Text description provided by the architects. A hundred square Wah site within a golf course village, at North-Eastern of Bangkok, Nawathani Village, is full of large ancient trees inside. In order to preserve the trees, the building shape was designed by following the existing trees, together with a perfectly fitted function.

There is a relativity between existing trees and an architecture which are, an eight meters gap between the two of large tree at the front layer of wall, determined a car entrance which is located at the left part of the house, while a cluster of another type of tree which stands at the front right of the site act as a small front yard. Moreover, the largest one which is the Malabar tree, standing at the center of the site, is used for a private relaxation area inside.

At the main entrance, the house cannot be seen and realized an inside space, but it attracts people to look at the trees with a reflective black wall as a background, which is more remarkable when green is on the black canvas and doubling trees as reflection on gloss material. In contrast, behind a solid wall, there is plenty of glass window which can easily touch an outdoor garden, especially an elevated common playroom which is closest to the Malabar Tree. A large wooden deck terrace act as a co space between all rooms. Glass roof of master bedroom also allows inside space to connect with the existing Malabar Tree.
