Community-driven architecture places residents and local stakeholders at the center of the design process, creating spaces that respond to specific cultural needs and social conditions. This approach treats architecture as a collaborative practice where communities help shape their built environment.The community explores projects ranging from cultural institutions like music kiosks and learning pavilions to public markets and collaborative workspaces, examining how participatory design methods produce spaces with genuine local relevance and sustained community engagement.
