the Warka Village
Willie Schumann
Democratic Republic of the Congo
The Bagyeli Pygmies live in social structures in the Congo Basin rainforest. But because of commercial and political interest in Cameroon more and more of the forest is lost and thus their natural habitat and livelyhood is marginalized. Concerned by this, Italian architect Arturo Vittori is building the Warka Village, that could be a model for reintegration into the forest. He only uses materials from the forest and created an architecture that is inspired by traditional Bagyeli traditions and the harmony with the forest and its people.
