SITE
The project is a private residence for a young family located in inner Bangkok, within a highly dense urban fabric. The surrounding context consists of commercial buildings and former industrial structures. An elevated expressway runs along the front edge of the site, while the access road generates constant noise and visual disturbance. The house is therefore conceived as a protected domestic environment, offering privacy and acoustic comfort while introducing meaningful green spaces within the property.
GREEN AREA
The building layout is developed in response to the climatic conditions of Southeast Asia. The house is oriented along the east–west axis and positioned toward the southern edge of the site, allowing the northern side to remain largely open as a garden. This configuration enables interior spaces to open toward the green area and receive ample natural daylight while minimizing direct heat gain.
PROGRAM
Spatial organization prioritizes privacy and environmental buffering. Parking and service areas are placed at the front of the site to shield the house from noise and urban activity. Shared family spaces—such as the living and dining areas—are located at the core of the house, creating a calm and cohesive interior environment. Five bedrooms are distributed across three levels, located at both the front and rear of the building to support varied family lifestyles.
FAÇADE
To reinforce privacy, the façade incorporates shading screens and architectural elements strategically placed to block unwanted views from adjacent buildings and the elevated expressway. These shading devices also function as passive climate-control elements, reducing heat gain and filtering natural light to create a comfortable indoor environment.
MATERIALS
Natural materials such as wood and stone are predominantly used to create a warm and tactile architectural expression, while establishing a strong connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding greenery.
