One of my single most passionate and life affirming roles is Director at Northrup Drummond, I was wondering how could I use my wealth to improve the lives of others and I came up with the idea of investment funds, investment funds which develop entire nations, build new cities, towns and or fund major investment or development projects which are not only aesthetically pleasing but also benefit the lives of people who use and visit them.
There are two initial investment funds which act as conditions or will allow us to perfect the prcoess before funds are rolled out around the world, the first will be in Palestine rebuilding and master planning the country with it’s youth very much in mind, the second area to be master planned will be Lagos, in Nigeria, more information can be found at northrupd.com/news
Architecture is not owned by anybody it’s free to use intellectual property, and good architecture or beauiful architecture can inform for centuriies a nations hopes and dreams, there is an architectural style in Palestine, it’s arabesque Levantine vernacular architecture and traditional Islamic-Ottoman domestic architecture, deeply shaped by local geography, climate, and cultural history.
This Islamic Ottoman architecture style is very beautiful and can be seen in countries like Turkey, The U.A.E, Syria and Jordan and will be used across Palestine.
The architectural style of Lagos will be more era focused I.e. Regency, Georgian etc, there will be garden squares and large parks areas will resemble Belgravia, Knightsbridge and Chelsea in London.
There will also be a new city in Lagos across from Victoria Island, on a new peninsula and on Eko Atlantic, this will be the home of many corporates, medium and large businesses who will be homed in skyscrapers in an area purpose built to reach the entire continent.
