BAT RISING SUN

LAGOS – NIGERIA

BAT RISING SUN

Built to be a “grade A” office space, the new headquarter of the British American Tobacco, the Bat Rising Sun is a 13 story mixed use tower (offices and accomodation). The special aesthetic view, that well represents the Nigerian Site of the multinational tobacco company, has been obtained thanks to the use of enamelled colored glass panes. The project has been realized drawing on the experience of Capita Symonds, the prestigious London Study of Architecture and on the local multidisciplinary talent of Ecad Architects.
