Kid Cabin / Imaginary Objects

Miwa Negoro — Wed, 02 Apr 2025 06:00:00 +0000

Nestled in a vast field in Chonburi, Thailand, Kid Cabin is a retreat designed for a client's children, positioned beside their parents' RV. Inspired by the spirit of a treehouse—grounded rather than elevated—the cabin embraces simplicity, nature, and play. The lightweight teak structure, influenced by traditional Thai houses, consists of two compact bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and an open-air deck that serves as a communal living space, blurring the boundary between indoors and outdoors.

Enfold Pavilion / Imaginary Objects

Enfold is a pavilion for ambient music at Wonderfruit, the largest music and lifestyle festival in Thailand. Designed as a calming refuge away from the festival's bustle, the pavilion offers a space for contemplation, relaxation, and reconnection with sounds and the environment. From the outset, a courtyard was chosen as the typology—a walled space that isolates from the surroundings and focuses attention on the performance within. This square courtyard is accessible through small openings on each side. A covered walkway with speakers mounted in a surrounding layout runs along the perimeter. At the same time, the central listening area opens to the sky, allowing audiences to sit and experience a focused listening environment and gaze upward to the vast expanse above.

This renovation exercise aimed to transform existing facilities at Bangkok University across two buildings. The scope of work included a student canteen, several labs, classrooms, and corridors. The two major spaces were the Canteen and Classrooms. In response to the increased mobility of students and the means of instruction, our design approach in both of these areas was to introduce more spatial permeability and versatility of use.
