 Directed Research Project explores Architecture as a catalyst "community-driven architecture in rural settings" or "vertical social housing in dense urban contexts"], aiming to understand how spatial design can enhance human interactions and cultural continuity. Through case studies, site observations, and iterative design processes, the research investigates the role of materiality, public interfaces, and participatory design in creating meaningful spaces. It explores how people in their context personalize spaces and make it their own, how they socialize despite two different site contexts and how a community comes together when needed. The two sites are Bakeri city and dhal ni pol.
