Mukto Bagan Bari: A Countryside Retreat of Leisure and Togetherness

​

Set against the quiet rhythm of the countryside, Mukto Bagan Bari unfolds as a celebration of leisure, friendship, and the simple joy of living close to nature. Spread over 21.5 kathas of open land with a 7,500 sft built area, this two-storied guest house was envisioned by its owner - a warm, sociable soul - as a place where family and friends could escape the city’s pace, recharge in the open air, and come together in moments of joy.

​

“ A home that breathes with nature - where Brick meets Steel, and every corner invites laughter, leisure, and togetherness. ”

The design of Mukto Bagan Bari reflects a harmony between permanence and playfulness. The ground floor, built of brick and mortar, anchors the home with familiar solidity. Here, expansive communal spaces - a living room that spills into the dining area, a convivial kitchen, and a swimming pool with adjoining changing rooms - set the stage for shared experiences. An amphitheater-style seating arrangement frames the pool, cleverly screening the entry to the changing rooms, offering both a vantage point and a backdrop for laughter, music, or quiet conversation under the sky.

​

In contrast, the first floor embraces modern experimentation with shipping containers transformed into cozy private suites. Each bedroom extends into a balcony, creating intimate spaces that remain visually connected to the landscape. This playful layering of materials - brick below, steel above - mirrors the home’s dual spirit: grounded in tradition, yet open to innovation.

​

Outdoors, the spirit of celebration continues. A circular seating arrangement surrounds a central BBQ pit, perfect for smoky winter feasts and vibrant gatherings. The open yard doubles as a badminton court, keeping alive the lively, recreational essence of the place. Every corner has been thoughtfully designed to invite relaxation, connection, and the creation of memories.

​

More than a guest house, Mukto Bagan Bari is a reflection of its owner’s character - gracious, welcoming, and ever ready to host. It is not simply a built structure but a lifestyle statement: a countryside retreat where architecture meets nature, and where life is celebrated in all its seasons.
