Not Completion but Continuity, is a measure of Architecture
For Abu Laskar, Founder of Dearc, the most inspiring buildings are rarely the loudest. They are the ones that continue to perform beautifully decades after completion by adapting to changing needs, responding to their context, and quietly improving the lives of the people who use them.
