Elements are linked by their surroundings. The smell in the area has its own aura, and all I want to do is enjoy the moment by exploring, feeling, and smelling it.

White orchids represent reverence, humility, innocence and purity, elegance and beauty.

The small passage with both sides glossy brick cladding walls opens into the great space as I take my first step into the room. It’s like I’m walking through Thailand’s winding streets

Room elements that reflects Thai culture by using forms and materials.

View of the room: The seating and sleeping areas are segregated by the console unit. Through the window in the bedroom space, you can see the surroundings.

The room is cubical, and there is no divider to make the space appear larger. We can enjoy the full majesty of nature through the glass windows with maintaining our privacy.

View from the balcony: The most breathtaking view and space in the room, with no boundaries to the eye. The place simply links you to nature and captures the river’s beauty.I only want to sit here and drink my cup of tea!

The resort’s wooden L-shaped outer facade overlooks the swimming pool on one side and the river on the other. Birds chirping, wind whistling through the leaves Feel the warmth of the festval, grab your cup, and disconnect from the artficial world. IR3014:Contextualising Interior Space Making

Concept: Slow Cooking to Slow Design Slow food: Food that has been prepared with care, using high-quality local and seasonal ingredients.

Slow cooking: Slow cooking is a method used to cook food slowly over a long period of time, typically in a rounded pot on the stovetop. This technique infuses flavours gradually. Cooking a meal by choosing very specific spices.

Slow Design: Creating an environment that is sensitive of nature by enhancing local materials and crafts.

Slow design celebrates quality of artisan architects and designers who don’t rush their design process and the result reflects in their designs. Producing slow means we build less, but build better by employing natural materials and local techniques.

Structural framing for the house was built of ain wood, a local hardwood, and was constructed using traditional interlocking joinery. The extensive louvres were handcrafted from the outer part of the palmyra trunk (a local palm species). Exteriors are detailed with hand-worked copper flashing and standing seam aluminum roofs; interior surfaces are finished with teakwood and India Patent Stone, a refined pigmented plaster. Locally quarried black basalt was used to construct the stone plinths, aqueduct walls and pool plaza.
