CITYSKIM - A visual fly through the surface of a city with some key facts that frame the city's current status and it's projected growth.

In the panel discussion held at the Ethiopian Association of Ethiopian Architects 18th Convention in Addis Ababa titled the 'Architects Role in Society' Amanuel Teshome challenged his peers "What would fellow architects who arrived in our city think of the architecture we are designing as they drove through our city?" The CITYSKIM of Addis Ababa gives you that view along with some key facts about the city, it's current growth rate and it's projected growth rate.

The rapid development of African cities and the design response to increased urbanisation is an opportunity for architectural professionals in Africa to make their mark on the future. We will be adding further CITYSKIMS of African cities on our site to visualize the impact of this crossroads of growth, development funding and architectural design.
