BUILDING: Nissan Motorcare
LOCATION: Jinja Road, Kampala
ARCHITECT: FBW Architects & Engineers
WHAT’S GOOD ABOUT IT: This carefully designed showroom building features a large timber/glass façade which slightly tilts against the visitor and a sloping floor – the whole building literally is a ramp. It does so not only for the sake of a nice architectural effect; it actually seems highly functional because it gives a pedestrian a sort of an ‘aerial view’ on the cars exhibited inside. Beautiful.
ANYTHING ELSE: One of Kampala’s early buildings to feature the Kabira Stone.

It is my great dream to blog about crossword puzzles in every English-speaking country. Where do people in Kampala go when they want to do a crossword puzzle?
