Q4. National Parliament House ( plan , exterior and Interior ).

Louis Kahn National Assembly Building of Bangladesh in Dhaka is an extraordinary example of modern architecture being transcribed as a part of Bangali vernacular architecture. The geometric shapes found on the different faces of the façade add a dramatic impact to the overall composition of the building. In the assembly I have introduced a light-giving element to the interior of the plan. If you see a series of columns you can say that the choice of columns is a choice in light. The columns as solids frame the spaces of light.
