Event& Notice25 Jul 2007 07:13 pm

Architect Nurur Rahman Khan will present a speech tomorrow after his visit to two great projects by Le Corbusier, the Sarabhai House and the Mill Owners Association Building.
He has photographed these masterpieces from different perspectives and out of different interests and intensions, which may not be found anywhere else in any publication on Corbusier.
So tomorrow’s Discourse is going to be a new revelation of these projects of Corbu for the participants. There will also be a presentation on a surprise project of Corbusier which you have never seen before (most probably!). It’s a recently built project, an amazingly off-track design by Corbusier.

So why to miss all these? Join in and rock the event!

When: at 1800 sharp on 26th July 2007 (Thursday)
Where: The Open Studio,
Dept. of Architecture, The University of Asia Pacific,
H#51, R#4A, Dhanmondi, Dhaka, Bangladesh.

well Discourse is coming back , for you. with lots of new fresh looks, inshallah!
last thursday we get back to our secreteriate office and discussed a whole bunch of new ideas, about the seasons coming for discourse and about its fresh start. Discourse successfully will soon appear 10 yrs old, and its a great achievement for the people, friends, architects, and sincere hands in backdrop un-noticed, but cared. from deep core of heart we all remember them, thank them, and moreover miss many of them quite often.

architecture as i believe, is complicated but rational, yet emotional! its nothing about only thinking, its all about how people percieves. students are always as powerful as anything, they can commit and they can do it. as founder & chief advisor of Discourse architect N.R.Khan believes its time to re-discover Discourse with enormous zeal, commitements and enthusiasm, BY STUDENTSBODY!

in near future, im telling you, very soon, Discourse will publish its new managing body officially, agenda and fresh brain storming sessions under team consisting young architects and senior students from various schools of architecture stream. it has been discussed and architect khan rendered his wishes, and students shared their views and thoughts.

we are now thinking unitedly, with more notions, creative selections of new and ideal discussions, architects with students sessions, and more. so stay tuned, Discourse is coming back!

with loads of passion. students, be there. we are nothing without you, and without your commitments.
