KIPEPEO HOUSE

Intro

Kipepeo is a Swahili word meaning butterfly. A butterfly flies free after it has been nurtured within the safety of a cocoon protected from the ravages of the outside world. This description of a butterfly from google describes Kipepeo house for what it visually is. Located in Malindi Bay, at the mouth of the Galana River, lying on the Indian Ocean coast of Kenya is Malindi town. It is 120 kilometres northeast of Mombasa. A multicultural and strategic centre known for trading and skilled craftsmen, it is characterised by a savanna tropical climate and laid-back atmosphere, fresh seafood, pristine beaches, and Swahili-inspired architecture. Kipepeo house, their intervention zone, is situated in the mainland, which is a privileged location in the town. The architect worked with the owner to create a building with minimal environmental impact, by adapting to the land's natural slope, and by using locally available materials and know-how. Kipepeo is a development that prides itself in its innovative architecture, showing its attachment to the Kenyan Coast by borrowing inspiration from the rich Swahili design. The house is committed to harmonising the past, present and future.

Once the functional disposition of the house was determined - an investigation on the building skin ensued. The in-depth research involved the understanding of: Swahili ventilation techniques; closing systems of lattices; in and out spaces; use of local materials; privacy gradient; climate control and highlights of view towards the main land. The outer shell of the house was designed following a study of the butterfly's shape. It serves for the privacy in relation to the surroundings, and for the filtered, natural light they wanted for the house. Sometimes there's a direct limit of the internal house spaces, the shell is at other times a first filter of sunlight and heat, doubled by internal handcrafted wood-lattice shutters. In this way, light is generous and heat is broken down.

The interior consists of edges and openings; transitional spaces; spatial layers; courtyards; surprise and delight; materiality; light and shadow. This was done after analysis of the site and research of Swahili cultural heritage. In addition to white plaster finishing, the project used mtomo finish, a coral stone cladding technique original to Lamu that helps keep thermal capacity thanks to the porosity of the coral stone. Wood work was realised entirely thanks to outstanding hand carvings by local artisans from Malindi and Lamu. Furthermore, artisans produced in-situ terrazzo for the flooring of the patio house.

The furniture is characterised by Malindi's extraordinary and unforgettable woodcarving which is not only an art form, but also an important source of income. The most popular items include doors, headboards, chairs, chests and tables. Lamu's carved doors are large and impressive and give status to the owner. Woodcarving was first introduced by Hindu craftsmen, who were careful to only use floral designs so as not to offend their Swahili or Arab patrons whose strong Islamic beliefs prohibit the making of images and idols. Besides its magnificent carved doors, it also consists of the high-backed chair, the kiti cha enzi (literally ''chair of power'' commonly referred to as kiwi cha mpingo, the ''ebony chair''). It is striking for its angular design and hard wood (often ebony), elaborate string panels, delicate ivory or bone inlay. The kiti cha mpingo is now considered a collector's item. Beautifully carved beds are prized prestige items that have been used in the Interior as well. Most of the styles seem to have been adopted from India, and include the pili pili and samadari beds. These turned wood and lacquered beds were very fashionable, but have slowly given way to modern furniture. The older homes of the island and Lamu Museum showcase some of these more intricate styles. Coffee tables and lighting fixtures have been replaced by wooden chests ornately decorated with brass, often referred to as ''Zanzibari chests'' which were once highly prized among Lamu's wealthy inhabitants. Smaller ones were used to keep clothes. Also, included are mats and lighting fixtures made of woven palm fond.

Next time you visit Malindi, be sure to book your stay at Kipepeo house if you're looking to have that homey vibe with a Modern Swahili touch. ;)

The wandering architect, creativity in every exploration...
