New Parliament Complex for Trinidad & Tobago - An Architecture of Calypso & Carnival Culture - The twin island Republic of Trinidad and Tobago has a strong national identity both culturally (festivals, music, religion, and art) and politically, as it continues to grow and flourish. A New Parliament Building for Trinidad and Tobago that reflects these developments and seeks its validity as a reflection of the society and its belief system; while anchored in the development of contemporary architectural devices informed by local architectural traditions is possible.
