FLOATING LANTERNS

Koh Samui, Thailand 2018


The mass of this private villa is broken up into a series of floating water lanterns akin to those seen during the Loi Krathong festival.

Extensive water features combined with the beach front pool create both a cooling and sensual water landscape.The entire ground level opens up to form one large outdoor space, therefore maximising this tight site.

Private spaces float lightly above.Facades made from architectural fabric provide sun protection during the day whilst allowing the lanterns to glow mysteriously by night
