Jhenaidah Citywide Community Upgrading Process
The jury found this to be a unique endeaver!
The process as much as the product becomes a vehicle for physical, emotional and social shelter.
This process can be seen as a model for taking architecture to the masses, and for defining a new role and an image for the architect: The architects has moved beyond architecture
