#AfricaHall has won its first international award at the 2025 Chicago Athenaeum in the #restoration/#renovation category.
Originally designed by Arturo Mezzèdimi, The United Nations Economic Commission for Africa officially opened in 1961, but over 50 years later the building required significant intervention that would ultimately lead to a decade-long investment to restore the building.
The modernist masterpiece was tasked with the aspirational goal of bringing unity to Africa – on behalf of our heritage team, it was a privilege to restore this cultural landmark.

Carlo Ratti shapes a Grand #Fendika, a cultural heart in Addis Abeba, where walls breathe stories and the open air becomes a stage.
“We took inspiration from the way Fendika has been naturally engaging with the city around it. Our design reflects this openness, creating a building that blends the boundaries between outside and inside; it encourages interaction and invites the energy of Addis Abeba in. - Carlo Ratti, founding partner of CRA-Carlo Ratti Associatti“

Project: Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam
Client: Ethiopian Electric Power (#EEP)
Location: 700 km north-west of the capital Addis Abeba, about 14 km from the border between Ethiopia and #Sudan, in the #Benishangul_Gumuz region along the #BlueNile.
Size: Largest hydropower project in Africa, and one of worlds top 10.
Engineering dimensions: 1,800 m long, 170 m high (main gravity dam) and with a total rolled compacted concrete (#RCC) volume of 10.7 million m³. RCC is a particular mix of concrete with low cement and water content, very dry and the mix characterized by extended setting times and superior mechanical performance.
Reservoir: surface area of 1,875 km2 and a volume of 74 billion m³. It collects rainwater and river water and channels it to the #maindam; the average annual outflow is estimated at around 50 billion m³ of water.
