1993 – 2025.
Mamy Tall, the celebrated Senegalese architect, designer, and cultural visionary known for reshaping the narrative of African cities, has passed away. A radiant force in West African design, Tall co-founded Dakar Lives, a digital platform spotlighting Senegal’s urban culture, and established Weex Tall, a multidisciplinary studio merging architecture, photography, fashion, and heritage.
Her work championed sustainable urbanism, modern African identity, and the use of local materials—particularly earthen construction—as a statement of cultural pride and environmental consciousness.
