Architectural Design
Available across Nepal
We design buildings that keep nature intact, use local materials, and blend old structures with new ideas for practical, sustainable spaces.

- Measure Drawing: Accurate mapping of existing walls, levels, and structural members.
- Condition Assessment: Identification of elements for retention (teak beams, flooring) versus demolition.
Phase 2: Intervention Strategy
- Fusion Design: Modern insertions such as steel staircases or glass extensions to contrast old structures.
- De-cluttering: Strategy to strip back layers of paint or plaster to reveal original stone or brick.
Phase 3: Retrofitting Details
- Structural Strengthening: Architectural detailing for reinforcing old walls or adding new roofs.
- Material Salvage Plan: Reutilization plan for dismantled doors, windows, and tiles to minimize waste.
Phase 4: Execution Supervision

About Architectural Design
What Architecture Means to Us
Architecture, for us, is more than just putting up walls. It’s about catching that feeling when light hits a room just right, or when a breeze sneaks in through a jali (screen). We’re always trying to find that sweet spot where nature and living come together, with as little fuss as possible. Slow, playful, and a bit wild - that’s our vibe.
How We Design
We treat every project like a chat between the land, the light, and the people who’ll use it. Our thing is green architecture solutions - we design so trees stay put and rocks get shown off, not bulldozed. Spaces flow from inside to outside, and we stick to “reduce, reuse, recycle” wherever we can. If you’re into sustainable building materials, expect stone, brick, wood, and concrete that actually look and feel real.
Spaces We Create
- Homes with big windows and floating roofs that let you breathe
- Community hangouts - breweries, resorts, centers where people actually connect
- Projects with a twist, like buildings made from shipping containers or bits of old planes
Mixing Old and New
We love a good story, especially when it means saving an old building. Adaptive reuse architecture is a big deal for us. We patch history with something fresh, keep the soul, but add some drama.
Working Together
Every project is a mashup of design, art, and what you care about. We listen, we toss ideas around, and together we build a space that’s yours.

My Story
We’re Mistry Architects, but friends call us ‘Thugs of Mistry’s’—a name Sharukh, our late founder, tossed around with love and laughter. Our studio’s a wild mix of art, nature, and pure team energy. We’re big on celebrations, be it Dasara or random road trips. For us, it’s about building spaces where you feel the earth and the people—sometimes messy, always full of heart.
My Work
What We Do - We design homes, schools, hotels, interiors, and take on conservation and socially relevant architecture.
Nature-Centric Design - Our buildings vibe with local flora, rewilded living spaces, and keep the landscape breathing.
Handmade & Local Materials - We love exposed concrete, achukal brick, and handmade vernacular details that show off craft.
Art, Function & Bio-Inspiration - Design, art, and bio-inspired ideas mix together—spaces aren’t just useful, but a bit magical too.
Old Meets New - We blend existing structures with fresh ideas; drama and learning come from weaving stories together.
