The Thai Residence / Central Israel | Michael Azoulay

The love for Thailand and a desire for eternal vacation were at the heart of a residential design and plan in a village in the central of Israel, spanning an area of 500 square meters. The design presents materials, style and furniture items that complement a unique and liberated living experience. To maintain authenticity and loyalty to the source, a deep research and tours in Thailand were conducted to learn about the Thai building style. The local lodgings and hotels, the surrounding nature, the raw materials inspired the design: bamboo wood, teak beams carved by Thai carpenters, black basalt flooring, natural rocks, and many other structural elements as well as well as the colors, textiles and styling, all feature a unified visual language, in the original Thai spirit.
