Supanniga Eating Room, 2017

The idea

Inspired by the restaurant’s location on Chao Phraya riverbank with exceptional view of the ‘Phra Prang’ of Wat Arun (the Temple of the Dawn), atmosphere of traditional riverfront house becomes design narrative for the project in keeping with contemporary Thai character of the brand Supanniga. Ground floor is lined with timber wall and windows in language and pattern derived from traditional ‘Isan’(north-eastern) house. ‘Mudmee silk’ (unique north-eastern Thai silk), ‘Supanniga blossom’ (yellow cotton tree’s flower), ‘Kraboum’ (cooked sticky-rice cooling tray made of wood), ‘Feum’ (wooden reed of traditional mat weaving machine), and handmade decorative terracotta leaves and beads by Supanniga Home Khon Kaen craftsman team are main design elements featuring colour yellow and orange of Supanniga blossom, aqua blue of the river theme, and pink of Bangkok sunset sky creating fresh and bright atmosphere in harmony with the view of ‘Phra Prang’ and Chao Phraya river which are the main highlight of the restaurant.
