Kumpoy is the name of a restaurant established by the owner, who met with the designer to begin the project. “Kumpoy” is also the owner’s nickname.
Growing up near a kitchen stove, she learned to cook from family recipes and developed a passion for cooking, especially spicy dishes, experimenting with
ingredients and new flavors. While traditional northern Thai cuisine may be described as mild and sweet, the food at Kumpoy has a bold, sour, and spicy
twist a unique take on northern flavors.
The interior design reflects the owner’s personality and taste. The designer chose the side facing the public road as the restaurant’s main entrance, adorned
with large glass panels to create an inviting view into the space. The kitchen is located at the back of the restaurant, near an internal road within the Block
28 project, and features large glass windows to showcase the careful cooking process and to facilitate future delivery service. In creating the ambiance,
the designer aimed to infuse the owner’s Chiang Mai heritage and commitment to quality ingredients. Brick walls, reminiscent of Chiang Mai’s historic city
wall, bring a traditional touch, while being rearranged in a modern pattern inspired by “Sinh,” a distinctive local fabric, giving visitors a fresh experience.
To emphasize natural materials, the designer initially wanted to use red local soil plaster for its color and texture on walls and floors. However, due to
durability concerns, a sturdier material, such as red-colored plaster, was chosen. Different plaster textures were applied on walls and floors, with straw
mixed into the wall plaster to create a tactile experience of natural materials.
The kitchen space, although small, was designed to accommodate the many ingredients used in northern Thai dishes. Glass walls enclose the kitchen to
reduce the chef’s isolation while allowing customers to observe the cooking process. Above the kitchen, a display showcases traditional utensils. To keep
the kitchen visually appealing, stickers inspired by the intricate patterns of northern Thai mountains were added to partially cover areas prone to mess
during cooking, enhancing the experience and bringing the flavors and atmosphere of the north into the restaurant.
