The construction landscape in Nepal is on the brink of a major transformation. To integrate modern technology, sustainable designs, and affordable housing solutions, the Ghar Nirman Foundation is set to host the highly anticipated “Ghar Nirman Fest 2082.”
Affordable Housing in Nepal
Scheduled to take place at Bhrikutimandap, Kathmandu, from Poush 12 to 15 (December 27–30, 2025), this exhibition is not just a trade fair but a comprehensive ecosystem designed for anyone looking to build their dream home.
A Platform for Modern & Affordable Housing
One of the core highlights of Ghar Nirman Fest 2082 is the introduction of low-cost housing solutions. In an era where construction costs are skyrocketing, the fest will showcase:
The 6-Lakh Rupee Home: Practical designs for families looking for budget-friendly yet sturdy housing.
Income-Generating Homes (Kamaune Ghar): Smart architectural designs that allow homeowners to utilize parts of their property for commercial or rental income.
Innovative Concepts: From Orchid Villas and White Rooms to the rapidly deployable Dome Houses and the curiosity-piquing Upside-Down House (Ulto Ghar).
Setting World Records: The Global Stage
The 2082 edition is set to make history. Organizers have prepared the world’s largest brick, aiming for a Guinness World Record.
This brick, made entirely of Nepalese raw materials and local craftsmanship, symbolizes Nepal’s self-reliance in the construction sector.
Additionally, in collaboration with Jasmin Paints, the fest will display the world’s largest Dhaka Topi, celebrating Nepal’s rich cultural heritage alongside its industrial growth.
Key Attractions & Activities
150+ Exhibition Stalls: Featuring top brands like Shivam Cement (Premium Sponsor), Plumber Pipes (Main Partner), Asian Paints, and Nepovit Tiles.
