Bog beskrivelse

Muzharul Islam was one of the principal stalwarts of South Asia who established the norms and practices of modernity. Uniquely passionate about architecture and political engagement, Muzharul Islam’s life and legacy contributed to the building up of a vibrant architectural culture in Bangladesh, with an impact beyond the boundaries of that country. The book Muzharul Islam, An Architect of Tomorrow is the first comprehensive book on the architect featuring his works and texts, and essays by notable figures from across the world. Muzharul Islam (1923-2013) was active from the early 1950s in defining the scope and form of modern architecture, first in Pakistan and then, after 1971, in Bangladesh. His task was an enormous one: to create a modern yet Bengali paradigm for architecture. For Muzharul Islam, modernism meant more than an architectural vocabulary; it was part of an ethical and rational approach for addressing social inequities of the region. His steadfast commitment to a modernist ideology stemmed from an optimistic vision for transforming society. Consequently, his commitment for establishing a strong design culture in Bangladesh is paralleled by a deep engagement with the political and ethical dimension of society, with building the nation, so to speak.
