🌟 Grand Fendika Cultural Center 🌟

📍 Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Fendika, the last azmari bet in Kazanchis, is getting a vibrant new home! Designed by Carlo Ratti Associati with founder Melaku Belay, the Grand Fendika blends culture & community.

✨ Features:
• Open design with street-facing windows, inviting passersby
• Mixes cultural venue (performance halls, studios, café) with a hotel
• Sloping stair-ramp connects 4 levels to a rooftop terrace

🏛️ Supported by TrustAfrica & Addis Ababa’s Mayor, Fendika will preserve Ethiopia’s azmari traditions. After losing its site in 2024, it’s now rebuilding with your help!
