Black Females in Architecture Is Increasing Visibility of Black Women in the Industry
A few months back, we included Black Females In Architecture (BFA) in our resources for organizations that are uplifting Black voices in design and architecture. BFA is a network and enterprise founded to increase the visibility of Black and Black mixed heritage females within the architectural industry and other built environment fields and actively address issues of inequality and diversity within the industry.
To find out more about the impact BFA and its members are having on the industry, we spoke to one of the organization’s members, Eniola Sonusi. Learn more about BFA and check out its Instagram!
Architect Eniola Sonusi
Can you briefly describe your work" What type of impact do you hope it has"
As a young professional, I have been fortunate to work on many exciting schemes in London, UK, and Lagos, Nigeria. I have worked across various sectors including aviation, arts and culture, commercial and residential. However, I have developed a keen interest for placemaking, humanitarian design and the socio-economic advantages of embracing vernacular architecture. At the core of this, the underlying theme is a desire to help people live a more rewarding, sustainable and balanced life. What?s been one of your most rewarding experiences with the BFA"
The most rewarding thing about BFA is connecting with other women who look like me and share similar experiences. The world of architecture can be very lonely as a Black female and it?s nice to know that there...
