Travelling Chautaris

Nepal

A truly remarkable architectural project in which our coated KA-46 fabric serves as a key component of a traditional Nepalese chautari. This initiative was developed by T.NUA Collective in collaboration with the Siddhartha Arts Foundation, ABARI (Adobe and Bamboo Research Institute), and artist Sneha Shrestha, combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design and durable material solutions.

Our Polycotton KA46 coated fabric has been selected for the remarkable Travelling Chautaris project, developed by T.NUA Collective in collaboration with the Siddhartha Arts Foundation, ABARI (Adobe and Bamboo Research Institute), and artist Sneha Shrestha.

Inspired by the traditional Nepalese chautari โ€“ communal gathering and resting places with a history spanning more than 900 years โ€“ these two mobile architectural sculptures are designed to travel between different locations across Nepal and beyond. Their purpose is to bring people together, fostering dialogue, cultural exchange, and social connection.

For this unique project, our Polycotton KA46 coated fabric was chosen as a durable and weather-resistant canvas solution integrated into the structures. The combination of performance, aesthetics, and reliability made the material particularly well-suited for this innovative architectural application.

We are proud to see our technical textiles contributing to projects where tradition, art, architecture, and community engagement come together.
