The National Assembly building is an iconic architecture and an edifice that symbolises the presence and practice of democracy. The Nigeria National assembly building is neoclassical in style; characterised by elements and features traceable to the architecture of the neoclassical period that span through 17th and 18th century. The roof, walls, grandeur of scale, geometric form as well as the environmental impact were analysed. The work established the meeting point between democracy and architecture, it revealed various measures incorporated in the design to mitigate environmental impact as well as sustainable building solutions including solar panel, elevated floor, building management systems, bioclimatic package, and natural light optimization among others. It recommended the inclusion of measures that will mitigate environmental impact of resource consumption on site as well as environmentally friendly practices during and after construction.
