Pomelo Cafe
The Pomelo Amphawa
This Café is a part of The Pomelo Amphawa master plan which is composed of 5 buildings that are integrated into the crops and greenery in the site. Situated in the lychee garden, the café is oriented toward Mekong River on the North which is also an ideal direction for avoiding a strong daylight in tropical countries.
The design explores the relationship of geometry. We introduce a rectangular interior space that is embraced by a circular amphitheater. Without front or back, the building is free to be approached from all directions while taking advantages of the surrounding landscape. Inspired by the traditional Thai house, the space under the amphitheater resembles “Tāithun” (a semi-outdoor space under a Thai House) where public activities can be engaged during daytime while being protected from the sunlight. Skylights are punctured through the amphitheater, embracing the existing trees, and allows natural light to penetrate into Tāithun. In the evening and night, the upper part of the amphitheater can be fully used for public events that face toward the river scenery. This design language allows the architecture to be active day-and-night.
The result of an architecture design creates an all-day accessible public space and an iconic landmark that sits harmoniously with its surrounding landscape.
