Olajumoke Olufunmilola Adenowo

Nigerian architect and author

Olajumoke Olufunmilola Adenowo belongs to the record of architecture as a figure whose buildings outlasted the taste that commissioned them.

The record lists Olajumoke Olufunmilola Adenowo as Nigerian architect and author.

Olajumoke Olufunmilola Adenowo was born at Ibadan in 1968. Her recorded nationality is Nigeria. She trained at Obafemi Awolowo University and John F. Kennedy School of Government.

Contemporary practice is global, computational and preoccupied with energy: the profession's central question is now what a building costs the climate.

She is recorded as architect, writer and entrepreneur.

Architecture is the art that cannot be avoided: people live inside the argument.

That the work was built in Nigeria shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.
