The first photo is simply a toilet at Matalay Office.Nothing special. But I find it charming.
The wall beside it is made from bamboo trays traditionally used by villagers for raising silkworms.

The timber is simply timber. The structure is straightforward. The way it is built is something ordinary builders already know how to do. ..may look like architecture that seems undesigned.
I try to touch things as little as possible. Not to make materials pretend to be something else. Not to make construction more complicated than necessary. And most importantly, not to design architecture that requires specialists to build it. I want to make architecture from what is already there, with the knowledge that already exists, and through methods that ordinary people can build, repair, extend, or change themselves.

Architecture After the Photograph

Architectural media often prefer to publish photographs of buildings just after they are completed, when everything is still new, clean, and perfect for the camera.

But if you visit Elephant World today, you may find that the architecture no longer looks as new as it does in the photographs you see on the internet.

The bricks have changed with time.
Some of the timber has aged, and some has decayed.The trees have grown and unorganized. And every year, more traces of use appear.

For me, this is not something to regret.

Because what I want people to see here today is not simply whether the architecture I designed years ago still looks as beautiful as it did when it was completed.

What I want them to see is how life here has changed after the architecture was built.

Today, this place has become somewhere for the local community and people from across the province to spend time and rest.

There is now an elephant hospital, with veterinarians who specialize in treating elephants working here.

Children are growing up around these spaces.
Elephants still walk through the architecture.
And people continue to use it as part of their everyday lives.

Even though the timber of the Cultural Courtyard has aged and decayed with time, the pond we dug as a source of water still holds water.

From the beginning, I never thought of the Elephant World Museum as only the three buildings I designed.

For me, the entire place is the museum.

The community is the museum.
The Kui people are the ones who tell their own stories.
The elephant veterinarians are part of the museum.
The children are part of the museum.
The elephants, the pond, the trees, and the everyday life that continues here are all part of it.

The three buildings that we call the “museum” are only a small part of a much larger museum that I imagined from the beginning.

Architecture grows old.
Life continues.

And for me, perhaps what matters more than whether architecture still looks new is whether it remains alive after the architect has walked away.

From one page of my diary 10 years ago…People often ask me,

“You used plywood normally used for furniture framing to make a building. It isn’t waterproof. What happens when it rains? Ayutthaya gets a lot of rain, and it floods all the time.”

My answer,

“When it rains, I give the building an umbrella.”

I don’t have much theory behind the way I design this building. I know plywood doesn’t like water, so I don’t need to pretend that it does.

What I did was make sure that every piece of plywood and every piece of steel could be taken apart.

If you look closely, you can see bolts on almost every panel. This building was not designed with the idea that everything had to remain here forever.

When the flood comes, we remove the plywood.
If one day the building has to come down, we take it apart.
If it has to move somewhere else, we take the pieces with us and assemble them again.

I am not trying to make plywood become something that can withstand everything.

I simply design the building to understand how to live with the limitations of the material.

Perhaps, for me, design is as simple as this:

Knowing what the things we have cannot do, and finding a way to live with that.

Some people call me “the man of elephants.” I simply smile when I hear that. What they are really seeing is not an obsession with elephants, but a commitment “ a commitment ”to this village, to this community, and to staying with them over time.

These photographs were taken while the Elephant World Museum was still under construction.

Because it is a government project, funding comes in phases. Each building must be completed before the budget for the next one can be approved. That meant this was never a project that could be finished quickly.

I have lived with this project since 2015. Today, in 2026, I am still here.

Commitment is not something we announce. It is something we live.

These photographs have never been published anywhere.

They are pages from my personal diary.

Since 2017, I have documented the construction of The Wine Ayutthaya almost every day. Not for publication, but to remember the process.

We challenged ourselves to build an architecture wrapped in plywood, a material usually hidden inside furniture. Five spiral staircases became the building’s primary structure, while every plywood component was designed to be disassembled and reassembled.

Years later, I find that these photographs are not just about a building. They remind me that architecture is never made in a single moment. It is built through thousands of small decisions, recorded one day at a time.

These photographs were taken before the house was finished. But , when the house was finally completed, it did not look very different from these photographs.
If there was any experiment, it was never about testing architectural ideas. It was about learning how to live with limitations, accepting imperfection, and making decisions with whatever resources were available at that moment.

This house was never an architectural laboratory.

It became my diary..
It is about responding to reality—to people, time, budget, construction, and life itself.

Our house has been featured in the latest issue of a+u.

Answering their questions brought me back to a “diary” I had almost forgotten.

I have always called this house my personal diary.

People often describe architects’ own houses as experiments. But I never thought of this house that way. I never had the luxury of money to build something simply for experimentation.

Instead, I had one responsibility: to make a home where everyone could live together.

Seven people sleep here every night. On an ordinary working day, three more people arrive. That means this house is lived in by ten people, spending at least twelve hours together every day.

Every wall, every opening, every decision came from daily life rather than theory.

For seven years, I documented every stage of its construction—not for publication, but for myself. These photographs have never been shown anywhere before. They have lived only inside my own diary.

Today, because of a+u, I would like to share a few pages of that diary with you.

Some people begin with a commission.
We begin with curiosity.

The backyard is simply where that curiosity takes physical form.
Our laboratory has never been a sophisticated facility.

Long before a client arrives or a project is commissioned, we are already making.

We don’t wait for perfect conditions, expensive machines, or a reason to begin. We start with curiosity.

Every material is touched by hand. Every joint is assembled by hand. Every mistake becomes part of the learning process.

For me, architecture is not something you only draw, discuss, or imagine.

It has to be built.

This 1:1 mock-up of Elephant Theatre was where we first experimented with elephant dung bricks before the pavilion travelled to the Versailles, France.

Every experiment was documented. Every lesson stayed with us.

That is why backyard has become a laboratory. We experiment continuously- not for a specific commission, but to understand materials, construction, and the possibilities that architecture has not yet discovered.

Architecture does not grow from endless thinking.

It grows from making.

Wall

No architecture can answer every question at once. Every project is a process of deciding which question matters most within its own context.

For The Artisans, one of those questions was: What should a wall do?

We have long understood a wall as something that separates.

It divides spaces, separates people, and defines the boundary between inside and outside.

But for me, a wall does not have to do only that.

A wall does not have to separate. It can also connect. At The Artisans, the wall is not a barrier, but a filter.

It filters light, allowing the atmosphere of the space to change throughout the day.

It filters views, creating privacy without disconnecting people from their surroundings.

And it allows light, breeze, shadow, and nature to become part of the architecture.

When a wall stops being only an element of separation,it begins to create relationships

between inside and outside,

between people and nature,

and between architecture and time.

“When they swing open, the wall disappears.” The Artisans Ayutthaya The woman restaurant

For me, architecture is about designing relationships.The relationship between one building and another.

Between inside and outside.
Between people and nature.
Between movement, vision, and everyday life.

Doors, windows, bridges, and walkways are not separate architectural elements.They are all tools for creating these relationships.To me, a door is not simply something that closes a space.

A window is not merely something to look through.
And a bridge is not only a way to cross from one side to another.
They all serve the same purpose: to connect.

That is why I designed large operable panels as walls that can open.When they swing open, the wall disappears.

The boundary between inside and outside begins to dissolve.

Wind, light, sound, and trees become part of the architecture.
