Rather than move away from the water, why not embrace it and continue to develop the city with the water? This is what has led to the theme of the first Eddy Eguavoen Foundation Architecture Competition, Lagos: City on Water. The Foundation has called for entries from recent graduates and students of architecture to design innovative building, structure, masterplan nay design solution for the future of Lagos on water. Twenty finalists will be shortlisted while first to third position winners will win a cash prize of 700 euro, 400 euro and 200 euro respectively. Voen Associates is still active and the implementation of this organisation is a way of honouring his legacy while pushing for progress in Nigerian Architecture.
