Idea projektu

Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, has transformed into a bustling and densely populated metropolitan city, attracting people for work, business, and various pursuits. However, a noticeable issue is the insufficient availability of open & high-quality public spaces. Here public spaces often lack quality and fail to provide an enjoyable environment for the community. In the Dhaka North City Corporation area, this problem is quite visible. The busy lifestyle of the residents contributes to a lack of communication platforms within the community, resulting in a somewhat dull atmosphere. This not only affects the vibrancy of community life but also hinders interaction among people of different age groups. The goal is to provide a platform that unites the public, community, and business through their everyday needs and activities where people will be able to interact, enjoy leisure activities, and come together on this platform. In densely populated areas like Dhaka, Transit Oriented Development (TOD) hubs offer a potential solution. These hubs, centered around MRT stations, present opportunities for creating vibrant gathering spaces.

Popis projektu

This project is designed with a strong focus on connectivity and functionality, centering on a seamless integration between the podium level and the adjacent MRT station. A direct link ensures ease of access for public transport users, encouraging smooth intermodal exchanges and enhancing the overall experience for daily commuters. By prioritizing transit-oriented development, the design fosters a more inviting and efficient public space, making it a key hub for urban mobility.

In addition to enhancing connectivity, the project incorporates strategically placed commercial spaces, retail outlets, and entertainment facilities. These elements are not only designed to enrich the user experience but also to generate additional revenue, contributing to the economic sustainability of the development. By blending functionality with commercial viability, the project aims to create a vibrant, long-lasting urban environment that serves both the community and stakeholders alike.
