The new Kintele Congress Centre and Resort
Hotel (KCC) by Avcı Architects is in a newly
developing area of Brazzaville, to the north
of the new Olympic Centre. The site has
panaromic views of the Congo River to the
south and a forested unbuilt landscape to the
north. The topography of the site is a valley
carved out by the great Congo River which
creates an island M’Bamaou in the foreground,
and the buildings sit parallel to the contours of
this valley, falling towards the river.
