The Cape Institute for Architecture (CIfA)

The CBA was proud to be the main sponsor for the CIfA’s month-long series of Woman in Architecture (WIA) events, that will built and strengthened our relationship with the institute and local architects .

“Thank you for your most generous support of this event, responded CIfA President Nicola Irving. “It feels most appropriate that clay – one of the first materials from which we created vessels to contain ourselves – giving shelter, warmth and security, and a very feminine narrative, was the sponsor for this event.”
