Design Indaba alumnus and Pritzker Prize-winning Burkinabè architect Francis Kéré has shared plans for Biblioteca dos Saberes, Kéré Architecture’s first built project in South America. Conceived as both a library and civic cultural hub, the project celebrates Afro-Brazilian heritage, indigenous knowledge systems and the collective spirit embedded within Rio de Janeiro’s samba culture.
