About Taragaon Studio
Formerly the Nepal House Project, this structure was designed by Pritzker Prize winner Japanese architect Shigeru Ban in 2015, as a resilient prototype in response to a devastating earthquake of 7.8 magnitude in the region, which obliterated both lives and the infrastructure of our landscape.
About Taragaon Studio
Shigeru Ban is internationally recognized for his innovative work on materiality and structures and founded his firm, Shigeru Ban Architects (SBA), in 1985, which currently has offices in Tokyo, Paris, and New York. His practice is deeply rooted on structural rationality, environmental sustainability, and spatial purity.
Today, this prototype transforms into a dynamic laboratory for contemporary artists and creative practitioners as an open-call studio space. Located in the midst of our sculpture garden, this studio transforms into a quiet ,reflective, and inspired space for new ideas.
