Assignment

After several weeks of drawing and analyzing, the instructors are confident that the students are prepared to tackle the next assignment.

For this assignment, the students are asked to design a house for a very intriguing couple. She – a radical filmmaker graduated from Goldsmith College, London and he- a provocative Japanese artist who used to be a Sushi chef in Sweden have decided to live together here in Bangkok. Their sanctuary has to fulfill the ever more common integration of live and work, not too dissimilar for that of a common shop-house typology in Bangkok or a more exotic Venetian Palazzo in Italy.

Each student is encouraged to question the very meaning of dwelling, domesticity, and work. More and more people have chosen to work from home thanks to the ubiquity of gadgets and connectivity options. The dichotomy between private and public space of the past is being challenged by the increasingly blurred schedule and existence. Furthermore, many domestic spaces such as kitchen are being transformed into an open stage where anyone could perform. The included case studies should provide sufficient evidence to the claim.
