Abstract

African countries had unique ways of building structures before colonization.This study looks at the effect of regional expression on hospital architecture.Thus, considering how to use the resources available in that area to design and build a hospital that will be accommodating, physically sound, and provide patients with a sense of belonging and a peaceful environment, all while reflecting the region's culture.The ability of an ethnic group to express their cultural values through architecture raises the possibility that architectural forms and human self-awareness are linked. As a result, the social activity of construction leaves a cultural legacy. To gather information, the study will use the case technique in conjunction with non-participant observation.The research will also conduct a comprehensive literature review to investigate the relationship between regional expression and architecture, and documentary analysis will be used to evaluate the review.
