From the problems obtained So the architects wanted to design the space and atmosphere in the most compact manner due to the limited space. There is also an original tree in front of the house called "Ton Chok" which is a tree of good fortune that people in the north respect each other.

Therefore, natural materials like wood are the first choice. In using to decorate the building And the architects focused on selecting the wood that was removed from the old houses of the local people nearby.

Another material that is used in conjunction with wood is to focus on modern materials with simple construction. Iron is another option. Architects wanted the color tone of the building to be controlled to have a white color contrasting with the real wood surface.
