CONTEXT OF THE AREA

Dhaka itself is a city of multiplicities - “Dhaka is indeed many Dhaka’s.”The city has resulted in several urban morphologies, each representing a particular spatial social, and economic development environment. In the older part of the city hugging the river Buriganga (whatever is left of it), colorful mixed-use buildings are crowded cheek-by-jowl along narrow winding streets. With its 52 bazars and 53 lanes, abuzz with its own heritage, the old Dhaka has distinctive organic urban morphology with certain buildings of intricate artistry and craftsmanship.

Rasulbagh area is known as a residential area. Most of the buildings are residential & some of them are mixed use. The distribution of residential and work(mixed used) are well maintained and distributed so that it makes a strong impact when planning a city area. Enough facilities (mosques, medical facility, institution) within the catchment area of the park. As a result its not a problem for the inhabitants here to use facilities even if the communication system is poor.

Poor drainage system in some specific area around the park & the current condition cant be improvable because the communication system is too poor there. Buildings are built in a congested way. No space or setbacks given which causes problem for ventilation in this area & electricity cables aren’t handled well so that accidents happen now and then.

Standard road measurement for at least 2 cars to pass by and people to walk According to Bangladesh Govt. Here most of the roads are 8 feet/ 2.5-3 meter in width which is not according to the standard. There should be at least 25% green area of the total build area here which is totally absent here. The only green part of this are is the park and the grave yard.

As a result, communication problem occurs.Unfortunately this hundreds years old story and picture ofthis once architecturally rich area has undergone radical change following the building model set by “New Dhaka”. While all citizens have rights to their own model and desires, when that translates as wanton destruction of heritage and historical identity, it becomes a concern for the whole city. The necessity to maintain these areas and buildings comes not from romantic or sentimental reasons but from offering citizens of the city a diverse urban experience. So, Rasulbagh area need to be developed in sustainable way, by new requirments.

SITE LOCATION : Dhaka, Bangladesh

CONCEPT

Bringing rural elements in highly dense urban area. Using narrow roads as like as aisle of rural areas which connects a smaller unit of space with a broad communication point.

Using the temporary hut-bazar concept to minimize the illegal vendor.

Wrapping up the urban area with green roof concept. Improvising towards a healthier neighborhood for kids mental and physical growth.

Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

AILES

In villages we can see narrow roads connected with easch other creating connection between village huts and spaces likes fields and ponds.

Our concept wast to bring the narrow road and connectivity flavour to a highly densed urban area.

MACHA

In villages we can see plantation on a frame made with jute stick or bamboo, it’s called “Macha”. Machas are placed on hut roof or in the courtyard.

Our concept was to bring the macha concept to bring green belt in a highly densed city area where green ratio is too low.

HUT-BAZAR

In villages we can find hut-bazar which is generally built in a big Banyan tree centred space and quite often surrounding the tree itself. Here people gather and do shopping. Our concept was to bring the tree centred gathering space and marketing place which will let the urban people feel the rural flavour.

CONCEPT

SITE LOCATION : Dhaka, Bangladesh

What Brings Life Into A Office Building

If we watch closely we will see, most of the office buildings become a dead place after the office hours. No or hardly any public activity is incorporated in the office buildings. The key concept of this design was to break this shackle. An office tower which may become a public meeting place in the falling afternoon... may become a venue for a publicevent... may become a platformfor the citizen to promote democracy... is the sole idea of this project. It is a tower that never sleeps... it is a tower that never goes dead... hence it can be called the “Living Tower”.

The ground is an open public plaza inviting all kinds of public activity and bridging between the city and the lake. Office flloors are housed in a 700 a feet tall tower ensuring no hindrance or disturbance from the public ground. Two types of floor plans offer single tenant and double tenant office floors. An amalgamation of public activity and private business under the same sky is what makes this tower unique.

Spire

Central Core

Efficient and minimal central core system with lift cores, fire stairs and services. Average core area per floor less than 20%

Restaurent

A fully equipped restaurant and bar on the top floor accessible by all.

Green Roof

The roof is covered with green garden plants that coolen and filter the air coming toward the building

Office Space

Spacious and efficient office space available for single tenant and double tenant users.

Low-E Polycarbonate Skin

for transparency with low heat gain

Double Glazed Low-E Glass

for low heat gain and emissibility

Columns

Steel columns starting from the truss system up to the top supported by Horizontal beams function as the structure of the tower.

Rejuvenating Balconies

Selective floors at regular intervals are fitted with green terraces for rejuvenation. These also work as a refuge space in case of any disastrous situation.

Public Plaza

The ground is an open plaza accessible by all. This plaza may house any kind of public gathering.

Basement Parking

A total of 290 cars parking in 2 basements under the ground.

Design Considerations:

1. If somehow the dam is not able to protect the residents of Sundarbans from flood like disasters, our Floating Structure could be an ideal solution.

2. Re-vibrating living statement to retreat and sustain in different situations like cyclone and flood.

3. The idea for this monolithic structure has been taken from the classic hut designs of this very Bengal region, which shows the least resistance against rain-force during a cyclone.

4. Materials like bamboo, that is environment-friendly, has good fibres strength and cost efficient, and re-usable plastic barrels, that are eco-friendly, cheap and renewable, were chosen.

5. Providing sustainable options like solar panel, biogas plant, sock-pit, etc. in order to survive amidst flood and cyclone.

6. Such course of actions would ensure uninterrupted continuation of daily activities following cyclone after-effects like flood and water-logging, that may persist for months.

7. Bamboo has been chosen as the main raw material because it can fully mature within 1.5-2 years after plantation; therefore, the ecosystem would least affected.

8. The construction materials have been carefully selected so that each are easily and locally available, local laborers are familiar and used-to with their working techniques and the authority or NGO in-charge can implement the architecture in times of disaster quickly.

9. In-house Floating Vegetation system and Floating Fish Cultivation system in net have been adopted to facilitate and sustain growth of crops, plants and fishes despite the odds of salty soil or harmful flood water respectively.

10. Organized all functions in a single structure that can serve an all-natural situation.

11. At present bund is called only their lifeline, but if it brock there life will hampered . So, floating build form would be another one.

5-Point Objectives:

1. Resilient to natural hazards like cyclone and flood- the design is based on the floatable light weight but strong structure and the shape of the house itself effective for least resistance air pressure.

2. Sustainable by minimizing to the ecosystem- as the material is bamboo which has as accelerating growth, it can be replaced fast creating less damage to eco system and properly seasoned bamboo are very sustaining natural building material.

3. The design is creative and valuing the culture by the shape (monolithic structure) which was used in this very Bengal region once and this shape has been creatively improvised by the bamboo structure which help to lessen the dead load so that the whole platform can float during the flood.

4. Very affordable and cost-effective construction as the building materials are local and familiar to the local labour and less costly.

5. As the material is locally available and familiar to the labour, its easily implementable in larger scale.
