigeriaConstruction #ArchitectureInNigeria #ConstructionStandards #DesignBuild #NIA #BuildingQuality #AECIndustry #GreyBoulders #Architecture #Plumbing

✨Moments from AMPLIFY✨ Expressive Architecture & Design Identity Welcome back to this week's session of AMPLIFY. We're discussing Expressive and Recognisable Architecture, focusing on the renowned Zaha Hadid Architects and how their unique design identity can influence our style. 1️⃣Geometry Shapes Emotion Architecture communicates feeling before function. Curves, angles, and bold forms all create emotional resonance and recognisability. 2️⃣ZHA: More Than Curves Jinghe Culture & Art Centre, London Aquatics Centre, and Heydar Aliyev Centre show a consistent design DNA. Continuity, fluidity, elegant interiors, and sculptural massing form their true signature. 3️⃣Iconic Geometry Across the World Gehry’s Guggenheim Bilbao, Utzon’s Sydney Opera House, and Pei’s Louvre Pyramid demonstrate how strong geometry becomes brand identity. 4️⃣GreyBoulders’ Emerging Design DNA Bold façades, defined edges, chamfers, and textured surfaces. Distinct forms that stand out while still responding to client needs. Even our varied projects share the GreyBoulders' “energy”. 5️⃣Building a Signature Takes Time Every leading firm’s style evolved over the years of projects and refinement. GreyBoulders is already on that journey — developing a recognisable, expressive architectural identity. #Greyboulders #Amplify #Architecture #Discussion #Design #Presentation
