Project Description
There is an old heritage house belonging to Majumdar Babu in Rajshahi — a symbol of the city’s rich legacy. On the ground floor of the house, Majumdar Babu runs a small bookshop, while he resides on the upper floor.
The courtyard and the remaining ground floor space have been transformed into a cozy reading zone and a café, connected to the bookshop. It’s mainly designed for people who love reading, so they can come here and enjoy books in a serene and inviting environment. The shaded, homely atmosphere allows visitors to spend peaceful, quality time — helping them feel mentally refreshed and healed.
