ST. FRANCIS XAVIER CONVENT SCHOOL (SAMSEN) Many schools in Bangkok nowadays have a high-density of students per school area; especially schools that situated in a CBD or a high-density area are less likely to expand. By these conditions, without a carefully masterplan, school expansion could lead to a lack of open space, green area, and a narrow space between buildings. Therefore, the main objective is to improve an environment of the high-dense school in Bangkok concentrating on private schools due to a financial reason. From the collected datas of every school in the CBD and high-density districts, St.Francis Xavier Convent School is the second highdense school in Bangkok with a ratio of 2.69 sq.m. per student.

Structural Grid
Massing & Orientation Due to a tight property and a limited height of the building, the design is needed to be planned efficiently in order to gain the m o s t u s a b l e a re a a n d a beautiful space inside. All of the core circulation including main stairs, elevator, and a fire escape is located on the southwest side of the building while all of the living unit and a shared space area is situated on the north-east side of the building.
The condominium is divided into 7-storey with a 2.65 meters floor-to-ceiling height with a 4 and 3.5 meters grid. The structure of the building is a concrete columns with slab on beam in the living unit structure combining with shear walls in a core structure.
A tetris-like shape gives a double-ceiling space in every unit type. A shared space is located on the top of the building giving the best view of Bangkok skyline from the building whereas a service zone and car park are placed at the 1st floor.
Adding terrace by subtracting unit in an alignment of East and West as an entrance of each unit which creating a better ventilation and giving a green space for every unit.
! On the 7th floor, a public terrace with an open roof plane is a heart of the building between a shared space.
BAAN-NAI-MUENG | LOW-RISED CONDOMINIUM
The building envelope is designed as a folding plane wrapping around the building. The pattern of the fold follows the shape of the units and folds back at the top of the building. The other one is a folded plane covering the core circulation overlapping with the one before.
! A wooden trellis is used as a skin of the main stairs, also a steel trellis is used in the fire escape.

PADENG BOARDER PATROL PRIMARY SCHOOL This school is one of the Insee-Arsa Green School project supported by Siam City Cement Public Co.,Ltd. A purpose of this project is to built a primary school for children who live in a remote area of Phetchaburi, Thailand. Functions include 6 classrooms focusing on an agricultural study, a library, a canteen, and a dormitory of students.
! ! !
Concept Idea Since the school is located in a remote area of Thailand, a boarder between Thailand and Myanmar, Padeng boarder patrol primary school is not just a school for children but also a learning center for everyone in the village. Schools in the remote area are usually supported by many donations during the year including books and other essential things for education. From the observations, books are often abandoned or carelessly kept in a room or a library. Thus, the main idea of the design is to emphasise on the library as a heart of the school that everyone can access easily either for reading or sitting around in the library.
! The other idea of the design is an agricultural studies. The Pakakayor villagers’ livelihood are agriculture and raising domestic animals. The agricultural studies are also one of the main point of the program that the school needs a vegetation field for students to studies practically. Therefore, the vegetation field is divided for each grade to take care of their own crop. The vegetation field is attached to each classroom so that, before class in the morning and after class in the evening, students can look after and observed the vegetable garden.

WEAR - HOUSE As we all know that everyone has the same body temperature. Being exposed to too much difference in temperature can be dangerous. Life in cold climates then requires certain amount of behavioural adaptations. Shelter or architecture is definitely one of the most efficient method. But besides shelter, wearing appropriate clothing also plays a part. Wear-House is our attempt to integrate shelter and clothing together - to offer a variety of architectural experiences throughout the different climatic conditions of Taiki-cho. Feeling the cold in the warmth.

Mass Concept Idea
Life in cold climates then requires certain amount of behavioural adaptations. Shelter or architecture is definitely one of the most efficient method. But besides shelter, wearing appropriate clothing also plays a part. WearHouse is our attempt to integrate shelter and clothing together - to offer a variety of architectural experiences throughout the different climatic conditions of Taiki-cho. Feeling the cold in the warmth
Fabrics is two dimensional, but building architecture requires three dimensional space. Simple act of pinching can produce such effects. Volume will be generated below the fabric surface. Various living activities are then fitted into the form in a triangular manner.
Mass and Orientation Orientation of the mass follows local sun and wind directions. Concrete wall is placed at the northwest area of the house to block the winter wind.
! On the other side, the house have layers of fabric that can be removed in the summer in order to let the summer breeze in. Steep slope of the roof shed snow naturally.
WEAR - HOUSE | HOUSE FOR ENJOYING THE HARSH COLD
Plan From the planning, the core activities spread over the two levels. Four on the lower platform - living area, kitchen, bathroom, and Onsen, and the sleeping area on the upper platform.
Positions of fabric partitions can be changed and spaces will be transformed. Activities can be separated or joined together according to weather conditions.
! !
Wearing Architecture Fabric layers do not serve only as enclosures. They can be felt, touched or used to cover our bodies, making the architectural experience more tactile and personal.
! There are many possible ways to interact with the fabrics. We can be wrapped in architecture the same way we are wrapped in our blankets or clothes. Our bodies could be wrapped, while our faces could be outside, reaching and feeling the cold. We can have ‘the in-between experience’ of warm and cold at once. Feeling cold in the warmth.
!
WEAR - HOUSE | HOUSE FOR ENJOYING THE HARSH COLD
Layers There are three layers in Wear-House, each of which can be removed or reinstalled, creating a series of inbetween space within the house.
! Temperature changes with changing seasons. In winter months, all layers will be installed. In spring and autumn where temperature is not so cold, outermost layer will be removed. In summer, only the outermost layer remains or all could be removed. The house still shelters its users from the rain while opening up to the surroundings, like a pavilion.
! ! ! W ! ear-House Experience The transparent outer tarpaulin layer allows people inside to be visually connected with the surrounding landscape.
! The experience of being warm and cold at the same time could be even more exaggerated here while being in the Onsen. The space of the Onsen is opening up to the sky, allowing the bodies to be physically in touch with the cold outdoor weather, yet relaxed in a nice warm bath.

BAAN - ISARA Phayathai situates a junction of many transportation including train, airport rail link, sky train, and vehicles from Phayathai road. Phayathai railway station is one of many stations that has a community living by the railway. Although the State Railway of Thailand prohibits any use of land in the property by the rail road, many low-income inhabitancies come to settle down for many decades.
! !
Concept Idea As the vibration from the train transmits through the ground surface, in order to avoid or reduce the vibration, the structure needs to be detached from the ground. As a result, suspending structure is used for reducing the vibration. The concept of the design is a hanging train bogies.
! The noise pollution is an airborne which is hard to avoid. Instead of reducing noise from surrounding. Ang-Ka-Loong, a Thai musical instrument, is used as a facade creating a melodic sound and also creating privacy for a living space.
Material In the design, the structure requires a light weight material yet it has to be strong enough to carry load. Rattan is a local material commonly found in Thailand. A special characteristic of rattan is that it is able to be bent and it can be both skeleton and surface. Weaving is a typical method of strengthening a structure. Therefore, a skeleton design is similar to a rattan weaving pattern.

RISING A-LIVE DIVERSE ARCHITECTURE Although diversity already exist everywhere, a relationship between people or a sense of community doesn’t occur everywhere. For example, an apartment and a condominium area places that gather a very huge divorced group of people, however, a sense of community is not usually found in these type of building. Therefore, this Rising A-live aims to bring out the diversity of people in a high-rised building by a character of connecting front yard and diverse functions in the building.

ADVANCED ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 2015 The design content is all about an architectural design experiment by using a digital technological logic in a design process and production; however, the technology in Thailand is not fully innovated enough for the parametric architectural design. Therefore, it is an aim to adapt the local Thai technology and handcraft in an architectural design experiment and to find a mean to combine between local identity and modern technology in the future.

01. IDEAS & TECTONIC STUDIES
Idea & Inspiration The idea and inspiration of this tectonic studies and experiment comes from a origami swan. An origami swan is originally invented by the Japanese; however, it’s also commonly found as a handmade souvenir in Thailand. Only one shape of tiny units can be assemble in many shapes and many ways. From the studies, there are only three ways of unit assembly as shown in the diagram.
