SUPER TALAD
Talad Noi, Bangkok Architectural Design: Auction House INDA YEAR 4 FALL 2020
Super Talad manifests the relationship between human, object, and time. The new project development system that will reevaluate the value of times by transforming the slow overlooked objects to valuable items. Time is not a numerical measurement, time is what’s happening. Objects are a sequence of events and humans are a Time-Taker. As time passes, things deteriorate and become a slow object. Looking in the city of Bangkok, Talad Noi is a hidden district where people can experience slowness in the landscape. The neighborhood is full of obsolete architecture and premises, where objects are living on a borrowed time.
SUPER TALAD
Time is not a numerical measurement, it is an event, What happened yesterday, today, and tomorrow ar events; it never stops but could speed up and slow down, like when we feel stress or having deadlines, we and bored time seems to be longer. We could estimate time without using a clock, with our emotions and wh by a collection of occurrences, Thingslike or object are nothing more than a sequence of events. Each obj like us human beings. There are rising action, climax, and falling action like our emotions, w
re eventbased time. Time labels the changes of these feel like time passes fast while when we are depressed hat’s happening in the environment. We are surrounded ject has a different length of past, present, and future which form its own diascape of event-based time.
FAST TWITCH / SLOW DANCE
From scale of objects to architecture, looking at Talad Noi, a small neighborhood situated in busy Charoenkrung District of Bangkok, the site full of obsolete structures. Its tactility, and objects deteriorations give a sense of slowness on site. It is a slow landscape that is overflowing with long diascape objects in the falling stage of lifespan and architecture that is obsolete. As time passed, a slow landscape are living on a borrowed time, adapting by integrating a temporary structure or a short diascape objects ,as it extend the diascape of a slow objects. The slow objects are decaying and dying by reusing it will extend their lifespan, with a TIMETAKER workshop, the intervention allows people to extend the time of an overlooked everyday slow objects in the Talad Noi area.
As a project developer I’m proposing an alternative way of gentrification by designing a supermarket typology system that replace the slow, dying architecture in Talad Noi district. Super Talad will collect slow objects, fragments ,and leftovers from demolition to utilized as part of construction. The aim of Super Talad is to raise values of slowness in the context, in terms of time and economical values. Participants will experience the transition from slow to fast within as they walk through space. We as a timetaker will be able to see the process of extending an object’s time. Besides, the auction house design allows participants to raise values of processed objects, in which the auction event itself reveals that forgotten objects become something with high value. Apart from the space that manifests the idea of time, the facade design displays the idea of slow and fast in correspondence to interior space, through the use of materiality representations. Super Talad is a development project that focuses on extending the TIME VALUES of objects and architecture in Talad Noi. We proposed an alternative method of an archive through the notion of circular economy.

Casa Milà, Barcelona Criticism Proposal: Mass Preservation INDA YEAR 3 FALL 2019
Has preservation become a dangerous epidemic? (F)UNESCO critiques towards UNESCO, the definition and method of preservation by creating an objection through (fake) mass preservation and replicas of Casa Mila. In the fact that Casa Mila has always been renovated, conserved, and froze from the 1980s, (F)UNESCO emphasized that preservation is an act of obsolescence. The manifesto of mass preservation reflects the amount of UNESCO protected (fake) cultural heritage around world. A global phenomenon in which the heritage has been sanitized and lose a sense of identity that the building accumulates over time. Replications are one of the methods to preserve architecture theory and style. The notion of copy and paste questions the role of architects in the future, in which the machine learning, GAN, become the tools and designer in Architectural field.
(F)UNESCO
(F)UNESCO establishes the method of preservation to retrieve the heritage as PRESERVATION gives infinite experience, PRESERVATION prolongs the existence of cultural property and kept the building UNCHANGED. PRESERVATION is going to occur everywhere as (F)UNESCO is populating Casa Mila. With the intervention of Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) an Ai system as a tool to replicate and generates generations of Casa Mila to be situated globally.

MASS PRESERVATION
GAN is the network that was trained with data set to generate random noise to new output or producing cloning, with discriminator is another network that detects realness and fakeness in generator output, it sent feedback to the generator. The loop makes the generator understand components and could produce the replicas of the input. In architecture, GAN could identify components of buildings and objects through the analysis of data and are able to produce spatial configuration, furniture, exterior appearance, surrounding site, and situated locations. The data set are categorized base on the VPN address of each city that replicas of Casa Mila will be situated. Each VPN code provides a different data set of Casa Mila and cultural housing base on different contexts. In which GAN could generate diverse typology and design of Casa Mila with an alteration of degree in fakeness. For example, Hong Kong Mila house, 4th generation, is a 40-storeys high and a unit size is approximately 20sq meters, in which the design is related to the contextual housing typology.

MASS PRESERVATION
In 2019, Casa Mila has come to a decision whether or not the building should be demolished, due to its greatest decay to the condition of the estate. Tourist has experience dissatisfaction on aged rooms where police have investigated and speculated that hackers, (F)UNESCO, an opposed company, criticized and questioned UNESCO the definition and procedures of preservation. In fact, (F)UNESCO has stealthily intervened Casa Mila, bringing to the state of deterioration and decayed in relation to its actual age and present context. With the methodology of faking and fasting the aging to allow experience of fake tactility, monumentality, and authenticity. Referred to philosopher Viollet De Luc, the process of falsification is a way of preservation.
(F)UNESCO
With the establishment of a system that controls and expands the quantity of (fake)aging effects wh accessibility and crowdedness. The relationship of energy transferred between humans and objects ge material to deteriorate. The analysis of the falsification process present the levels of decay implied on details, it could differentiate between new and fake aged finish. In order to apply precisely the effects

THE CITY ESCAPE
Bangkachao, Bangkok Architectural Design: City Hotel INDA YEAR 4 SPRING 2021
The City Escape is a new getaway destination for Bangkok city dwellers. A new staycation phenomenon that offers an accommodations, cycling infrastructure, treetop trail, and farmer’s market just across the Chaophraya River. The hotel is situated over the edge of Bangkachao, forming an invisible crossway connecting the Bangkok cycling network. Having an elevated infrastructure that forms a seamless threshold creating an undetermined void between the hotel and the public. The hotel is kickstarting agricultural enterprises in the local community, where agricultural practices are being used as a method of extending private premises to the public commons.
THE CITY ESCAPE
The hotel acts as a city lobby, providing a level of privacy for the hotel guests, through the agrof room clusters. In addition, the cultivation offers guests a farm-to-table meal. The hotel became a the concept of threshold, referred to the book “Towards the city of Threshold” by Stavrides. Thresh , hotel is an aimless isolated place to escape the ordinary. Bangkachao has a strong sense of detachm infrastructure for tourist. The infrastructure becomes the major threshold, and along the route, re
forest cultivation method that creates a hierarchical porosity between the walkway and the guest a catalyst of what a city lobby and elevated walkway could be. The project begins from looking at hold is a stage of extending private space to public. Another key concept is a sense of placelessness ment embed within the cityscapes of Bangkok, the area has been urbanized and developed a cycling evealing different voids, beyond the eye levels between the infrastructure and private residences.

CIVIC BORDER Border Line between Myanmar & Kanchanaburi Thailand Architectural Design: Statelesss Community INDA YEAR 3 SPRING 2020
On the western side of Kanchanaburi, a long terrain barrier stretching across the borderline splits Thailand and Myanmar. The borders are filled with historical quality and transnational activity in relevance to people, architecture, and economics. Physical entities have intervened along the natural borders, as a corridor for flows of infrastructure, resources, and people. The geological conditions have influenced SEZ development to enhance accessibility and productivity in the rural setting. In spite of the fact that the development forced migrations and caused transnational issues. Civic border is a community-based infrastructure that provides an alternative living in the non-discriminated society for indigenous local Thai and Burmese who were forced out from their job due to SEZ development across the borderline. Inhabitants will be able to participate civic engagement where they will be able to involve in the construction process to achieve their traditional housing and community space.
CIVIC BORDER
BORDERLINE ANALYSIS Immigration Checkpoints
Infrastructure and Border Conditions
Why does border exits? Kanchanaburi is located on the Western side of Thailand, a neighbor of Myanmar. The development of warehouse, customs, transportation center of SEZ project was built along the route from Kanchanaburi border area to Dawei city, they have forced local villagers in the rural nearby out from their home and farmland. It leads to the movement of resettlement, migrating to Kanchanaburi for economic opportunity. Yet, the job crisis continues as Burmese labor overtook Thai labor jobs nearby the border and in the city illegally.
STATELESS COMMUNITY
The structure of Civic Border is strategically configured to encourage interactions among inhabitants from community areas to a neighborhood gathering and individual living. Settlers will first apply the primitive methods of living by making essentials such as basic tools, domestic cultivation, and artifacts. To enhance the potential of local resources, they will develop additional constructions for an enclosure, partition in shared space as well as extensions of individual dwelling units. Inhabitants depend on cultivation activity for sustenance, as they enhance productivity in the natural landscape, they start to become fully self-sufficient. The civic border provides a spatial opportunity for settlers to develop domestic farming as they used to do back in their homeland.

RECYCLED-FIGURATIONS
Mumbai, India Architectural Design: Temporary Structure INDA YEAR 2 FALL 2018
Trash are gold for homeless people, they can use trash to eat and drink, making clothes, and build houses. The cart that will allows people to collect trash around the streets with a space they can host the workshop. Where it allows people to learn new skills that becomes a notion of self-sufficiency for homeless people. As they are collecting trash for producing a product, they are reducing the amount of trash on the street as well, these people are actually trash processing machine.

The basic necessity was translated into three scales which are food, cloth, and shelter. With an intention that it was specifically designed for homeless people, the messages was communicated through the casette tape. Suggesting the design of typical cart that wouldn't create a curiousity to the public. The transformative cart provided a space for workshop with an attached trash cage for them to collect specific trash for each workshop. Building their own cart offers an opportunity for them to experiencing different routes of the street condition. In which, they could started to created the system of coding and communication among themselves to suggest the route with abundant of different resources.
The quantity and quality of waste are uncontrol, where people start to adapt resources and techniques. The cart itself could attached into a triangular modular, where it creates an aggregations of cart that could form an event of exchanges. The color coding system guides the formation, whereby the system is uncontrollable as they started to have a self-preference through the process of construction. After the event, they could continue the cart could be transformed into an enclosed housing space. The workshop become a collective tools of knowledge for the homeless community, where it could continue to adapt and expand, offering more opportunities in other area and new generations.

CRAFTING MATERIAL PERFORMANCE
INDA x Disjunction Studio DEX WORKSHOP, Bangkok Active Bending Structure Fabrication INDA YEAR 3 2020 // TEAM DESIGN
The principle of Active Bending can be defined as the deformation of an elastic material in a controlled manner in order to achieve variable states of stiffness. The structure is composed of two beended arches with similar curvatures degree. The fabrication of bended timber sheets required a stable footing and cable system to hold the loads of the sturcture.
ACTIVE BENDING
The wood grain is the main factor to considered during fabrication, as it will effect the curvature of the form. We have explore the parameters of geometry and form to set the anchor points, bounding box, height and width. The relationship of loads and curvature set rules for weaving cable system. The contracted point of two arches and curvatures set bending position, inward or outward. Effecting the joinery and patterns of cable tension, the system of an active bending form works in hierarchy of scale. FORMS STUDY & PROTOTYPE
