    (DEPARTMENT OF ARCHITECTURE, 2022-03-01) SANTO, SHARIAR ALAM; SANTO (201732022), SHARIAR ALAM
    Mud-Art has always been a significant element of every nation’s art & culture especially in this sub-continent. Bangladesh to be precise, as a sub continental area is also not far behind. In fact, our country is enriched with rich cultural history in this particular segment. Traditionally being one of the ancient and known rural industries in Bangladesh, it is the semi largest source of rural employment and income after agriculture and is responsible for a very high percentage of the nation's economy. However, today, this prospective commerce is at the edge of extinction because of various obligations and obstructions, which force the potters to leave their ancestors profession, clay crafting. Glorious past, confusing present and questionable future; is the ultimate harsh truth that clay craft is facing now. This project discusses about the possible way chosen for the benefit of the artisans’ community by taking inspiration from the past and implementing it for the future. It’s like an institution within itself which benefits the entire complex as one unified whole. This interaction center, informal shield and accommodating of the craftsman’ language is basically an interactive platform for the welfare of the potters’ community, and in greater aspect for the entire country.
