04 / Your questions

Before we begin.

How do I brief an architect in Zeila?

Describe how you live and use the house: room sizes, light, storage, the entry and how the house sits on the plot, plus the plot dimensions and orientation.

What should I consider when planning a house in Zeila?

Zeila is a hot coastal town on the Gulf of Aden near the Djibouti border. The coastal salt and heat point to corrosion-resistant hardware and finishes, with the nearby border as a supply option.

Why does the brief matter?
