Located on Soi Intamara 29, Sutthisarnwinitchai Road in Bangkok, this is the Laochariyakul family home, which stood unoccupied and uninhabitable for about ten years due to construction
errors by a contractor who ultimately abandoned the project. The house was originally intended by the parents as a place for their children to live together. Over time, however, the son required
a home to start his own family, making it necessary to adapt the house to contemporary lifestyles and needs.
The design respects the original context while preserving the parents’ vision of a welcoming family home. Classic materials and architectural details reflect the parents’ tastes, as traditional
Thai houses are also present on the property. The father’s love of wood contrasts with the son’s preference for modern architecture, leading to a blend of styles within the new design.
To harmonize these elements, the renovation retains the building’s core shape, column rhythm, and original grooves. Certain classical details were simplified, the front and upper eaves were
removed, and modern materials such as glass and stone were introduced to create a more contemporary character. Inside, the layout was reimagined for greater usability.
Where once separated rooms and corridors restricted movement, an open-plan concept now links the living areas, creating a comfortable flow suited to modern family life.
