Designer Talk : Shade Light and Nordic Style - Story from Nok (Suthin Pookchop) from Khanad Department
Q : Please tell us the Design Concept of Lasunya Kafe.A : Personally, I start to interest in using white color and pale wood color including grey color tone. So Nordic Style is the original concept that inspire me to design. Then this project came in and I start to propose to use "Nordic" concept to design this cafe. Mainly I use white color for building and combination of wood and grey color.
I design the lighting to come inside and that make the space more interesting. My experiment is to recolor the teak wood coloring to match the design mood and tone. I use some special tree to create mood in the cafe and when finished it's almost 100% of what I expected.
Q : How to select the decorative material?
A : According to what I like for the white color, wood and light grey (sometimes dark grey), I had use for this cafe design. And almost every element that I use for original concept had been use exactly what I design. For example, most of the white color I select from the ceiling pantone and adapt to all elements and the texture had to be matt because I don't need the reflect on wall when the light effect. And I also use grey color in some important part such as spiral staircase which design to use steel structure and that makes this space more attractive.
I love wood, and selecting teak wood to use for furniture. The difficult part for this project is normally teak wood coloring that typical in Thailand is a bit orange and red, but I need it to be pale wood color. So I decide to consult Asia Teak Wood (ATW) and we work together to make Thai teak wood look more pale and more texture. Finally, ATW develop and make my furniture "As I wish" (more rooms to improvement).
Q : What is the design concept of this table?
A : I need this table to look strong and relax in the same time, also need to use teak wood joint and add design value. So I work with ATW to reinvent the pattern of wood joint to make this table have more details. Mostly I design furniture by adapting the existing design brand and adjust the sizing and hight to match with asian ergonomics. Also add extra funtions (plugs) to be user friendly and for overview I have to say ATW work are very impressive.
For small dining table, I bored with the same design of typical style so I adapt the look of table to feel comfortable by using pale color teak wood top and use light grey leg with sanding texture to make its look more Nordic style. And thanks to ATW that customize by my design and make it beautifully.
Q: Asia Teak Wood can make it out, do you like it?
A: You probably don't have to answer whether you like it or not. What I want to tell ATW is to keep improving, never stop doing it.
Q: Lastly, would you like to recommend someone who wants to decorate a house or shop in this style?
A: Once again, Nordic Style is just part of a claim either like home decoration or for people who like home, most people will choose this spice to look indoors in the office, not necessarily looking at white. However, I don't think such a style would work in a home that we are used to. and especially people who like teak Thailand has teak from planted forests, so we don't have to cut down and destroy the environment again. Don't forget the wood Traditional color tone, try to adjust according to Lasunya Kafe shop and will have to consult ATW.
Finally, I would like to thank P' Nok from Khanad Department for giving Asia Teak Wood the opportunity to be a part of P' Nok's Masterpiece work with Lasunya Kafé.
