“Kaew Boutique” has a sub-brand of “Kaew” was established in 1990 which is a souvenir shop located in Kanchanaburi, Thailand well-known as a must-buy snack when visiting Kanchanaburi.
In 2022 after the COVID-19 situation the economy began to stagnate. Kaew has an idea to rebrand with the name “Kaew Boutique” which is a concept store that sells creative Thai Dessert. The owner has an idea to create the landmark and welcome space for travelers to use the service and purchase products, souvenirs, food, cafe, and also has co-working spaces including a pet friendly zone.
The design concept of Kaew Boutique is based on the surrounding natural environment, which is characterized by rows of typical boxy residences backdropped by scenic mountain ranges which stretch into the distance. The building has a divided courtyard space, similar to the structure of an egg yolk, to create a common area for shared activities where people can interact. The designer has also considered the sun, wind, and rain direction and designed the shape of the roof same as a mountain to open up the view of the mountain. The designer chose to use materials that blend with the surrounding natural environment, built a raised mound, and also used various types of plants to make the building look more approachable and friendly.
In conclusion, the goal was to create a space where people could relax while using the services. The design was also intended to be able to coexist with the weather conditions of Thailand which included reducing the shape of the building to a circular form. The overall approach was to keep the design humble but symbolically sustainable.
Kaew Boutique is designed to accommodate tourists, families, and pets. The designer especially designed the placement of the slat facade for airflow well making the user feel comfortable and relaxed with the environment we designed. Furthermore, provides a positive experience for users and visitors, as well as for nearby locations.
