Architect KunlĂ© Adeyemi tells the story of why and how he came to design and build Makoko Floating School in Lagos, how he was inspired by the attitude of the slum’s residents, and how he hopes his structure will act as a prototype for dealing with housing shortages and the impact of climate change – a kind of ‘urbanism on water’
