I'm sharing a crazy story: how I ended up designing a branch for a famous African bank, all from my London apartment...and without getting paid!
Guarantee Trust Bank (GTBank) is known for its stunning, unique architecture. They don't just build cookie-cutter branches - they commission design studios to create something special for each location.
Back in the day, I worked at a design studio in Lagos that constantly competed for these GTBank projects. We all dreamed of landing one! Fast forward a few years, I'm now working in London. One afternoon, I get a call from my old Lagos studio director. He tells me GTBank reached out to him for a design...but they declined the offer due to workload. The deadline to respond? The NEXT DAY!
That's when I stepped in....
This was a wild experience, and I'll tell you all about it in the video. What was the final design like? Hit that play button to find out!
