RESUME

an undergrad architecture student at Kathmandu Engineering college

There are things I don’t understand sometimes, yet architecture piques my curiosity about how spaces impact one’s daily life. Additionally, I enjoy drawing what I see, which allows me to experience spaces through sketches. Photography shows me that architecture is more than just chunks of blocks.

LIVING CANVASES

VISION

THE PURPOSE OF THIS DESIGN IS TO CREATE A SPACE FOR THE ARTIST CLIENT WHERE HE CAN IMMERSE HIMSELF IN THE CREATION OF ART WITH ENDELSS INSPIRATION AND CULTTIVATE HIS CREATIVITY. THE DESIGN ALSO INTEGRATES THE SPACE FOR THE PSYCHIATRIST WIFE WHERE THERE IS A SEPARATION OF SPACE BETWEEN THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE. THE SEPARATION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE ENSURES THAT THE FAMILY CAN FOCUS ON THEIR WORKSPACE WHILE ALSO PROVIDE AN OPPERTUNITY FOR SOCIAL INTERACTION AND FAMILY TIME WHENEVER THEY WISH TO.

LIVING CANVASES IS NOT JUST A PLACE TO BE CREATED, ITS A SPACE WHERE THE ARTIST CAN FIND A PERFECT BALANCE BETWEEN THE SOLITUDE AND CONNECTION, INSPIRATION AND RELAXATION.

WORK-SPACE FAMILYSPACE

CONCEPT

THERE IS ALWAYS TWO SIDES IN BOTH PAINTING AND THERAPY.

A PAINTER USES A CANVAS TO PAINT. WHILE A PHYCHIATRIST DOES THERAPY WITH THE PATIENT IN FRONT OF HIM/HER.

THUS, EMPHASIZING BOTH OF THE FACTOR I DIFFERENTIATED THE ARTIST AND PHYCHIATRIST AS THE FAMILY SPACE AND THE CANVAS AND THE PATIENT AS THE WORK-SPACE

PRE-SCHOOL DESIGN

VISION

THE IDEA IS TO CREATE A PLACE FOR THE PROPER GROWTH OF THE CHILDREN WHERE THEY CAN BE PROPERLY GUIDED. THE SEGARATION OF ADMINISTRATION AND THE ACADEMIC CLASSES WITH VISUAL CONNECTION.

SINCE ITS A VERY FRAGILE SPACE WHERE THERE ARE SMALL CHILDRENS, THE ACADEMIC SPACE IS PLACED WHERE THERE IS POPER SUPERVISION OF THE CHILDREN SPACE.

CENTRAL SYSNTHESIS

MIX-USE BUILDING

VISION

THE IDEA WAS TO CREATE DIFFERENT OPEN SPACES FOR PEOPLE TO EXPERIENCE IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BUILDING, FOSTERING AN OPENNESS TO THE SURROUNDINGS. IN THIS CONTEXT, SPACES THAT ARE CONNECTED WITH THE CENTRAL SPACE INHERIT THE WELCOMING ADAPTATION FROM THOSE FACES OF THE BUILDING.

DESIGN COMPITITION

THIS SITE WAS SPECIFICALLY CHOOSEN BECAUSE IT IS A TRANSITIONAL INTERSECTION LEADING TO BHASMASUR HILL AND CHANDRAGIRI HILL. THEREFORE, THIS PLACE COULD SERVE AS A RESTING SPOT FOR THE HIKERS AND ALSO AS A RELAXATION AREA WITH A SCENIC VIEW OF THE KATHMANDU VALLEY
