Architectkidd in collaboration with Peter Hedrich has completed the design of this house in Bang Saray.\u00a0Located near the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, this house is formed by the tropical conditions of South East Asia as well as the values of its owners, a Swiss family living in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The house follows a simple arrangement of spaces, with five bedrooms laid out lengthwise on the upper floor. The lower floor consists of the kitchen, dining and a large living area facing the outdoor pool and garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The house is constructed using post-tensioned concrete slabs, which are more commonly found in larger-scale commercial buildings in Thailand. The use of post-tensioning for this house provides uninterrupted spaces on the lower level, where large glass windows can be opened to connect the interior spaces with the outdoor areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This house continues Architectkidd<\/a>‘s interest in using raw and minimally processed building materials. The thin horizontal slabs contrast with the cast concrete shear walls and steel columns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All the wooden elements were designed using reclaimed hard wood timber<\/a> including vertical screens which provide shading and natural airflow around the periphery of the upper floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The interior design of the house is simple in terms of decoration and feature functional furnishings and spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Artist and Illustrator Fawalai Sirisomphol<\/a> was commissioned for the painting in the living area of the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The design for the Bang Saray House has been featured in Contemporist<\/a>, Archdaily<\/a>, Room Magazine<\/a>, and other publications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
