Reach Fine Chemical Headquarters, Bangkok, Thailand

The design project for a factory-office complex in Bangkok addresses both the company's corporate culture and the challenges posed by the tropical climate. The building’s image is defined by its use of white aluminum panels, which help mitigate heat gain from the intense sunlight. The facade is designed with an extensive use of louvered panels and natural ventilation louvers, facilitating air circulation to achieve the goal of a low-carbon building that minimizes the need for air conditioning.

The architectural form of the entire complex is inspired by the elegance and grace of a noble white bird, reflecting a sense of lightness, sophistication, and technological innovation. This design not only provides a comfortable and sustainable working environment but also embodies the company’s commitment to environmental responsibility and modern aesthetics. The harmonious integration of these elements creates a factory-office complex that is both functional and symbolic, standing as a landmark in the region for its innovative approach to sustainable design in a tropical setting.

The original design featured three sloped roofs, which were chosen for their optimal structural efficiency based on the column spacing and roof span. However, near the completion of the project, the client hired a feng shui consultant, who suggested that the three pointed roofs resembled tiger claws and were located in a feng shui "tiger transformation" zone, which was believed to be highly unfavorable.

To address this issue while maintaining budget efficiency, we adjusted the roof design to meet the feng shui requirement of a flat roof. In doing so, we incorporated a simple beam belt above the roofline, which was a cost-effective solution. This modification preserved the architectural trajectory of the original design, retaining elements of the previous form. The result was a façade that maintains its visual richness and depth, while staying within budget constraints. The design now blends traditional architectural principles with modern constraints, offering a harmonious and balanced solution to both aesthetic and cultural requirements.
