HAVING LIVED IN THE HISTORIC CITY OF LAHORE, HE UNDERSTANDS THE SENSIBILITIES AND MODERN ARTISTIC VALUES WHILE NOT
LOSING RESPECT AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE HISTORIC CITY. IT SOON BECAME CLEAR THAT HIS EARLY SUPER MODERN (RELATIVELY

working with a current world.
 He always wanted to work with
indigenous material and native
architecture so that the cost of
the project is lowest and to meet
the passive environment within

 According to dada local
architecture is the main
architecture we should work on
and made our buildings iconic
with depicting our culture and
architecture

if you have added something meaningful to the place you belong to"
