An introduction to the cost-effective social housing project established in Dhaka and on display at Vitra.
In Bangladesh, flooding is becoming more frequent as a result of climate change, forcing countless people to find new homes. In response, Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum and her team have developed the Khudi Bari - Little House: A low-cost structure that can be assembled, disassembled, transported, and reassembled in another location by the in-habitants themselves. A Khudi Bari has been erected on the Vitra Campus in Weil am Rhein as an example of an architec-tural approach and a concrete response to problems exac-erbated by the climate crisis. This accompanying publication contains texts, photographs and illustrations of the building, which forms an important part of the ongoing architectural dialogue on the campus.
