ola33t: I must say u have taste. People are busy commenting about how beautiful the structure is. Sometimes I wonder why we like mediocre structures. Or regular uninspiring structures. Just look at how over imposing the front is. And thise white and black squares are not neat. All the same kudos to the owner for making his university one of the best in the country. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Our standards are terribly low in this country. Our designers are not creative. Sadly, our youths and citizens praises anything they see that are better than what they had seen before. Honestly, as someone earlier pointed out, the facade is just too dull. Typical Nigeria architecture. See the surrounding landscape, no creativity. Call a good Arab or European designers with fewer costs, they will put up a better aesthetically appealing edifice. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Focusmind: Depends on how far back they go for what they have seen before. The buildings before 1970 were not as bad, architecturally, as what we have since then. 2 Likes |

ola33t: I agree. The building looks like those modern shopping malls you'd find in Milan. We hear of Greek architecture, Italian Architecture, Dutch design, etc. Can't we also have Nigerian architecture? And where else to reflect this than the university buildings? At least, draw inspiration from the Palaces of the Shehu of Borno or Sultan of Sokoto, and that should force Nigerian architecture to be a course of study in foreign countries. 2 Likes |

A building doesn't have to be 'fine' to be an architecture masterpiece. From this building nickname 'white rock', there's an undertone to its design. This is why it is compact and daunting in its own little way, hence the building shape/form and small pocket of windows on its facade. It's more of an architecture typology called brutalist architecture. Similar examples are Guggenheim Museum Bilbao and Notre Dame Chapel. The building types are more like artistic sculpture. 2 Likes 1 Share |
