Holme Ekkamai 22

we explore the concept of “Natural Hybrid” and employ ideas inspired by nature with pragmatic approach through four strategies: Siamese twins, Porous façade, Green hybrid and Haptic material.

In North Ekkamai, a medium-density residential area of Bangkok, the project locates in a young and vibrant mixed-use neighborhood consist of low-rise residentials, restaurants, crafted shops, start-up offices and international schools with lush greenery. Developer aims to propose a new collective housing standard as an alternative to suburban house offering an opportunity to live in the city. To integrate collective housing program with tropical climate and neighborhood environment, we explore the concept of “Natural Hybrid” and employ ideas inspired by nature with pragmatic approach through four strategies: Siamese twins, Porous façade, Green hybrid and Haptic material.
