REFUGEE TRANSITIONAL FACILITY AND CULTURAL RETREAT FOR SOUTH ASIAN AND ARAB REFUGEES AND IMMIGRANTS
by Areesha Khalid
An exhibit, cultural retreat and temporary accommodation for new refugees/immigrants to integrate into society and combat homesickness through exposure to own culture, language and media e.g. with proposed workshops of carpet making, calligraphy and lithography. The architecture is driven by the medium of the craft, blending the refugees' vernacular and Mughal design with the contemporary world.
