Just look at this dime piece.

The cement and white paint is classic ancient Somali meets modern minimalist.

Look at the cute Gambar in the corner.



Ladies we will build some homes like this for you since you make 80% of the purchasing decisions and your husbands can’t tell the difference between a jackhammer and a telephone

You just need a Somali architecture firm to issue the drawings and survey they ground for stability. The other option is to get the drawing from India directly and just follow them on the ground.

I worked in construction and it’s a hobby of mine to learn how to build homes. Once you get the drawing it’s over; everyone else comes easy with the right team.


White concrete with minimalist lines like this is more practical and cheap. It also flows with the ancient homes of Somalia as they were always white.


It’s a balance old and new.

So simple and yet so beautiful. Niyohow the Somali people backhome eyes need to be opened and they need to stop constructing eyesore houses.

There needs to be a YouTube channel on design.

The Ciyaal Kacaan are importing LEGO mania homes that aren practice. Have you seen the fucking Crown molding on the ceilings? It’s never flush

This is classic Cushitic decor.

I swear the bohemian designs are cultural appropriation. It’s time we take it back.

@bobol We need to take this guys recipe for this stucco and it will revolutionize safety in Somali homes.

It turns concrete into bullet/blast proof coatings.

This is needed for gated homes in Xamaar

Beautiful. There needs to be more Somalis going into Architecture and Design. They could open up their own firms and make a killing.

This is the greatest time to be Somali.

It's not about who makes a killing since there's more untapped opportunities than somalis know what to do with.

Design culture in Somalia is being covered by the Ciyaal Kacaan. Their mindset reflects the landscape

This firm just opened the door of creativity. The homes here are a copy of homes in Dubai.

What we need is homes that can take inspiration from the ancient homes of xamaar, merca and bosasso and give them a modern twist.

See how the stone is added to facade of the home with concrete around it?
