HERITAGE YALA With a tag line of ‘creativity in every sphere’, Yala strives to provide and inspire just that - creativity in every sphere. Yala Mandala designs, develops and manufactures products and services that are inspired by the local community and their trade skills. The products at Yala include jewellery, natural buttons, paper products, knitwear, clothing and accessories, natural rugs, candles, bath and beauty products, paintings, furniture and furnishing, artefacts and collectables. All products of Yala are handcrafted in Nepal. The gallery, at the ‘Rajbhandari House’ is a fusion of art, craft, tradition and architecture which presents the unique yet traditional products of Yala in a jovial atmosphere of a traditional mud and timber based building. Yala also promotes local and traditional art by hosting events dedicated to and presenting the local music, food etc. Heritage is not limited to its tangible products, every aspect of this tradition, from the art to the rituals and the beliefs should be experienced. So at Yala, it is not only the products but the atmosphere and the energy of the place that one can experience, especially during these events and during the sessions of music therapy and cooking classes. No aspect of the tradition is compromised for the benefit of the visitor, instead the visitor blends in the experience and perceives as per their comfort. Another initiative at Yala is the promotion of traditional architecture by preserving and renovating abandoned or neglected buildings and inserting activities in such spaces, starting from their own office space opposite to the gallery. • ‘Renovation for Adaptive Reuse’ is an initiative of SPACES to feature buildings and spaces that have been renovated or rather reused inserting new activities and hence new life into places that at one point seemed to have served their purpose. The Rajbhandari House with its history of transformation and adaptation, and its current occupancy promoting the art and craft of Nepal, is a splendid example of what can be achieved, even with minimal intervention. A space that is quite, calm, well lighted, well ventilated, thermally comfortable and reminiscing the past of the rich Nepali culture, the quarters of Yala showcase all that is beautiful about Nepal and also inspire people to create beauty incessantly.
