National Parliament House of Bangladesh
In the assembly I have introduced a light-giving element to the interior of the plan. If you see a series of
columns you can say that the choice of columns is a choice in light. The columns as solids frame the spaces
of light. Now think of it just in reverse and think that the columns are hollow and much bigger and that their
walls can themselves give light, then the voids are rooms, and the column is the maker of light and can take
on complex shapes and be the supporter of spaces and give light to spaces. I am working to develop the
element to such an extent that it becomes a poetic entity which has its own beauty outside of its place in the
composition. In this way it becomes analogous to the solid column I mentioned above as a giver of light.
Layout
The main building (the Bhaban) is divided into three
parts:
- The Main Plaza
- South Plaza
- Presidential Plaza
The main building is at the center of the complex. The
outer parts of the complex include the MP hostel. An
intricately designed lake surrounds the main building.
The Bhaban (Main Building) design
• The Bhaban consists of nine
individual blocks: the eight
peripheral blocks rise to a height of
110' while the central octagonal
block rises to a height of 155’
