THA TIEN MARKET THA TIEN MARKET, LOCATED IN RATTANAKOSIN ISLAND, OPPOSITE TO WAT PO, IS ONE OF THE OLDEST MARKETS IN THE AREA. RESIDENTS AND RESTAURANTS OFTEN SHOP THERE FOR THE FRESHEST AND THE CHEAPEST. THE NEW THA TIEN MARKET WILL ACT AS A COMMUNITY MALL, HOLDING BOTH OLD VENDERS AND THE NEW ONES. THE MAIN CONCEPT OF THE MARKET IS TRANSLUCENT, AS USUALLY WE WOULD SEE HIDDEN SPOTS IN MARKETS, WHERE VENDERS KEEP THEIR STUFF, SEEMS DIRTY, SEEMS OLD. WITH THE NEW THA TIEN MARKET, EVERYTHING IS WHAT YOU SEE, THE STRUCTURE IS WHAT IT REALLY IS, NO ADD ONS. THE MAIN CIRCULATION TUBE IN THE MIDDLE WILL ACT AS A CONNECTION WAY BETWEEN PEOPLE WHO TRAVELS FROM BOAT AND PEOPLE WHO ENTERS FROM THE MAIN STREET, THE TUBE ACTS AS A CONNECTION VISUALLY AND PHYSICALLY. FROM THE TOP DOWN, A RECREATION AREA, USING TRUSS STRUCTURES TO CREATE WIDE SPANS, GOING THREE FLOORS DOWN WILL BE LITTLE SHOPS OPEN FOR RENTING, AS THIS PART OF THE MARKET IS WHAT WILL BE THE NEW GENERATION OF THA TIEN MARKET. OLD VENDERS WILL BE IN THE BASEMENT WITH OPEN VENTILATION. BASEMENT WILL BE PARTIALLY COVERED BY GROUND SO IT WILL STILL GET THE OPEN-AIR IDEA THAT WE WANT.

BAN PA DENG SCHOOL BAN PA DENG SCHOOL IS LOCATED IN RURAL AREA OF KANGKRACHAN DISTRICT, PETCHBURI. THE LAND HOLDING THE SCHOOL IS STEEP AND FAR FROM EVERYTHING SO THE SCHOOL NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO STAY ON ITS OWN AND SUSTAIN ITSELF. WITH MANY REQUIREMENTS, EVERY PART OF THE SCHOOL IS SEPARATED INTO SMALLER PARTS, FROM CLASSROOMS TO CANTEEN TO DORMITORY WINGS. WITH DIFFICULTIES IN BUILDING ARCHITECTURE THERE, THE BUILDING WILL NEED TO BE SYSTEMATIC AND EASY TO BUILD. WITH ABOVE CRITERIA, ALL THE SEPARATED BUILDINGS LOOK THE SAME, DIFFERENT IN SIZES AND THE LENGTH OF SPANS. IT IS EASILY VENTILATED AND RAIN PROOF. EVEN WITH LONG SPANNED ROOF, LIGHTS WILL STILL BE ABLE TO COME THROUGH.

CO WORKING SPACE STARTING FROM A REGULAR TOWNHOUSE IN BANGKOK, THE MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CREATE A CO-WORKING SPACE WITH RESIDENTIAL AREA COMBINED. THE OWNER OF THIS PROJECT, IS A GAY LADY WHO LIKES TO BIKE. THE CONCEPT OF THIS PROJECT IS “FUN” BUT WITH ALL THE FUN, THERE HAS TO BE PRIVACY HIDDEN IN IT. WHAT I DID IS THAT, I SEPARATED THE BUILDING INTO TWO PARTS, THE FRONT AND THE BACK, SO ON EACH FLOOR, THERE WILL BE AREAS FOR BOTH THE OWNER AND THE CO-WORKING SPACE USERS. THE WILL BE TWO STAIRS, RUN OPPOSITE TO EACH OTHER, WHICH WILL GIVE BOTH TWO GROUP OF USERS PRIVACY, WITHIN THE SAME FLOOR BUT NEVER SEE EACH OTHER. RESIDENTIAL AREAS WILL MAINLY BE ON THE THIRD AND FOURTH FLOOR BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE BEST VIEW AND ALSO GET SHADE FROM THE BIG TREE OUT FRONT. COLORS USING IN THIS PROJECT COMPRISES OF RED, BLUE AND NEON YELLOW. AS OF THESE COLORS GIVE ACTIVE ENERGY AND THESE COLORS ARE NOT COMPLICATED TO UNDERSTAND. SPACES IN THIS PROJECTS ARE VARY FROM SINGLE READING ZONE TO GROUP WORK AND SMALL CONFERENCES ROOM. AN OVER SCALED STAIRS AND BE FOUND ON THE TOP FACING THE VIEW OUTSIDE.

HOSTEL RENOVATION THE VERY FIRST QUESTION I ASKED MYSELF ON THIS PROJECT, IS WHAT I WANT THE USERS TO FEEL WHEN THEY COME HERE. DO I WANT IT TO BE FUN OR DO I WANT IT TO BE SOMETHING ELSE, SOMETHING DIFFERENT. SO THE IDEA OF ADVENTUROUS CAME UP AND IT MUST BE KINDA DANGEROUS OR INCONVENIENCE IF I GO 100% ON THAT WAY. SO I SLEPT ON IT AND TOM AND JERRY CAME UP. IT’S A CARTOON THAT’S BEEN AIR FOR A LONG TIME AND ALMOST EVERYONE KNOWS IT. PERFECT! AND THEY TRY TO KILL EACH OTHER ON PRETTY MUCH EVERY EPISODES, SO, GAME ON.I RESEARCHED MORE ABOUT TOM AND JERRY BECAUSE I WANT IT TO BE THE WHOLE THING NOT JUST PARTS OF IF. TURNED OUT IT WAS CREATED ON 1940s, SO I LOOKED FOR THE DECORATION STYLE THEY HAVE BACK THEN AND TRIED MY BEST TO IMPROVISED IT TO THIS WORK, SO PLEASE GO ALONG WITH ME.

BEING JERRY THE MOUSE MUST HAVE GONE EVERYWHERE IN THE HOUSE, SO IMAGINE THIS AS A HOUSE, FROM THE BASEMENT ON TO THE TOP. ON THIS FIRST FLOOR, PROJECTING THE FEELING OF BASEMENT, PLYWOOD FRAMES, CONCRETE FLOOR.

ON THE SECOND FLOOR, AS A SMALL MOUSE, EVERYTHING IS BIG FROM ITS P O I N T O F V I E W. O V E R S C A L E D OBJECTS ARE USED IN THIS FLOOR, S U C H A S A V E R Y B I G S TA I R S REPRESENTING PIANO WHICH IN AN EPISODE, JERRY WAS RUNNING ON AND A VERY BIG FISH BONE SEAT WHICH CAN BE SEEN FROM ABOVE FLOORS AS WELL.

N O W T H AT JERRY HAS R U N AWAY FROM TOM, FAR FROM THE PIANO, HE HAS COME TO HIDE IN SERVICE A R E A S , REPRESENTING SERVICE IN MANY PIPES SUCH AS WATER PIPES IN BLUE

THE PIPES’S FUNCTIONS ARE USED FOR P R I V A T E SEATINGS AND THE STAIRS ON THIS FLOOR ARE CIRCULAR BECAUSE WE ARE GOING DEEP INTO J E R R Y ’ S HIDDEN CAVE.

THE 16 BEDS DORMITORY IS ON THE TOP FLOOR. ON THIS FLOOR REPRESENTING JERRY’S HIDDEN CHEESE CAVE. THERE ARE 3 TYPES OF CHEESE BEDS ANF OF COURSE, YELLOW REPRESENTS CHEESE. SINCE IT’S JERRY’S HIDING SPOT, IT MUST BE FAR INTO THE WALL. SO GREY COLORS ARE USED AS FLOORING.

LIBRARY RENOVATION THE LIBRARY USED TO BE AN OFFICE FOR CHULALONGKORN UNIVERSITY’S STAFF. LOCATED IN SAMYAM. THE PROJECT IS TO TURN THIS OFFICE INTO A COMMUNITY LIBRARY. THE CONCEPT OF THIS LIBRARY IS “A NEIGHBOR’S HOUSE” BY USING THIS CONCEPT, IT MEANS THAT THIS LIBRARY WILL ACT AS NEIGHBORS AND USERS SHOULD HAVE NO FEAR IN USING IT. THE LIBRARY IS SEPARATED INTO THREE ZONES VERTICALLY AND CONNECTED BY SHARED SPACES CREATED ON EACH FLOOR. THE THREE SEPARATED ZONES REPRESENTS TOWNHOUSE-SHAPE-LIKE BUILDING. MOST OF THE RESIDENTS LIVING IN SAMYAM AREA ARE OLDERY OF CHINESE DESCENT. MATERIALS AND FURNITURE SELECTED IN THIS PROJECT ARE MIXED BETWEEN STATE OF THE ART PIECE OF PRODUCTS AND SOME OF THE OLDIE PRODUCTS WITH A SCENT OF CHINESE.

FN OUTLET HEADQUARTER FN OUTLET HEADQUARTER, LOCATED IN RAMA 9 ROAD, IS THE BUILDING WITH MANY COLUMNS. THE BUILDING WAS JUST FINISHED AND THERE ARE FLAWS THAT WE CAN WORK ON. FIRST, WITH AS MANY COLUMNS AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SHAPE OF THE PLANNING IS A NARROW RECTANGULAR, BY HAVING A REALLY LONG RECTANGULAR PLAN WITH CIRCULATION CORE IN THE MIDDLE, IT’S HARD NOT TO SEPARATE EACH ZONE FROM EACH OTHER AND WITH THE OWNER’S WISH TO CONNECT EVERYONE IN THIS COMPANY TOGETHER, THAT’S WHAT THE “CONNECTION” CONCEPT CAME FROM. BY DOING SO, WE TAKE OUT WALLS AND DOORS FROM EACH DEPARTMENT AND ADD MORE “COMMON SPACE” INTO IT. IN EACH FLOOR, THERE WOULD BE A SHARED SPACE FOR PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT TO USE. EACH FLOOR WITH EACH DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT, WE THINK, WOULD CREATE MORE CONVERSATION AND MOVEMENT BETWEEN EACH DEPARTMENT AND LATER ON, TO A BETTER WORK PLACE.

THE SILENCE ROOM THE SILENCE ROOM’S MAIN IDEA IS TO CREATE A “STOP” STATION. IN THE MIDDLE OF A CROWDED BUSY PLACE, PEOPLE HAS NO PLACE FOR THEMSELVES, EVERYTHING IS SO BUSY AND NOISY, THAT’S WHERE THE IDEA CAME IN. WHAT IF, IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS CHAOTIC MESS, THERE IS A QUIET PLACE FOR EVERYONE TO ENJOY. THE SILENCE ROOM HAS 4 LEVELS OF QUIETNESS, WITH FUNCTION ON EACH LEVEL COORDINATES WITH THE LEVEL OF SILENCE, GIVES YOU 4 TYPES OF FUNCTIONS USED IN THIS BUILDING. ARTWORKS CAN BE SHOWN HERE ON LEVEL ONE, READING ON LEVEL TWO, SLEEPING ON LEVEL THREE AND FOR THE MOST QUIETNESS SPACE, IS MEDITATION LEVEL. OPPOSITE FROM EVERY BUILDING, TO ENTER THE SILENCE ROOM, IS FROM THE TOP DOWN. BY WALKING UP TO THE TOP, YOU EXPERIENCE EACH LEVEL OF SILENCE BY WALKING DOWN, AND AS EACH LEVEL PASSED, THE WALL WILL BECOME THICKER AND THICKER, GIVING YOU MORE SILENCE AS GOING DEEP DOWN.

VC FABRIC COMPETITION THE IDEA OF THIS COMPETITION IS TO USE VC FABRIC’S PRODUCT TO CREATE AND ECO FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT. THE CONCEPT OF THIS PROJECT IS “INSIDE OUT” MEANING THAT, WE WOULD USE VC FABRIC’S PRODUCTS TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT THAT IS SIMILAR TO NATURE OUTSIDE. BY BRINGING IN BLUISH COLOR TONE, GIVES YOU A CALMER FEELING. BLUE GIVES YOU COMFORT FROM THE INSIDE AND MAKE YOU AT PEACE. WITH THE ORGANIC PATTERN WALL PAPER IN THE BACK, THIS ROOM SEEMS TO HAVE MORE DIMENSIONS. DOORS BETWEEN PANTRY AND LIVING IS REMOVED DUE TO SMALL SPACE, BY REMOVING THE DOOR, IT GIVES YOU MORE CONNECTION IN THE ROOM VISUALLY.
