An experiential space where the narration guides the paradox

The design idea is to work in angles

in both plans and form and provide
a dynamic and vibrant space that
encourages creativity, ideation and
growth of each individual through
collaborative spaces that enhances
networking and working outside
their comfort zone.

Introduction
The project was divided into two parts:
Study Phase and Design Phase. Badegaun
being on the verse of identity crisis and
destruction of the existing heritages, we
analysed the issues and proposed the
solutions in such a way that the heritages
are not compromised.

Issues
• Complicated property ownership
• The lack of an urban plan, owned
by the municipality
• Unplanned development in the
new town threatens the visual unity of
the Old Town.
• Failure to understand the need for
design guidance.
• The lack of access to private and/
or government capital and grants

Old Stories
• Satellite city of the traditional town
of Patan
• Historical Route to the settlement
through Tanga gate
• Historically gated City
• Historically designated resting
place on the way to Godawari
• Kal Bhairab built on the ruins and The current plan proposes a 22 m wide road through the badegaun settlement that if happens destroys the whole
as a vantage point of the city town of badegaun. So, a proposal was made in order to conserve the town and an alternate route was proposed

The town had its traditional route which now existed as an alleyway due to the new as restored
road. So, a proposal was made in which the traditional route was converted into a
heritage walk route going through the gates and main attraction points of the settle-
ment. This allowed the revival of the old settlement, their ways and their traditions.
