SAA is an interdisciplinary studio where artists, architects and other creative professionals collaborate and work on projects that bridge the gap between art and architectural design to blend artistic expression with functional design. SAA studio is established with the vision of gradually being the hub of creativity and innovation, fostering collaboration, experimentation and the development of artistic and architectural ideas.
“We bring two different yet similar creative practices under the same studio, working on new ways to interweave both into each other to create artistic, monumental yet down to earth spaces that inspires the artist within the users.”
Art and architecture are two closely related fields that have played significant roles in human culture and civilization throughout history. They encompass a wide range of creative and aesthetic expressions that reflect the values, beliefs, and aspirations of societies. Architecture is a from of art, one of the many branches of fine art which has been practiced since the modern human civilization. Art is the human activity that creates visual, auditory and performing artworks through artistic creation and expresses the emotions and idea of aesthetics along with the artist's imagination. Architecture is about creating buildings and usable spaces which inspire us and ultimately are the best work of art in which we can thrive. So art and architecture go hand in hand.
We understand the indispensable interconnection of art, architecture and design, so rather than practicing each individually on their own we have combined these practices under the same roof, still practicing the same works while constantly drawing inspiration from each other's works for a more dynamic approach in the creative process. Thus, SAA Studio was born which is a first of its kind interdisciplinary creative studio of Nepal. The studio has three major departments - the Art & Curating department, Architecture & Design department and the Management department. These three departments each overlook into their respective part while providing ideas and working on solutions to bring forward the best possible outcome.
In summary, art and architecture are interconnected disciplines that have and will continue to shape human experiences, culture, and the physical environment. We work towards blurring the line between these two disciplines, leading to exciting opportunities for creative expression and exploration.
