Rangunia Residence: A Contemporary Home Rooted in Rural Bangladeshi Vernacular

Moofer Architecture, led by Md. Fahad Rahman, has designed the Rangunia Residence in Rangunia, Chattogram, Bangladesh, a 4,500-square-foot home that reinterprets the spatial and environmental principles of rural Bangladeshi architecture. The project, curated by Miwa Negoro, is set for completion in 2026. The house draws from vernacular elements as practical responses to climate, landscape, and everyday life, rather than as nostalgic references. Structural engineering is by Pratim Bhuiyan, and electrical engineering by Mohammad Rashedul Islam. Photographs are by Prantography.
