Abstract

This research looks at possibilities for incorporating indigenous craft into building to create fresh narratives about identity and culture. The paper questions whether architecture can be a way to revive traditional craftsmanship, not only to help artisans but also to give the country's various regional flavors a distinctive character. By displaying the beauty and diversity of their skills, it seeks to reclaim an area that belonged to artisans ages ago. According to the paper, fusing the aesthetics of craft and building creates a fresh creative space for coming up with design concepts that can be used for projects of all sizes, from modest abodes to massive installations. Craft blending into architecture not only supports artisans' livelihoods but also revitalizes the region's cultural heritage, making it a valuable addition to modern design practice.
