| dc.description | Studies have shown that there is a need to adapt buildings over their lifespan to environmental, economic and social changes. Anecdotal evidence suggests that entertainment centres in Nigeria often cease to meet their performance criteria over time as entertainment needs of users change. The purpose of this study is to identify space adaptability strategies that influence performance of selected entertainment centres in Nigeria and propose a design for Benin-City, Nigeria. A mixed research method was employed in the course of the study which used both qualitative and quantitative research approaches to achieve the aim of the study. Four entertainment centres were selected for this study. Respondents were users of the buildings. A total of 86 copies of questionnaire were retrieved from the users of these selected entertainment centres while case studies was carried on of these centres. The findings from the study suggested that only 7 of the 37 identified adaptability strategies had a significant effect on the performance of these entertainment centres. The proposed design therefore implements the adaptability strategies identified to improve building performance. | |
