Due to the tropical climate and hot climate, they will pay great attention to the important role of greening in environmental construction, in order to keep the environment cool with the help of natural green plants.
This building is located in the countryside of northern Thailand, far away from those popular classic tourist attractions, it looks extraordinarily peaceful and far away. Its main building materials are containers and bamboo. The bottom is supported by a steel framework to form an overhead layer, and the ground is laid with hollow bricks.
You can imagine that this is a building on a tree, which can be described as "it's cool under the big tree". The high altitude and the shade of the green trees, think about it, even if it is a hot summer day, living here can be extra comfortable Moreover, it is still in a tree-lined forest. In order to fully enjoy this beautiful view, even the dining table is placed here.
The two containers serve as two rooms of the building. Except for one end with a round window cut into the box body, the other box walls are all replaced with floor-to-ceiling glass windows. It is very suitable for meditation in this closed but bright space. Or work. The furnishings in the room are still relatively simple, with the addition of beds.
The same is true in the other room, only with wooden floors and even floor-to-ceiling windows. The fully ventilated environment is too close to nature! You can stroll freely inside and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the countryside. If you are tired, you can sit on the recliner on the side where the box door is opened. At the end of this room, there are also hand-washing stations and mirrors for washing.
The kitchen and bathroom are set on the first floor, and bamboo and concrete are used as fences to enclose the activity area. Going up from the steel stairs, you can reach the second floor transformed from the container. The two containers are arranged in the shape of an "eight", and the terrace connected in the middle is laid with dry bamboo, which has a beautiful viewing terrace.
