    Civic Centre Oyo, Evolving A Cultural Revival Through Architecture
    (Bells University of Technology, 2019-05-12) ADEBIMPE, Mubarak Abiodun; Dr (Arc.) O.Fakolade
    Community life is closely connected with an understanding of relaxation with the urge for another vitalizing influence, beside the job and the family - an influence capable of expanding man's narrow private existence. Community spaces play an important role in the success of a city and its inhabitants. They become the foundation to which those living and visiting in the area come together and communicate. No great civilization has existed which has not fulfilled man's irrepressible longing for institution where such broader life can develop. Catering to the human needs of a community - physical, psychological, whatever - is an important aspect that needs to be focused on in the country. If places are indeed a fundamental aspect of existence in the world, if they are source of security and identity for individuals and for groups of people, then it is important that the means of experiencing, creating, and maintaining significant places are not lost. It is common knowledge in most if not all Nigerian towns, no conscious and determined effort has been made in providing the citizens a civic facility capable of generating a belonging in them, the situation is not different in Oyo town. This thesis examines the need for a civic center as a control point and natural rendezvous for citizens and as the same time to revive the disappearing cultural identity and the weak connection between the culture and its people
