Atlas Court
Farashganj, Old Dhaka
An 1899 merchant house, rebuilt for the next century.
Behind a landmarked 1899 façade in Farashganj, Atlas Court has been taken down to its joists and rebuilt with museum-grade craft. A sculptural blackened-steel stair rises four storeys beneath a new glass roof lantern that washes the core of the house in daylight.
The parlour floor keeps its original heart-pine, restored plaster medallions and marble mantels, while the garden level opens through steel casements to a 40-foot landscaped garden with an outdoor fireplace.
