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.

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.

From Grey to Green: Retrofitting Urban Infrastructure for Climate Resilience and Community Well-Being

This dissertation explores retrofitting as a strategy for transforming existing urban infrastructure into resilient, inclusive, and climate-responsive environments. Through policy analysis and Indian case studies, it demonstrates how adaptive reuse and passive design can reduce environmental impact while enhancing urban liveability, positioning retrofitting as a sustainable alternative to demolition-led redevelopment.

Udhayam - A brownfield development initiative, Case of Brahmapuram

Udhayam explores the metamorphosis of a brownfield site into a research-oriented and publicly accessible hub. Research institute evolving development strategies for post-industrial landscapes including restoration zones supporting biodiversity is the program. Beginning with a critical study of post-landfill sites, ecological mapping informed site structuring, and the form concluded stilted structures to minimize ground disturbance.
