The site context was surrounded by trees, and located beside the main office building. The owner required meetings & entertainment eco-workplace which prioritized environmental considerations. I have contributed to designs that mainly focus on passive cooling systems, optimized natural light, and preserved existing trees on site leading to a sustainable workplace.

Kanchanaburi has a hot and humid climate. To reduce thermal heat, the building was oriented to avoid direct sunlight, and a double wall was created on the south facade. Plus an advantage of this site is that there were a lot of trees filtered direct sunlight and I have designed a skylight in order to provide natural light all day.
In this project, I took responsibility for design and project management. Although working as a solo architect designer was difficult for me at first, I have gained a lot of architectural skills, including understanding more design concepts, communication & negotiation with stakeholders, project management, and time management.

With a sustainable concept, the owner requires recreation space for visitors and workers. he believes that a cheerful mindset could produce better output and lead to a liveable organization. An overall route is a looped garden.
In the welcome garden, we have chosen a wall plant shape to create a leading line to the building and also designed colorful ground cover plants as a transition to the main garden. Coffee in the garden space is the main function that allows visitors to sit and communicate with others. there was a sculpture element surrounded by purple bushs that have been an image of this organization. events space were provided for gathering which might occure. In addition, when visitors passed through a tunnel space, there were edible organic gardens that workers could harvest and cook for their meals. finally, for the entrance, I have designed a pavement pattern inspired by a radiowave which represents to image of the organization.
