Erawadee Pattaya (also referred to as Erawadee No. 2) is a residential development in Pattaya designed and engineered by Mario Kleff. The project follows an integrated approach in which architectural design and construction methodology are coordinated. Architectural support and site supervision were carried out in collaboration with Waraporn Na-Lampang.
Structural System and Construction
The building is based on a hybrid structural system combining steel frame construction with reinforced concrete foundations. Primary load-bearing elements include steel girders and cellular beams, enabling efficient span distribution. Upper floor slabs utilize precast hollow-core concrete panels, contributing to reduced structural weight and construction time.
Façade and Material Expression
The façade incorporates two-tone blue glazing, providing a distinct visual identity and contributing to solar shading and daylight control. The external composition is defined by geometric forms and a restrained material palette. Exposed and industrial design elements are incorporated as part of the overall architectural expression.
Spatial Organization
The design emphasizes spatial openness, natural light, and functional planning. Interior layouts are arranged to support daylight penetration and visual continuity. External landscaping is integrated with the built form to establish a consistent residential environment.
Project Context
Erawadee Pattaya reflects the application of engineered structural systems within a residential context, including the use of steel framing, prefabricated elements, and contemporary façade treatments. The project illustrates coordination between architectural design and construction processes, with an emphasis on structural efficiency and material economy.
