The Aga Khan Academy in Dhaka stands as an architectural ode, skillfully resurrecting the venerable design principles of ancient Mahaviharas. The academy is a meticulous orchestration of outdoor expanse, courtyards, and verdant rooftops. The Maidan symbolizes the tranquility of the sanctuaries in Paharpur and Maynamati. The use of Bengal's red bricks, floating and interwoven, narrates a tale of tradition and innovation. Social spaces are inspired from Louis I. Kahn’s philosophy. The project seamlessly intertwines past and present, promising to be the cultural and educational pinnacle of Dhaka.
