Melissa Kacoutie, graduate of Ecole D'Architecture Speciale de Paris , worked for a number of architectural firms in Abidjan before deciding to create her own in 2016. She had always enjoyed drawing since she was a child, which is why she focused on academics that would allow her to combine her love with her career.
Her greatest accomplishment since starting this business is being able to hire a variety of young women who demonstrate that it is actually possible for women to work in a field that is thought to be male dominated. This agency has been in business for four years.
"What I love most about Kacoutie's work is her efforts to blend traditional and raw minimalistic style in a repetition of simple elements to mimic complexity, all endowed with a touch of femininity."-Dominique Petit-Frère
