Our Architectural Design Services

• Architectural Drawings

Architectural drawings are a core part of our architectural design services. We develop architectural drawings based on your site conditions, land shape, space requirements, functional needs, lifestyle, and design preferences. Our architects create designs that are functional, make efficient use of available space, and are visually appealing, while considering practical construction requirements.

 

• 2D Floor Planning

ST Builders develops 2D floor plans that focus on the practical layout and arrangement of spaces within your building. Our architects plan rooms, walls, windows, doors, staircases, and circulation based on your requirements, available space, and design preferences. For example, if you prefer an open-space layout, we minimize unnecessary partitions, while appropriate window placement can be incorporated to maximize natural light.

 

• Space planning

Whether you are looking for residential or commercial architectural design, our team plans your available space to make it functional, comfortable, and efficient. For residential projects, we create practical and comfortable living spaces that suit your lifestyle and daily needs. For commercial projects, we develop well-organized layouts that support smooth movement, efficient use of space, and the intended activities of the business.

 

• Vastu-Based Planning

If Vastu is important to you, ST Builders can incorporate Vastu principles into your architectural design and space planning. We consider Vastu Shastra guidelines when planning the building orientation, entrance, room placement, bathrooms, kitchen, bedrooms, and other spaces. Where required, we also coordinate with Vastu experts to incorporate their recommendations into the architectural design.

 

• 3D Design and Rendering

Our team creates 3D visualizations of your project to help you understand how the building will look before construction begins. Our 3D renderings allow you to visualize the overall appearance of both the interior and exterior, including materials, colors, proportions, façade details, and other architectural elements. We develop the visualizations according to your preferences and project requirements, and necessary revisions can be made based on your feedback before the design is finalized.

 

• Municipal Drawings & Naksa Pass

For municipal approval, ST Builders prepares the required municipal drawings and supporting documents for your building project. We develop the drawings based on applicable municipal requirements, including setback rules and other building regulations, while following the relevant provisions of the Nepal Building Code (NBC). We also assign a team member to assist you throughout the naksa pass process, including coordination and submission of the required documents.

 

• Construction Drawings

ST Builders prepares construction drawings to help building contractors accurately execute the design. These drawings provide the necessary dimensions and details required to turn the architectural design into an actual building.

Our Architectural Design Process

1
Initial Consultation & Site Assessment

We discuss your requirements, site conditions, land shape, area, dimensions, project goals, lifestyle, and design preferences. Our team assesses the available site information to understand the opportunities and limitations of the property before developing the design.

2
Conceptual Design & Space Planning

We develop the initial design concept, floor plan, space arrangement, building orientation, and overall building form based on your requirements, site conditions, and Vastu preferences, where applicable.

3
Schematic Design & 3D Visualization

We create 3D visualizations of the proposed design to help you understand the overall appearance of your building before construction begins. This allows you to visualize the proposed interior and exterior and review the design before it is finalized.

4
Design Development & Working Drawings

After reviewing your feedback, we refine and finalize the design as needed. We then prepare detailed working drawings required for construction, ensuring that the finalized architectural design can be accurately executed on site.

5
Technical Coordination

We coordinate the architectural drawings with the required technical drawings, including structural, electrical, and plumbing designs, to ensure that different aspects of the building design work together properly and can be implemented smoothly during construction.

6
Municipal Submission & Approval Assistance

We prepare the required municipal approval drawings and supporting documents for your project. Our team also assists you throughout the naksa pass process, including document submission and coordination with the concerned municipality.
