We are extremely excited to start the designs for a Mezcal bar in Bangkok. Mezcal is an alcoholic beverage made from the Agave plant. The word ‘Mezcal’ originates from the Aztec and translates to ‘roasted Agave’.
INNER CITY DENSIFICATION
We have begun concept studies for a 1 ha site in central Bangkok, which will contain private houses as well as workspace
LOW CARBON HOLIDAY HOME
We're currently working on a number of private holiday residences in Thailand and are exploring construction methods involving less embodied carbon. Our design aids in minimising energy use, through shading and optimised cross ventilation, keeping the building cooler throughout the day.
JOIN NOW
We're looking for Architectural designers and Architectural Interns to join our new studio in the heart of Bangkok. Please send PDFs of your CV and work samples to goodmorning@studioort.com
Timber Architecture
The practice's attempt to drive down carbon emission in each of our projects is leading to a focus on timber structures.
The environmental benefits of timber are very evident, as long as the trees come from sustainably managed forests. This is not always the case, particularly in South East Asia, where an increasing number of our projects are located. Relying on certification schemes, such as FSC or PEFC is key for our designs in timber in making sure that our projects make a positive impact to our environment.
World Green Building Council
In the build-up to COP 26 later this week, we’re looking at the World Green Building Council as a catalyst for the uptake of sustainable buildings for everyone, everywhere.
The WorldGBC is a global action network comprised of around 70 Green Building Councils worldwide. Each fo them are independent, non-profit organisations which convene businesses and governments to collectively drive environmental, economic and social impact within the built environment on a national, regional and global scale.
UN Sustainable Development goals & the Built Environment
Architects and Urban Designers have the opportunity to contribute directly towards some of 17 sustainable development goals, adopted by the United Nations Member States in 2015.
Each project, small or big has an impact on people and the planet and offers the chance to improve our present and future.
