The Department of Architecture at Bangladesh University is set to host the third lecture of its Fall 2025 series, spotlighting the power of visual storytelling in design.
Titled “From Concept to Composition: Building Visual Narratives,” the session will feature Architect Irteza Ameen, founder of the multidisciplinary studio Design Commune.
This lecture marks the 14th instalment of Chorcha, the department’s signature platform for architectural discourse.
Ameen will guide audiences through the evolution of design thinking—from the spark of abstract ideas to their transformation into spatial compositions where form, material, and graphic language converge to express identity and intent.
Drawing from a rich and varied portfolio, Ameen will demonstrate how visual storytelling functions not only as a design tool but as a communicative language—shaping how we interpret, inhabit, and emotionally connect with space.
Ameen, a Bangladeshi architect and designer, is known for his seamless integration of architecture, graphic design, and user experience. His studio, Design Commune, operates at the intersection of built form and cultural narrative, crafting works that are both contextually grounded and visually articulate.
His notable collaborations include archival and publication projects on three of Bangladesh’s architectural luminaries—Architect Muzharul Islam, Architect Bashirul Haq, and Professor Shamsul Wares—as well as a wide array of architectural, interior, and exhibition design ventures.
Through his practice, Ameen exemplifies a rare synthesis of architectural rigour and graphic precision, producing designs that resonate with character, clarity, and cultural depth.
