Lepcha Lyang | An amalgamation of Fable and Fabric

The Lepcha Abode aims to familiarize guests with rituals, stories, and the lifestyle of the Lepcha community. Their legend: Gift of the Grain, explains how the Lepchas received grain from Mayal Lyang. The design intent is to narrate this story through the journey in space. Pause points in the story are identified and stitched to each space in the resort. The Lepcha fabric has also been explored to bring out a tangible aspect to the spaces, bringing pivotal colours and patterns of the indigenous fabric to each of the spaces.
