Founded in 2018, Atelier LI is an architectural practice led by principals Bastien Bai Li and Elise Xuan Li. Educated in Paris and now based in Thailand, our atelier specializes in the synthesis of contemporary architectural language and the natural environment.
Our practice is defined by a dialogue of contrast, navigating the tension between the rigor of European modernism and the organic fluidity of the natural landscape. Drawing from a decade of professional practice across diverse contexts, we bring proven technical precision to the integration of structure and site. We treat the natural environment as a primary building element, dissolving the boundaries between interior and exterior to cultivate spatial continuity and harmony.
By balancing structural clarity with an evolving tropical sensibility, we design spaces that are both intellectually refined and deeply connected to their site. Our goal is to create architectural sanctuaries that enhance the beauty of nature through clean lines and a disciplined modern aesthetic. Atelier LI’s creations have been featured in global design publications and recognized with international accolades.
