The hand behind the work

An architect trained in France at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture in Paris and registered with the National Order of Architects of Cameroon under number 88, she founded her practice in Douala.

For more than thirty years, mainly in Cameroon, she has led building operations in urban and rural settings, applying the architectural process from design through to site supervision, in areas that have become genuine fields of competence.

Her work goes beyond commissions: architecture and design juries, mentoring students, publishing. Her book “Suites architecturales” came out in 2010, between Kinshasa, Douala and Dakar.

« Listening to and understanding the client remains our central concern, followed by support all the way to handover. »
