The Arcadia Education Centre (School) is located in South Kanarchor, Bangladesh[1] on the bank of the Dhaleshwari River.[2] The modular, amphibious structure adapts to seasonal flooding using an innovative design based on traditional building techniques and incorporating local materials.[2][3] The facility contains a preschool, hostel, nursery, and vocational training centre.[4]
Amphibious architecture
The Maleka Welfare Trust purchased a patch of land so they could relocate one of their preschools and add additional social facilities.[5] The land is flooded five months of the year[1] and its topography is incompatible with conventional solutions to this challenge.[2]
Architect Saif Ul Haque Sthapati of Dhaka, Bangladesh[6] designed a buoyant platform that floats tethered during the rainy season and settles back to the ground during the dry season, allowing the facility to remain operational year-round.[2] In addition to this cost-effective solution to flooding, the building is made of inexpensive materials including several local bamboo varieties and upcycled materials such as steel drums and car tires.[2] The building materials and techniques are based on traditional house construction techniques used in the area.[2] This amphibious structure that rises with water levels could be the potential solution to rising sea levels because of climate change.[7]
The structure is open to nature, allowing students to benefit from natural light while learning from their surroundings.[2]
Maleka Welfare Trust
The Maleka Welfare Trust is a private social welfare organization.[5] Their programs include preschools, a vocational training centre, a nursery, and a hostel for single women.[5]
The Aga Khan Award for Architecture announced the Maleka Welfare Trust's Arcadia Education Project as one of the 2019 Award winners[1][8] for its thoughtful response to flooding using local materials and traditional building techniques.[2][9] Razia Alam was presented the Aga Khan Award for Architecture by His Highness the Aga Khan and Mintimer Shaimiev, State Counselor of the Republic of Tatarstan on September 13, 2019.[10]
