Project Description

Tea shops have long played a significant role in local life at Zainul Abedin Park, Mymensingh, across the Brahmaputra River. But as time went on, silt buildup changed the river's margin, forming a riverbed where impromptu, little tea shops sprang. Krishoker Bazar was later formed because these areas were well-liked community places that drew residents and farmers from the other banks. Even though these booths hold cultural value, they are forced to close during the monsoon season due to regular floods. To solve this, we suggest an amphibious, modular tea stall that maintains the character of these meeting places while adjusting to fluctuating water levels. Lightweight, flexible, and environmentally friendly construction is prioritized in the design. The stall is made possible by a floating base made of plastic drums. Adjust height following water levels, guaranteeing year- round operation. The bamboo and wooden framework's modular design allows for simple installation and disassembly as well as scalability to meet demand. Comfortable shade, weather protection, and ventilation are provided by the roof, which is constructed from tarpaulin or locally found materials. This layout may be adjusted to accommodate different crowd sizes, making it a flexible public area. Through the use of indigenous materials and traditional building methods, it maintains its cultural roots while being easily replicable. This tea stall serves as more than simply a building; it is a community-driven, self-sustaining, and extensible architectural solution that promotes resilience, social ties, and economic sustainability for future generations.
