One of the 19 nominees for the 11th Cycle of The Aga Khan Award for Architecture Location: Chittagong, Bangladesh (South Asia) Architect: Kashef Mahboob Chowdhury Client: Faisal M. Khan Completed: 2007 Site size: 1048 m² This mosque on the suburban periphery of the port of Chittagong in Bangladesh seeks to fulfil the traditional role of a mosque as both a place of spirituality and as a gathering place for the community. The architect began by identifying the essential elements of a mosque to create a new form and articulation for a typology that goes back for a millennium and a half. The result is this monolithic and spare mosque, pared down to two identical cuboid structures. The first is the front court, its heavy masonry walls punctuated with low, wide openings onto the surrounding landscape, with a large eyelike opening above. In the second volume, the naturally lit mihrab wall is balanced by an iconic, cut dome. While the apertures give a sense of openness and draw in light and ventilation by day, by night they allow light to shine out of the mosque like a beacon. With its stark, geometric clarity, the Chandgaon mosque stands apart from many such structures that have reduced architectural features associated with the usual mosque type to the level of kitsch. It makes a definitive architectural statement in a different direction, pointing to the contemporary, to a desire to live in spaces that reflect the universal values of the present day.

One of the19 nominees for the 11th Cycle of The Aga Khan Award for Architecture Nishorgo Oirabot Nature Interpretation Centre Location: Teknaf, Bangladesh (South Asia) Architect: Vitti Sthapati Brindo Ltd, Ehsan Khan Client: Md. Ishtiaque Ahmed, Ministry of Environment & Forests Bon Bhaban Completed: 2008 Site size: 288 m² The main objectives of this centre, located in a protected forest and nature reserve in Chittagong District in the south of Bangladesh, are nature education and interpretation tours, in an effort to create awareness and promote biodiversity, conservation and eco-tourism. Nishorgo means environment in Bengali, and the central concept driving the project is to cherish the sanctity of nature. The building itself is sensitively placed within the landscape: the reinforced concrete platforms of the 'pavilion shelter' float above the ground on structural walls; the concrete slabs are pierced by tree trunks where necessary, reflecting the project's aim to create as little impact on the environment as possible. The visitor walks up the layers of platforms to a raised level to observe the surroundings. An exhibition area is enveloped in a compositional arrangement of openings framed by wooden lattices, and there is a space for viewing films with walls of exposed, burnt clay brick.

A 9-domed mosque built in the 16th century
Tags :Bangladesh, history, mosque, heritage, architecture, archeology

"Which of your Lord's wonders would you deny?" [55:13] Inspired by the Spanish Islamic styles of Cordoba and Alhambra, "White Mosque" serenely blends white marble, steel and glass. The flowing water fountain gently ushers the weary soul to the stairs. The garden is modeled after the oasis of heaven as described in holy book. The mosque is actually ten feet above the ground on the first floor. Ground floor's entrance is from opposite side and cannot be seen from front. It is reserved for housing library, offices, community hall etc. The interior columns, dome and the minaret is made from pre fabricated steel, making the entire structure strong, yet giving an appearance of being suspended from space.
