Design Square is an architectural and interior designing company situated in Talchhikhel, Mahalaxmisthan, Lalitpur. We work across residential, commercial, hospitality, and institutional projects, carrying each one from early design through construction supervision. Design comes first, but so does whether the thing actually stands up and works the way it should.
Design Square was founded in 2069 BS by architect Raj Krishna Maharjan. He started the firm with a simple goal. Nepal had plenty of architects who could draw something beautiful, but not enough who could also make sure it got built right. We're still holding ourselves to that. Not chasing buildings that photograph well and fall apart in practice. We want spaces people can actually live and work in for decades.
Our services cover the whole process, not just the drawings. We handle architectural design, structural design, interior design, renovation, and construction supervision. We also handle contract administration if a client wants help managing the build itself. Most firms hand you a set of plans and wish you luck. We stay on one team, from the first meeting to the final walkthrough.
The Nepalgunj Airport Terminal shows this best. It's a 145,000 square foot project we designed for the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, built around an idea we call Clarity and Flow. The rooflines curve like aircraft wings. A large glazed dome sits at the center and opens the whole space up. Check-in, security, boarding, and baggage claim each get their own zone, so the terminal doesn't seize up when it's busy. Nepalgunj runs hot, and the monsoon is hard on buildings, so we used deep roof overhangs, high-performance glazing, and materials built to last. It now serves as the main gateway into western Nepal, and it's the project we point to when someone asks what we can handle.
Projects of such magnitude as the airport terminal can't proceed based on the efforts of just one individual. Salona Joshi, Architect Engineer, works alongside Raj Krishna Maharjan and the rest of the team during each phase of the project, starting from its design development and technical drawings right up until its site coordination and construction supervision. It requires a group that is committed all the way from the very first to the very last drawing. Clients aren't left managing things alone once the plans are signed off.
Home, restaurant, hotel, or something on the scale of an airport terminal, the process on our end stays the same. We listen first and design with a reason behind every choice. We stay involved until the finished space matches what was on paper. If you have a project in mind, reach out through our website or WhatsApp, and we'll walk you through what comes next.
