Golf In Small Spaces
A Collaboration of Himalayas Golf X Faldo Design
Growing Golf By Increasing Accessibility And Options To Play
Golf in Small Spaces is the vision of Sir Nick Faldo and Paul Jansen to make golf more fun, accessible, and inviting for all ages and skill levels.
With a shared passion for course design and growing the game, they created compact, purpose-built golf spaces that attract new players and help experienced golfers sharpen their skills.
These Small Space solutions adapt to modern lifestyles—offering quicker, more relaxed ways to play. Ideal for beginners and casual golfers, they work as stand-alone facilities or as additions to existing courses, ranges, and resorts.

“Golf In Small Spaces provides functional and sustainable solutions for golf outside of conventional green grass courses. I am thrilled to bring this to life with Paul Jansen and Himalayas Golf.”
- Sir Nick Faldo
Today’s Challenges:
Limited Time
Many golfers don’t have 4–5 hours for 18 holes. Shorter play options could help attract and retain more golfers.
Limited Land
Full-sized courses are costly and need large parcels of land—often unavailable in urban areas—limiting growth and accessibility.
Limited Practice
Most facilities don’t support focused short game practice, despite 60–65% of golf being played within 100 yards.
