Design Of a Space for
Concept
VEHICULAR ROAD
The hypothetical site located inside an institutional campus and the street block consists with 3 pedestrian roads in its three edges. Thus the site has that opportunity to be a huge gathering space for the university students. In this project I considered this public engagement as the most successful contribution. I designed a grand stair that permits a huge sitting accommodation on and around it. The semi outdoor exhibition space is also exposed to the road and offers students to sit aside. The semi outdoor and outdoor spaces will be vibrant while people meet outside of the exhibition gallery. The inviting grand entry attracts people to go inside and the display loop designed around a central void. Exhibition in different layers could be viewed through the void with which a natural defused light creates harmony. The exit way also permits people to get out of the exhibition in different layers; as a result the exposition is like a junction between different roads around the site.

Design of an Elementary School
2nd Year Concept A study on child psychology is the base for this project. In depth survey toward a number of elementary schools located in Khulna City found expression in this academic project. The aim of this survey was to obtain child activities, suitable scale, lighting quality, enclosure and latent sources of pleasure for the target group. The central patio as the playground for the children is connected with the corridors with undulating smooth relief of green ground. The ground is also exposed to the existing lake in the east side. Enlighten with multiple natural color a cave connects the classroom block and the library. In the function every single element, opening, scale, texture, circulation are designed to pursue an exceptional space for children education and self learning. ENTRY TO THE LEARNING CAVE
PRELIMINARY DRAWING
It was an out-door composition and we choose the theme “December 71�. Our attempt was to convey the brutal history, coherent with the liberation war of 71' and the Independence of Bangladesh. The column surmounts with rough texture represents the early brutality of our liberation war. Cubes came out from that surface and crosses through the fragmented red transparent planes. It represents the straggle of our people for the independence. The cubes which have come out emerged in the space with a progression in their changing volumes and colors. This is the very joyful ending, the independence. .

Concept The iconic vertical geometries are derived from the anatomy of a prawn. A concept inspired by the character of the regional landscape. However, the idea contains latent potentiality of sustainability and highly coherent with the design context. Synchronicity with the urban sprawl of the city is achieved through the circulation and highly functional spaces of the project. The site is in the major commercial center of an industrial city, Khulna, Bangladesh. Like many other developing cities architecture in Khulna has occupied an ambivalent position, being characterized as either a form of technical science or economical feasibility in its practical perspective. The idea of a prawn, firstly, enlightened the core farming sector of the saline marsh land of its widespread surroundings. The revolutionary form of the building would create an international landmark and that will integrate the economic sustainability, as prawn is a rising exporting sector of this region. Another unifying gesture is its responses with the climate and structure. Even though, the skyscraper could be symbolized as a form of bioarchitecture, since it's dynamic enclosures provide enormous shelter against the intensive warm humid climatic context of the project. It also juxtaposes structural stability in the terrain wind forces of its geographical location.

Site Area- 44395 sq-ft. Functional Requirements- 2,40,000 sq-ft. OPD, IPD, Emergency, Obstetrical , Diagnostic Facility, Operation Theater, ICU, CCU, Morgue, Administration, Canteen, 25nos parking and Other supportive functions.
Concept We consider the existing lake in the North-West of the site as a major site force. We proposed a coherent open court at the lake side which contains some green trees and the major circulation spaces are around the court. The court works like a heart of the hospital as it provides a splendor vista to the existing lake. We designed the hospital in essence of the peaceful environment of the inner patio and that will help the patient to cure physiologically.

CONCEPT Khulna the third largest metropolis of Bangladesh, a major industrial and commercial center, is undergoing a major transformation. Like the other developing cities Khulna losing its living ambiance. The spaces like playground, parks or principal open space have been decreasing with days. Following the construction act of Bangladesh my site and building type demands 7940 sq-ft of green space. I decide to organize the space in a single cluster. I design a patio inside that will work as a playground for the children of this community.
