Dew House / Ayutt and Associates Design

Dew House is a country home that embraces the elements and heightens the senses of nature. Designed as a modern country house situated in the city of Ubon Ratchathani. The layout follows a standard courtyard house with some extra twists. The house is designed to bring the residents closer to natural elements and, in the process, bring the family closer to each other. The design sentiments hark back to the traditional Thai countryside homes, a sense of place they intimately capture by engaging with the senses of look, feel, smell, and sound. The notion of a standard inward-looking courtyard house denies the architecture and its owner of any relationship with the surrounding context. This house seeks to connect itself not only on a social level with neighbors but also on a fundamental level of connecting with the natural elements.
