Industrial Design graduate · Lalmatia, Dhaka
I am finishing Industrial Design at BUET. My final project is a water carrier for households that still fetch water — designed around a jute and recycled-plastic shell that a workshop in Keraniganj can actually make.
I want a first job somewhere that builds prototypes rather than renders them. I am better with my hands than with a mood board, and I would rather be told that a thing does not work early.
Concept to working prototype. Sketch, CAD, 3D print, and then the part where it breaks and I find out why.
Timber, sheet metal, moulded foam and 3D print. I cut my own parts, which is why my drawings are buildable.
Jute, recycled plastic, cork and bamboo — what a Dhaka workshop can source without a six-week import.
Twelve households, four weeks, and the notebook that came back full of things I had got wrong.
She rebuilt the handle four times because twelve households told her it was wrong. Most students defend the first one.
Supervisor, BUETThe only intern whose CAD we could send straight to the workshop.
