» In Architect-Jer (Architect View), Chatchavan Suwansawat shares stories about his architectural-based perspective and the things people see in everyday life such as a Chinese ancestral altar, a metal sliding door, and pots of plants. The book is a compilation of his writings for the online magazine The Cloud. Chatchavan came up with the idea of writing the column after he graduated from the Faculty of Architecture at Silpakorn University and participated in a writing camp arranged by Sarakadee Magazine.
