A Fourteen-Day Immersive Study in Puran Dhaka

Through firsthand observation, documentation,and community engagement, we delved into the nuances that continue to make Puran Dhaka a vibrant and thriving commercial hub. This immersive experience provided me with a unique opportunity to gain invaluable insights into international architectural practices and to contribute to a deeper understanding of the region's urban challenges and potentials.

I was privileged to be part of an intensive study that took us deep into the heart of Puran Dhaka. Alongside fellow students and faculty from the College of Architecture Trivandrum (CAT), France and Bangadesh we embarked on a journey to explore the city's intricate urban fabric and the rich tapestry of lives that unfold within it.
