Nazrul institute

Abstract

The existing institute is a 6 storied building built beside the poet's residence (where he was kept after he came to Dhaka, Bangladesh) which has been converted to a museum. The space for the institute is not sufficient for the type of activities it performs. Often they need to hire auditoriums, and places outside, and the existing spaces are not sufficient for their objectives. The location is also the major flaw. The current location of the building is not noticeable from main road and is placed inside a very quiet residential area of Dhanmondi. As a result, it is the main cause for the institute to be unsuccessful. Therefore, Nazrul institute is proposed in a new location, so that it can be built in a proper way which can serve the purposes with which it was planned. Moreover it will also give the city dwellers of Dhaka a place to go, where they can study, research, make themselves culturally active and also get enlightened.
