Design Concept
We were struck with the concept of “recording time” when walking along the beach at night in Aranya. As the moonlight danced on the edge of the dazzling ocean and our feet trod on the smooth sand, we saw the intersection of nature and time. As designers, we felt that time spent with loved ones and companions is the most precious and cherished. The framework consists of a membrane structure, cable structure, and steel structure that delicately and subtly interact with the sand.

BULBUL House / Volume Matrix studio

Objective – Initially, due to the deterioration of the original two-story Thai-style house and the advanced age of the house’s foundation, it was hard to fix. Additionally, the family was growing, and they required more private space, including for their son who was starting his own family. Therefore, the owner thought they should just build a new house and move somewhere else. However, after the architect visited the site and had a conversation with the owner, they realized that the owner still had a lot of emotional attachment to the old house. This was due to memories that spanned 60 years of the owner’s life, during which he had lived in the house built by his own father’s hand. Therefore, the architect came up with the idea of “re-composition” – reassembling the architectural pieces of the old house to create a new piece of architecture that would satisfy the family’s need for expanded functionality, and living space while still reflecting the lifestyle, usage patterns, and atmosphere of the old house.
