This urban-scale project intricately weaves elements of Pakistani heritage into its design, making each roundabout a cultural landmark that resonates with travelers from all walks of life. By integrating both tangible and intangible aspects of Pakistan’s identity, the project fosters a deep sense of familiarity and pride among its visitors. The design concepts draw inspiration from various symbolic elements, such as the guiding principles of Quaid-e-Azam, the historic architectural remnants of Lahore’s grand gateways, and the delicate beauty of Jasmine, Pakistan’s national flower. These influences are seamlessly incorporated into the aesthetic and structural details, ensuring that each roundabout tells a unique story while maintaining a cohesive urban identity.
Material selection plays a crucial role in enriching the design narrative. The juxtaposition of modern materials like concrete with traditional elements such as brick adds layers of depth, reinforcing the project’s commitment to bridging the past with the present. Through thoughtful planning and execution, these roundabouts become more than just traffic solutions—they serve as cultural touchpoints that celebrate Pakistan’s rich history, values, and artistic legacy.
