This abstract presents an overview of the significance, objectives, and methodologies employed by such institutions to educate and inspire individuals in the realm of traditional music. This music hub is dedicated to safeguarding and transmitting age-old musical traditions from one generation to another. Through a curriculum that encompasses various forms of folk, ethnic, and indigenous music, these schools foster a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and encourage the preservation of intangible cultural heritage.The primary objectives of it include providing comprehensive music education, honing technical skills, and fostering creativity. Students are exposed to a wide array of traditional instruments, vocal techniques, and rhythmic patterns, enabling them to master their chosen art form and, in some cases, engage in crosscultural collaborations. Drawing upon established teaching methods and innovative approaches, traditional music schools create an immersive learning environment. Experienced instructors, often rooted in the traditions themselves, employ oral and aural methods alongside written notation to impart knowledge. This combination allows students to grasp the essence of traditional music, retaining its authenticity while adapting to modern pedagogical needs. In addition to formal instruction, these schools serve as community hubs, hosting performances, workshops, and cultural events. By actively engaging with the local community, they contribute to the enrichment of regional cultural identity and provide platforms for budding musicians to showcase their talents.Despite challenges posed by modernization and globalization, traditional music schools remain instrumental in safeguarding cultural expressions and nurturing a sense of belonging among individuals. As we navigate the complexities of the digital age, it is crucial to recognize and support the ongoing efforts of these institutions in preserving and revitalizing traditional music for future generations. 2023-08-01T00:00:00Z https://elibrary.khec.edu.np/handle/123456789/658 Title: RIVERFRONT RESORT AT RIVER KHADAM (Kerabari, Morang) Authors: Tulsi Kumari Das (740146) Abstract: Many civilizations have originated and flourished on the banks of rivers. Major cities all around the world are located at junctions of rivers and sea. Walking through the urban spaces and built environment, one certainly feels the ecosystem which is the product of our past. The environment has been serving humans for decades. The relationship between man nature and the built environment has been established in the past. But the various degrees of intervention in the course of time have threatened the life of people living in the same built environment. Improper land use, corrupted planning, and development guidelines, and irresponsible approach to dealing with the built environment has resulted in the separation of human society from the natural ecosystem. Rivers, being the representation factor for any city, have been highly polluted these days. The areas around the river have lost the attention of the public. Public spaces around rivers are now being exploited and encroached on. This era lacks platforms for self-expression, exchange, and experience, which could easily be designed in the waterfront development. The project is entitled to be “RIVERFRONT RESORT AT RIVER KHADAM”. This project is a sign of growth of our economy. This project not only deliver the value to this place but also adding some value to our nation. It brings one of opportunity for the people where they can get most benefits like employments, institution, residential etc. also environment. I thought if this type of project initiates in every state then our country called develop country. Recreation can produce economic and commercial benefits as well, both directly and indirectly. The direct economic benefits come from events and activities like spectator sports, stage shows and amusement parks. The indirect economic benefit of recreation is in the form of tourism. Many major recreational events and activities bring in people from far places. These people spend money in motels, restaurants and shops enhancing the local economy and thereby providing new jobs for its citizens. Another indirect economic benefit is the desirable quality that recreational facilities provide for a community, hence making it a more preferred area to work and live. Well-developed and adequate recreation and open space areas tend to attract and hold people in the community through their positive impact on individual lifestyles. 2023-08-01T00:00:00Z https://elibrary.khec.edu.np/handle/123456789/657 Title: ESPORTS HUB DESIGNING AN ESPORTS HUB EXPERIENCE Bhaktapur Authors: SURAJ GWACHHA 740145 Abstract: As the esports industry continues to grow in popularity, there is an increasing need for dedicated venues that provide an engaging and immersive experience for players and spectators alike. This undergraduate thesis explores the process of designing an esports hub experience that maximizes engagement and immersion, drawing on research from a variety of sources, including case studies of existing esports venues, interviews with players and industry experts, and best practices in experiential design. The project begins with an overview of the esports industry and its rapid growth, highlighting the need for venues that can accommodate the unique requirements of competitive gaming events while providing a memorable and immersive experience for visitors. It then examines the key elements of experiential design, including storytelling, theming, interactivity, and immersion, and how these principles can be applied to the design of an esports hub. Drawing on case studies of existing esports venues, the project identifies key design features that contribute to a successful esports hub experience, including customizable lighting and sound systems, high-quality visual displays, and flexible, modular spaces that can be adapted for different types of events. Interviews with players and industry experts provide additional insight into the needs and desires of the gaming community, informing the development of a comprehensive design proposal. The design proposal itself emphasizes the importance of creating a space that is both engaging and immersive, offering visitors a sense of excitement and energy that reflects the dynamic nature of competitive gaming. Key features of the design include a modular space that can be customized to accommodate different types of events, high-quality audio and visual systems, interactive elements that encourage visitor participation, and theming and storytelling elements that create a memorable and immersive experience.

Being a visually dominant creatures we highly rely on our visual senses but as a designer we must also consider other senses rather than just focusing on the sight. We must consider the safety and easy accessibility for all the users of the building. Before proceeding to design certain desk studies were done which included of the literature review, case studies and analysis .These studies rooted towards the barrier free environment design where the user group can move independentely. Purwanchal Gyanchakshu school, Namuna Machhindra School, Disabled service association were chosen for National case study whereas Hazelwood school, Center for blind and visually impaired were chosen for International Case study. Case studies were done considering the relevancy of the project. Then an appropriate site was chosen at Janagal, Banepa considering the services and utilities. The chosen site has different institution and differentently abled hospitals at a nearby proximity . While doing the project certain design approaches where considered such as zoning were done considering the users preferences, similarly simple planning were done. The changes in flooring materials were done such as a certain flooring material is used on the pathway whereas the flooring materials changes as we approach to the boundary of the buildings. Similarly the design is done considering all the senses. The student in the school will feel the building in the project through multisensory experiences. In conclusion, this school for visually impaired is an institutional building which includes of the school and training activities for the betterment of the visually impaired students which aim to provide quality education, independent living skills to the people with visual impairment. 2023-08-01T00:00:00Z
