The Urban Design Studio, Department of Architecture, Gopalganj Science and Technology University, is going to visit the Urban River Spaces, Jhenaidah on 24th september 2025 — a globally acclaimed project recognized with the Aga Khan Award (2022) and the UIA 2030 Award, as a part of their Architectural Field Survey Course.
We are excited to participate in a discussion session with Ar. Khandaker Hasibul Kabir and Ar. Suhailey Farzana, co-founders of Co.Creation.Architect, whose visionary work has transformed a neglected riverbank into a vibrant civic space through community-driven and sustainable design. This project demonstrates how simple, low-cost interventions can reconnect people with nature, revive cultural practices, and reshape collective urban life. For our students, it will provide valuable insights into designing inclusive public realms, integrating ecology with architecture, and rethinking the role of community participation — key lessons for their Urban Design Studio explorations.
