Kenyan Professor Wows Netizens After Putting Up Majestic Mansion On 'Wasteland': "Artistic Prof"

• Celebrated architect Alfred Omenya has flaunted a beautiful house he built on land that he described as wasteland
• The professor showed photos of the project that started 18 months ago, and initially, it was just an endless field of grey soil
• Netizens who saw the photo praised the architect, saying that his home was beautiful and also made enquiries about his drawings

Renowned Kenyan professor Alfred Omenya has shown off his house, which he built on wasteland.

Building house took 18 months

In a series of photos posted on Twitter, the architect showed the inception of the grand project until its beautiful end.

Initially, the land was just bare with greyish soil, and the professor was seen comfortably walking around it.

"18 months ago, we only had a wasteland and a dream," said Omenya.

Omenya's pavilion offers great view

The grand house is a white-and-black affair with a box roof, large windows, and glass doors for natural light to beam through, as well as offer breathtaking views.

Just a few metres from the architectural marvel stands a great pavilion that is still under construction. A cement path connects to the main house.

The walkway, kitted with beautiful side lights, leads to the ample gazebo that, once completed, would give the scholar a quiet place to sip on a cold drink, read his books, and enjoy the scenic view of his expansive compound.

There are trees around the house, and apart from supplying fresh air, they will also enhance the privacy of the home. While the lawns are still being groomed, it's only a matter of months before the grounds transform into a verdant oasis.
