This project has combined the local skill of the Karen’s aboriginals and architect’s professional skills on building to design it.

The facade of the house is the craft of Karen’s people.

Location: Noh Bo, Tak, Thailand Project: Six sleeping units, orphanage Area: 6 x 12,8 m2 These houses are aim to design for the children of Karen refugees. The main driving force behind the Soe Ker Tie House was to provide the children with their own private space, a place that they could call home and a space for interaction and play. Important principles like bracing, material economisation and moisture prevention, may possibly lead to a more sustainable building tradition for the Karen people in the future.
