THE OASIS BIOME: A REGENERATIVE AGROECOSYSTEM
An inquiry into regenerative agro-structure through the design of The Oasis Biome, this report explores how architecture can act as a living ecosystem to support climate-resilient food production. Drawing from standards of agroecology, managed environment agriculture, and water-saving technology, it proposes a spatial systems where cultivation, conservation, and community empowerment intersect. The project is situated in Birulia, Savar, and serves as a design-primarily based academic research under the Bachelor of Architecture program at Southeast University.

Making architecture that is really sustainable
Design for kids where 'Form Follows Climate'
The illusion of permanence: the design for disassembly framework
Traditional architecture’s focus on permanence overlooks the environmental constraints of climate urgency. Design for Disassembly (DfD) challenges this by planning buildings to be dismantled, reused, or relocated. This thesis investigates the ecological and socio-economic potentials of DfD, exploring how modularity and reversible connections shape future-oriented construction. Shifting focus from building to responsibly unbuilding redefines permanence for a sustainable lifecycle.
very interesting
