I am a 3rd year undergraduate student of architecture, I wanted to learn architecture because of the buildings around me as well as the valley overall. I knew almost nothing while joining this field except architects designed builgings. But after threee years of studying, I have grown to know all the hidden aspects of designing a space.

The site laying inside a historic monument, Balmandir had an eerie atmosphere with overgrown vines climbing the building and shadow of the huge trees. I wanted to preserve that feeling with conservation of trees as well as isolating the site from the surrounding with trees and nature. This resulted in a space isolated from the urban landscape around the site and created a space where you can get lost in the nature. It carries memory of the past mixed in with nature.

People cannot see the museum from the road and have to travel through a tunnel which leads to a site of the Balmandir framed with tunnel walls. Balmandir is also reflected on the water infront of it as well as can be seen form undergroung galleries. I have also created enclosed spaces like on the right which leads to a open spcae and inside the Balmandir.

A paper factory that recycles paper rather than manufacturing it from scrach as there are many educational and governmental institutions that can provide a lot of paper. The recycling is situated at the top of the site for privacy and most of the public activities are kept near the entrance. There is an exibition space for the paper products and a retail for the handicraft paper products. The factory uses folded plate roofs inspired from paper folds.
TAKING THE MOST COMMON WASTE PRODUCED NEARYBY THE SITE (I.E. PAPER) FROM THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AND GOVERNMENTAL OFFICES.
RECYCLING THE PAPER TO CREATE VARIOUS PRODUCTS LIKE PAPER BAGS,COPY, NAPKINS, HANDCRAFTED PAPERS, ETC.

The site was located in Pulchowk with educational institutions around it, so I wanted to create a cafeteria for the students. The cafe was ment for the students for gathering and studying as there arent a lot of spaces for that purpose except the schools and colleges. The cafe features a library with a lot of light and greenary to create a pleasing space for studing. And the form was inspired from books to represent students and library.

The site is open to three roadway maing the entrance easy for both pedestrian and vehicles. With the main focus on the library, where we enter from the ground floor with a mezzanine floor acessible form the inside. I have limited the differently abled spcaes on the ground floor for ease of travel. The dining spaces are varied for various purposes with spaces outside as well.

The curvilinear pavilion designed herein represents an innovative approach to public space architecture, blending seamlessly with the existing environment while offering a unique experience for pedestrians. This pavilion aims to create a harmonious coexistence between man-made structures, vegetation, and historical elements. It is a multipurpose pavilion with spaces to rest, backdrops for pictures, and othe outgoning activities.

The sympathetic extension proposed for the Juddha Barun-Yantra socio-cultural center integrates structural steel-backed platforms into the underused courtyard, creating a versatile multidisciplinary space. Emphasizing community engagement, the design incorporates forums, discussions, and a dedicated library with digital archives, while outdoor gathering spaces promote interaction among locals and foreign students.
RECOGNIZING THE SITE AS A SOCIO-CULTURAL AND ECONOMICAL HUB OF KATHMANDU AND PROPOSAL OF A SOCIO-CULTURAL CENTER
RETAINING THE HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE AND SENTIMENTS WHILE ALLOWING REINTEGRATION BY ON THE UNDERUSED SPACES
CREATING PLATFORMS FOR MULTIDISCIPLINARY ACTIVITIES AS EXPERIENCE AND INFORMATION EXCHANGE FOR THE PEOPLE
Addressing the underused courtyard, the design integrates structural steel-backed platforms, forming a multidisciplinary space. Multidisciplinary spaces are conceptually open-ended and can be catered to multiple functions resulting to a massive footprint with minimal obstruction. The intervention made has been done with use of traditional materials like brick platforms, wooden frames and staircases.
