Project Overview

The QDance Hub is a creative performance space in Lagos that serves as a home for dance, movement, and cultural expression. When the project began, the site was an underutilized structure — rich in potential, but constrained by regulatory ambiguity, structural wear, and undefined development goals.

Dejam Consults was brought on to shape the full transition: from due diligence and regulatory approvals to the complete remodeling and spatial execution of the hub. The result? A compliant, community-driven, and architecturally expressive venue that now stands as a beacon in Lagos' creative ecosystem.

Design & Functional Highlights

  • Adaptive reuse of an existing structure

  • Reprogrammed floor plan for performance, workshops, and admin

  • Culturally inspired finishes to match QDance’s brand identity

  • Renovated infrastructure with attention to natural light and open space

Challenges & Solutions

Challenge

How We Solved It

Complex redevelopment zoning with outdated files

We validated and recharted the plot for accurate approval classification

Risk of design clashing with approval limits

We collaborated directly with architects to adjust layout without losing vision

Lack of existing planning documentation

Dejam coordinated complete documentation + built the case for regulatory compliance
