Exhibition ‘A Place of Stories: Designing the Stall’ at AFD

An exhibition titled “A Place of Stories: Designing The Stall” begins at the La Galerie of Alliance Française de Dhaka (AFD) in the capital’s Dhanmondi area today.
The exhibition highlights the top 30 designs selected from over 400 entries submitted by more than 1,000 participants from around the globe. The show invites viewers to explore the reimagining of the traditional tea stall, transforming it from a simple roadside structure into a vibrant community space and cultural symbol. Open to students, professionals, and interdisciplinary teams, the design challenge encouraged creative solutions that are inclusive, functional, and socially engaging.
The projects were carefully reviewed by an esteemed jury, including Shuvra Das, an architect and CUET lecturer in sustainable design; Khwaja Fatmi, a humanitarian architect recognized by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture; and Tasadduk Hossain Dulu, a celebrated artiste with multiple national awards.
A Place of Stories celebrates the power of design and its ability to foster connection and community engagement.
Claymire, founded by Debashish Roy, Mahir Aritro, and Pritom Sikder, is a creative platform dedicated to connecting architects, artists, designers, and students to explore ideas, push boundaries, and celebrate innovation in design.
Open to all till  27 March from 12:00pm to 9:00pm.
