Architect Pomanti Enweh Solomon, PhD
Founder, The Arch’Triangle Initiative | Co-Founder, Pesarch Construction Company
Architect Pomanti Enweh Solomon is a dynamic figure whose life and career bridge continents, cultures, and disciplines. Born in southeastern Nigeria as the fourth child in a family of nine, Solomon’s early worldview was shaped by the same region that nurtured Africa’s most iconic storytellers, including Chinua Achebe. Immersed in the traditions of oral history and cultural identity, he developed a deep appreciation for the power of narrative, a foundation that would later inform his architectural philosophy.
His life took a transformative turn when he was adopted by an Italian couple at a young age. This cross-cultural shift introduced him to Italy’s rich artistic heritage and set him on a path of academic and creative exploration. As a naturalized Italian citizen, Solomon grew into his dual identity, merging his Nigerian roots with Italy’s architectural legacy and eventually extending his vision to Germany.
Solomon studied architecture at the University of Pescara in Italy, where he immersed himself in both theory and practice. Alongside his architectural education, he pursued his interests in literature, art, and theatre, drawing inspiration from Italian luminaries such as Gabriele D’Annunzio, Dante Alighieri, and Michelangelo. His approach to design became both technical and poetic, integrating story, structure, and human experience.
He went on to earn certifications in digital architecture, engineering, and Building Information Modeling (BIM), enhancing his technical capabilities across platforms and sectors. He also obtained a diploma in art and theatre from the Italian Federation of Weavers, Actors, and Models, enriching his creative perspective.
Solomon has contributed to large-scale housing and redevelopment projects across Italy, working alongside private firms on initiatives aligned with the national Ecobonus 110% (Superbonus 110%), a government-led program to improve energy efficiency and revitalize communities. His skills as a 3D designer and certified BIM project manager have made him a key asset in sustainability-driven urban planning.
Now based in Germany, Solomon continues to apply his knowledge to urban development projects that support immigrant integration, sustainability, and circular infrastructure. His work is guided by a core belief that architecture goes beyond shaping skylines to shaping lives.
Solomon is a sought-after speaker and advocate for inclusive design. He has presented at Oxford University and institutions across Europe, sharing his vision for a more connected and equitable future through architecture and literature. He is also the author of the forthcoming book series, The 13th Disciple.
Throughout his career, he has engaged with notable global leaders and public figures, including:
Former President of Ghana
Engaged with the former Ghanaian President on African development, democratic governance, and youth leadership. Their shared commitment to Pan-Africanism reflects a mutual vision for unity and progress.
Former World Bank VP & Treasurer
Discussions focused on economic development, financial inclusion, and Africa’s role in global finance. Oteh’s expertise significantly influenced Solomon’s views on sustainable progress.
Nigerian journalist and entrepreneur
Momodu’s media influence and entrepreneurial spirit resonated with Solomon’s belief in leveraging media for social change, engaging the diaspora, and using storytelling for development.
Former Italian Prime Minister and regional politician
Solomon had the honor of meeting Berlusconi during Gianni Chiodi’s regional candidacy, reflecting his interest in political and diplomatic dialogues.
Renowned Italian science journalist
Attending Angela’s lecture highlighted Solomon’s interest in communication and education. Angela’s work demystifying complex topics aligns with Solomon’s passion for learning from diverse perspectives.
German MEP
As the first Black female deputy in her political group, Herzberger-Fofana was instrumental in inspiring Solomon to promote The Arch’Triangle Initiative.
German Bundestag Member
Meeting with Bundestag member and former Spandau Mayor Helmut Kleebank to discuss local governance, EU-African relations, and inclusive urban development.
Their insights and collaborations have informed Solomon’s commitment to cross-cultural dialogue, democratic engagement, and sustainable progress.
In Nigeria, Solomon co-founded Pesarch Construction Company Ltd, a firm dedicated to creating job opportunities for marginalized youth and bringing smart urban planning to underrepresented regions. Its first major project, the digital mapping of Enugu’s urban landscape, laid the foundation for the city’s first complete master urban plan.
Whether designing cities or shaping policy frameworks, Solomon sees architecture as a tool for social transformation, combining hard infrastructure with soft power to empower communities.
Solomon is the founder of The Arch’Triangle Initiative, a private trilateral research platform promoting unity and integration among nations. Conceptually inspired by the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative, the Triangular Trade, and the Bermuda Triangle, this project reimagines the historic triangle as a bridge to bring together cultures, ideas, and aspirations.
Through research, design, and cross-cultural collaboration, The Arch’Triangle seeks to transform geopolitical narratives into opportunities for healing, dignity, and connection.
His journey is a powerful reminder that architecture can do more than house people. It can honor memory, bridge divides, and build belonging. Through his work, Solomon continues to shape a future where form meets justice, and design becomes a language of unity.
