3AAP

3AAP interior fit-out in progress: a tall white room under an exposed concrete ceiling and steel trusses, a worker standing on a makeshift plywood bench to fix a run of yellow overhead cabinets, black base units along the right wall and an open door to the courtyard at the far end

A workspace fit-out RDVS Studios designed and built for Impact Hub Accra, completed in December 2019.

The studio’s record of 3AAP is the site record: the main room photographed mid-installation, first in daylight and again after dark, with the yellow wall cabinets going in above black base units along both walls of a tall, white, concrete-ceilinged space.

The fitted furniture was designed and made by MIG, the studio’s furniture line, and the photographs were taken on site as the installation went in.

3AAP was never written up as a full case study — the studio’s own caption ended with “More about this project soon” — so this page carries the four frames that were published at the time, and nothing beyond them.

Interior fit-out

The main room on two consecutive days, as the cabinetry went in

3AAP — the same room after dark under fluorescent battens: the yellow overhead cabinets now running the length of both walls above their black base units, a worker crouched at the right-hand counter, the makeshift benches still standing in the middle of the floor

The building

Exteriors from the side passage and the yard, painted in the same white, yellow and grey

3AAP — the side passage between the building and a stone boundary wall: black doors and louvres set into white render banded with yellow and grey, air-conditioning units mounted low on the wall, a bucket and fresh paving in the foreground
3AAP — the corner of the building from the yard: a yellow ground floor, white banding and a grey upper volume, with dark-framed glazing wrapping the corner and a neighbouring house beyond the boundary wall
