Conceived as an extension of BelAire Bangkok’s hospitality experience, Liquid transforms the threshold between hotel and street into a calm, welcoming destination. Rather than functioning as a conventional coffee shop, the design establishes a spatial transition where guests, visitors, and the surrounding neighborhood converge through a sequence of open, light-filled spaces. The project embraces the concept of “Liquid Lounge Reimagined”—a timeless and intimate environment that redefines coffee culture within the vibrant context of Nana.

The spatial organization is driven by circulation, creating a seamless connection between the hotel lobby and the public realm while maintaining distinct zones for arrival, gathering, and service. A centrally positioned monolithic café counter acts as the heart of the space, anchoring the experience and naturally guiding movement through carefully layered seating environments that transition from indoor comfort to an outdoor terrace. The layout dissolves traditional boundaries, allowing the café to function as both a destination and a connective social space within the hotel.

Layout Plan

Isometric

Materiality is intentionally restrained, drawing upon a palette of limestone, warm timber, textured fabrics, and clear glazing to evoke quiet sophistication. Existing structural columns are embraced as defining architectural elements, while bespoke furniture, integrated planters, and subtle level changes establish intimate pockets without compromising openness. Full-height glazing blurs the distinction between interior and exterior, allowing natural light, surrounding greenery, and reflections to animate the space throughout the day.

Every element has been designed to support an atmosphere of effortless hospitality. Soft, ambient lighting complements daylight, while natural materials age gracefully over time, reinforcing a sense of permanence and authenticity. The result is a contemporary café that feels refined yet approachable—a space where architecture, landscape, and everyday rituals of coffee come together to create an enduring destination within the heart of Bangkok.

OLIVE HOUSE

Bang Khun Thian, Bangkok, Thailand

2023 — 2024

Conceived as an intimately attuned sanctuary for a family of four—and their diminutive, long-standing four-legged companion—Olive House is a meditation on the quiet luxury of everyday life. More than a residence, it is a spatial composition of light, texture, and restraint—where architecture and interior design work in concert to support the rituals of domesticity, the nuances of personality, and the comforting rhythms of family routine.

J STUDIO

Lat Phrao, Bangkok, Thailand

2022

J Studio is designed as an intimate yet inspiring production environment tailored to the creation of both audio and visual content. With a deliberate nod to the midcentury design ethos, the studio evokes a sense of nostalgia while offering a space that fosters creativity. By incorporating the warm, organic tones of plywood, the design creates a welcoming atmosphere conducive to artistic exploration. The ambition of the project is to provide emerging artists and creators with a distinct, comfortable space where creativity and craftsmanship come together harmoniously.
