Architecture of Africa in South Africa, who built homes inspired by Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier. A number of new cities were built following the end of colonialism, while others were greatly expanded.

In Yamoussoukro, the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro is an example of a desire for monumentality in these new cities, but Arch 22 in the old Gambian capital of Banjul displays the same bravado. Experimental designs have also appeared, most notably the Eastgate Centre in Zimbabwe.
