K House’s living area opens onto a garden-lined walkway
XPER Studio composes K House in Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, reflecting a design ethos rooted in tranquility, privacy, and functionality. Tailored to the lifestyle of the owner, a doctor with a penchant for relaxation, the residence features a thoughtful layout. The living area opens onto a surrounding garden-lined walkway, fostering a serene atmosphere. As Nakhon Phanom experiences urban expansion and increased tourism, the designers prioritize creating a peaceful and private environment. The property’s strategic placement, flanked by roads, prompts the use of thick walls to mitigate noise and enhance security. These walls also serve as effective heat insulators.

Large openings, including folding doors, facilitate natural light and air circulation, contributing to the overall comfort of the space. Considering the region’s diverse climate, characterized by cold winters and hot, humid summers, the architects implement design elements such as high walls to combat heat accumulation and synthetic wood for weather resistance. The house stands as a result of a meticulous process that harmonizes location-specific considerations and resident requirements, resulting in a multi-dimensional space that blends aesthetics with functionality to cater to both residents and visitors.
