Somali Institute of Architects (SIA)

We are architects without borders from a generation that grew up and learned amid the rubble and the cries of the suffering of Somali society. We came to make history again towards a moral struggle and sacrifices for the reconstruction and sustainable development of the new Somalia.

Welcome to SIA
