STUDENT HOUSING - Design Studio V A housing project for students of Dhankuta Multiple Campus, providing enough space for the accomodation of 180 students,while also catering their needs by including Mess hall, Multipurpose Hall and related programs.

The site, nestled on the lush hillside of Dhankuta, is positioned between the old and new blocks of Dhankuta Multiple Campus. Though the steep journey can be exhausting, the stunning views of cloud-covered hills provide a calming respite from the strain.

Existing Boys Hostel

Underpass at staff quarter

As you move through the site, the older DMC blocks come into view, with their unique angled and stepped forms flowing naturally with the sloping landscape. These dynamic shapes create captivating perspectives and spatial experiences throughout the area. Two main pathways run through the site, connecting the old and new blocks.

The project’s goal is to design student housing for 180 female students, blending harmoniously with the existing surroundings. Located in the upper left section of the site, the housing intersects the upper path.

Interconnected blocks, linked by bridges, form an underpass that acts as a transitional space.

Students from the new blocks are greeted by a viewing point with sweeping hilltop vistas.

The mess hall, situated below the housing, connects to the lower pathway, ensuring easy access to both the housing and educational blocks. Below this, the recreational area includes a small open-air theater, a multifunctional hall, a fitness space, and multipurpose rooms, offering various communal activities.

RESIDENCE - Design Studio III Residence project for a family of a Musician Father, Mother as Teacher, and their two children with their two Grandparents supported by a maid.

The Site, located at Dharan, in a Residential Neighbourhood just a few meters from the Koshi Highway.

It is touched by the main road parallel to the western side and a subsidiary road, perpendicularly on the eastern side, giving two access points. Dharan’s climate being on the hotter side, the design is based on courtyard planning with Canonic design principles.

Final Form

The axis created by the two roads connecting to site acts a path for car park in both direction.

The spaces are divided into three types, private, selective private, and semi private.

Spaces like bedrooms are private, while dining and studios are selectively private.

SITE PLAN

The adjadency is also selective in this design.

Grandparents room is on the groundfloor closer to the maids room by which it is easier for the maid to easily take care of them in an instant.

The music studio is closer to living room and is buffered by a washroom towards Grandparents room.

The mother’s studio, on first floor, is closer to childrens room for ease in needing to take care of them.

An open verandah space is also designed as a recreational space.

The extruding elements creates interesting sciography on the walls of the building
