Though these potentially pioneering lands are a bit out of the epicenter area, have been influenced by Bangkok’s transformation into world-class prime locations and have advanced thanks to this innovative approach to urban living. The venture is likely to become “the New Influential Global City” building up Thailand’s international status and economy. An increasing number of diverse commercial outlets in these areas are getting ready to open their doors to the public, offering new lifestyle solutions to the market. Our vision for these developing areas is to create the center of Bangkok, a vibrant urban hub where every square inch, with almost 0.5 acres to 3 acres, is infused with care and purpose. This planned community will blend green spaces into its design, which should enhance Bangkok’s urban landscape and foster a welcoming environment for all.

The Villa for Younger Brother

“The Villa for Younger Brother,” designed by nәxtoffice, stands as a unique architectural project in a small inner lot in Lavasan, Iran. It embraces the challenge of constructing a striking building in a private urban setting through its innovative curved V-shaped plan. This layout not only places the yard, with views of a riverbed, between the wings of the building but also introduces a special shape that reimagines traditional sloped roofs. The building’s sloped roof, an exaggerated version of the historical architectural style found in northern Iran, creates a variety of interior spaces, including both large and cozy areas. The custom trapezoidal sections of the roof match the curvatures of the interior, eliminating the need for artificial stucco and adding to the overall aesthetic with a mix of Gothic proportions and feminine grace. This results in a visually striking design that fits seamlessly with its surroundings, offering privacy and an enchanting spatial experience.
