NAIROBI, KENYA: ARCHITECTURE

These are just a few examples of the diversity of architectural styles and materials in Nairobi as well as Nakuru. There are very tall landmarks like you would see in any city as well as apartment buildings that are fairly typical. At the same time, there are modest structures made from mud and available materials. Although I did not photograph any, there are also cardboard and other makeshift shelters in the poorest areas.
