Resurgence of Origins (Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose Center for Scientific Research)

Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose, a famous Bengali scientist who was born in Munshiganj, Bangladesh. He made outstanding contributions to Physics and Botany. His ancestor’s house in Munshiganj has been neglected for many years. He was not being honored in his birthplace. In addition, it is known from the Global Innovation Index that the position of Bangladesh is far behind in terms of research, which may be due to the lack of proper facilities for laboratories. The purpose of this project also questioned what 21st century laboratory architecture should be. Bangladesh cannot fall behind in this age of technology if Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose, who came from a rural background at that time, was able to make a stir in the world. Therefore, the project begins at Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose’s birthplace, where his roots are traced. There are two considerations to approach the concept. The first comes from Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose’s philosophy, and the second is from site analysis. As per the literature authored by Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose, the coexistence of living and non-living entities embodies his principles, which he unveiled throughout his life through his diverse explorations. The project includes lab experimental plant exhibition where people can listen to plant’s voice. One can feel the pulse of the tree and gain more knowledge about the tree. The project is designed to enrich the existing flora-fauna which will be reflected as Sir J.C Bose’s philosophy and also memorable to the general public and researchers.
