纽约的Toshiko Mori工作室为塞内加尔的Sinthian村设计了这个生态文化中心。它还是一个艺术化住宅。Toshiko Mori工作室与非盈利性组织Sinthian医疗中心和AFLK在设计和建造过程中都进行了合作。从石匠、工人到建筑材料竹子、砖瓦和茅草，一切都就地取材。Toshiko Mori将村民和石匠对于材料的理解与创新的技术结合起来，从而建造了独特的茅草屋顶。

几何状的屋顶是此文化中心的要点，其倾斜的角度形成了一个雨水收集系统。雨水留入附近的水槽中，为居民提供了一种触手可及的水源并减少了污染。设计的灵活性表现在了空间的组织上，建筑四边都是工作室，中间则是公共区域。这里通风条件很好，远离雨水和烈日的入侵。对当地人来说，这里会是一个很好的集市地、表演场所以及社区聚会点。

New York-based studio Toshiko Mori has designed the ecological thread cultural center for the village of Sinthian in Senegal. Serving also as an artist residency, the architecture practice has collaborated with the non-profit organizations Sinthian medical center and AFLK in both design and construction. Keeping everything local, from the masons, workers and materials, the building is comprised of bamboo, brick and thatch - all of which are sourced from the area. Toshiko Mori has combined the villagers’ and masons’ understanding of the materials to come up with an innovative method for the fabrication of the distinctive, thatch roof.

The geometric roof is the focal point of the cultural center, with a steep, sloping angle that allows for a water harvesting system. Rainwater would flow off and be diverted into nearby basins providing residents with an accessible water supply, and reducing the risk of contamination. The flexibility in its design is applied in the organization of the spaces, with studios on each side of the complex and a communal area in between. Open air, yet shielded from the rain and intense summer heat, this space would potentially be used for local market, performances and community meetings.
