Practice ethos — architecture as a dialogue
We design spaces that respond to context, function, and the way people experience them.
From private sanctuaries and hospitality destinations to regional civic gateways, D Sketchbook unites architecture, engineering, and execution through a collaborative, context-driven methodology.
Founded in Kathmandu in 2016, our multidisciplinary practice resists generic imported templates. In Nepal's diverse geography — stretching from the seismic mountain valleys to the subtropical plains — buildings must be engineered for structural resilience, passive thermal comfort, and enduring cultural resonance.
