This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Architecture, 2020. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (page 33). Khadi is one of the oldest heritage crafts of Bangladesh. The fabric has stood the test of time simply because of its versatility, simplicity and climate-responsive nature. Unfortunately, the existence of this craft has become increasingly endangered by the emergence of cheaper, yet lower quality industrially-produced fabrics. While the new fabric are more popular, Khadi is richer, more context-appropriate and more ecofriendly. This paper endeavors to explore the possible courses of action that can be taken to revive a fading Bangladeshi craft- the craft of Khadi. This paper also tries to explore if design intervention and strategic institutionalization can help in the intricate process of craft revival, development and expansion Zaria Akhter B.
