an exciting opportunity that aligns with my passion for fostering creativity and cultural

appreciation through architecture. Here is a brief that contains the required elements:

WHY DO I WANT TO DO THE PROJECT

provide learning opportunities. An art gallery provides the perfect platform to showcase

artistic talent, educate visitors, and stimulate a sense of wonder and imagination. By

designing an art gallery for Federal Polytechnic Ado Ekiti, I hope to contribute to the

enrichment of the local community by providing a space for artistic expression, cultural

exchange, and creative exploration.

WHY AM I DOING IT FOR THE CLIENT

I am undertaking this project for Federal Polytechnic Ado Ekiti because I believe in the

importance of integrating art and education. By creating an art gallery for the institution, I

aim to support its mission of providing a holistic educational experience for its students and

the broader community. The art gallery will serve as a cultural and educational resource,

fostering an environment where creativity, innovation, and critical thinking can thrive. I see

and contribute to the cultural landscape of Ado Ekiti.

In Ado Ekiti, the location of Federal Polytechnic Ado Ekiti, is a vibrant and culturally rich

city with a growing interest in the arts. By situating the art gallery within the institution, I aim

gallery will not only serve the students and faculty but also engage with the wider

community, offering a platform for local artists to exhibit their work and for residents to

experience diverse forms of art. Additionally, locating the art gallery within the polytechnic

campus can facilitate integration with the academic curriculum, providing students with

PROPOSED YOUTH DEVELOPMENT CENTER FOR EKITI STATE

GOVERNMENT AT ERINMOPE EKITI, EKITI STATE.

Creating a youth development center for the Ekiti State Government in Erinmope Ekiti, a

rural area of Ekiti State, Nigeria, presents an opportunity to contribute to the social and

educational growth of the local community. Here is a brief that addresses the required

elements:

WHY DO I WANT TO DO THE PROJECT

I am passionate about using architecture as a tool for positive social change, particularly in

underserved communities. Establishing a youth development center in Erinmope Ekiti aligns

with my vision to create spaces that empower and support the younger generation. By

providing a dedicated facility for youth programs and services, I hope to foster a sense of

community, offer educational and vocational resources, and facilitate personal and

professional development for the youth in this rural area. I see this project as a way to make a

meaningful impact on the lives of young people and contribute to the overall well-being of

the community.

WHY AM I DOING IT FOR THE CLIENT

Undertaking this project for the Ekiti State Government allows me to collaborate with a key

stakeholder in the development and empowerment of youth in the region. The youth

development center will serve as a testament to the government's commitment to investing in

the future of its youth population. By creating a purpose-built facility that caters to the

specific needs of the community, I aim to support the client's goal of promoting education,

skills development, and community engagement among the youth in Erinmope Ekiti. This

6
project offers an opportunity to align with the client's vision and contribute to their efforts in

addressing the needs of rural youth.

WHY DID I CHOOSE THE LOCATION

Selecting Erinmope Ekiti as the location for the youth development center is driven by a

desire to address the unique challenges and opportunities present in rural communities. By

situating the center in this rural area, I aim to bridge the gap in access to educational and

developmental resources for the youth. The location choice reflects a commitment to

decentralize opportunities and infrastructure, ensuring that young people in rural areas have

equitable access to programs and services that can enhance their personal and professional

growth. Additionally, by integrating the center into the fabric of the local community, it can

serve as a hub for social interaction, learning, and skill-building, contributing to the overall

resilience and vibrancy of Erinmope Ekiti.
