In the case of high-rise public housing, how to integrate these vernacular and contextual elements, neighboring ideas, and sustainable adaptability concepts, to ensure better environmental, living, and community quality, we have determined the regulations and means.

Revising The Renovation of Azimpur Govt. Housing , Dhaka - 1205

This project aims to provide a friendly framework for the future renovation or regeneration of these housing units in Bangladesh, taking into account the climatic and social factors that compel them to analyse the past, present and future effects of this radical change in government housing, along with providing a structured policy for establishing government prototypes that enable government housing projects to be more sustainable and eliminate adverse effects.

HOUSING: Bringing Back the Culture and Resolving Issues
The primary goal of this project was to create, on an ideal site, a housing complex for three economic groups in Bangladesh with all amenities on the same property. The number of facilities will depend on the sort of flat where there is equity. Economy class here refers to a residential neighborhood. The cost of the flats will depend on the neighborhood. The question of how to unite all classes of flat owners under a single community idea remains prioritized even after this class divide.
