The Baan Mueng Goong Ceramic Pavilion reimagines a gallery for ceramic works. Inspired by the village’s ceramic kiln reflecting the history of their craftsmanship, the gallery creates an immersive experience resembling the interior of a large kiln surrounded with ceramic pieces crafted by the villagers of Baan Mueng Goong.

The design includes ceramic bricks, ceiling tiles, and a cladding system to provide protection from the sun and rain, as well as improved airflow features. The pavilion’s gradient colors on the brick walls and ceiling tiles resemble the heat’s effect when firing ceramics. Within the interior is a showcase space using wooden wall-mounted displays designed and constructed to fit perfectly into the original brickwork of the Mueng Goong village. These elements are designed to be rearrangeable, allowing for various display styles. Moreover, they can be adapted for future displays of additional ceramic works. The pavilion not only gathers various craftsmanship from the community but also creates a place for visitors to learn and embrace ceramic works.

King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital

At King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital (KCMH), a small city of personnels works tirelessly to make sick people get better. In addition to doctors, pharmacists, lab scientists, and nurses that are directly involved in the medicinal work, there is a community of hospital staff that enables and enhances the healing process. Often behind the scene, this group of people ranges from accountants, clerks, cooks, janitors, security guards, mechanics, gardeners, ground keepers, etc. Without these essential workers, the operation of this public hospital would grind to a halt. This project aims to help out the community of hospital staff at KCMH, transforming a pair of service spaces. The first is the replacement of the existing greenhouse. The existing shed was overfilled with plants and had potential to be upgraded to a proper plant nursery for efficiency and structural integrity. The second space is the feature courtyard behind the new buildings, fenced off and used for maintenance and storage. This front of house/back of house project offered a great opportunity for INDA students to engage in a public servicing role and execute their design ideas in creative, practical forms.

Habitat/Humanity

As part of their ongoing partnership with the Habitat for Humanity organization, students undertook the construction of a house for an underprivileged family. This project aimed to provide a safe and decent home for those in need. Throughout the construction process, students gained valuable hands-on experience and learned conventional building methods. In addition to the conventional approach, the students also proposed alternative construction details that incorporated the use of recycled materials. This counter-design concept aimed to explore sustainable and environmentally friendly building practices. By incorporating recycled materials into the construction, the students aimed to reduce waste and promote resourcefulness. Overall, this project not only helped address the housing needs of an underprivileged family but also allowed students to develop practical construction skills and explore innovative building techniques. The collaboration with Habitat for Humanity served as a meaningful learning experience, fostering a sense of social responsibility and a commitment to sustainable practices within the student community.
