"If these walls could talk theyโd share stories of a royal visit from Queen Elizabeth in 1965, a painstaking labour of love by Italian stained-glass artists and the 500 pieces of (now-restored) custom-made furniture that form a perfect time capsule. Over 50 years later, the building required significant intervention that would ultimately lead to a decade-long investment to restore the building."- Architectus

What a historic moment today held at #UNECA celebrating the successful completion of the renovation (2017-24) of the #Africanhall that was realised between 1959-61 in #AddisAbeba. It's always great to see a proper appreciation & celebration of the incredible efforts HIM Emperor Haile Selassie & his favourite architect, Arturo Mezzedimi, put on one of the most important buildings in #Africa. Prominent figures including Ras Mengesha Seyoum, great-grandson of Arturo, Marcelo Mezzedimi, & academicians from different parts of the globe attended the event followed by the launch of a state-of-the-art book on the building!

Historical spaces are always contested - The renovation of #AfricaHall is a great example of how to upgrade and replace materials while preserving its intangible qualities.
The extensive research & documentation undertaken as part of the renovation of Africa Hall shows us the power of drawings and the professional commitment of architects, designers and restorers.
