For the love of design

» When House of Fritz Hansen in Soi Somkid first came to life in 2017, the white house from the 1950s it inhabited was polished into a showroom to display how luxury Danish furniture pieces could fit into a Thai home. Sleek and clean minimalism usually comes to mind at the mention of this Scandinavian name -- but the global rebrand that has been set into motion since last year is injecting quite a popping touch of colours, fun and modernity to its overall aesthetics.
Every human their own touch

» Pottery, ceramics, tableware and wall-decorative items can brighten the mood of a house or a restaurant, as well as present an owner's distinctive personality. Pottery ceramic designers -- Nopkamon Akarapongpaisan and Nol Netprom from craft studio LamunLamai -- have paid attention to each customer. They started from creating name tags for small ceramic items and cups, so customers could have their own unique pieces or could offer special pieces as gifts for others. The craft studio has gained recognition after serving customers with their custom-made designs. Some of their creative wall-decorative items and ingenious tableware designs can be seen at celebrated eateries, including Michelin-starred 80/20, two-Michelin-starred Sorn and at the American coffee chain Starbucks.

Top 25 Singles of 2019 (Part II)
B Magazine, Chanun Poomsawai, Published on 29/12/2019
» As tradition dictates, we rummaged through some 200 singles we'd reviewed over the past 12 months and narrowed it down to 25. Here's what we learned in 2019: Thai fusion is still very much a go-to for most up-and-coming bands including Southern Boys and Suthep Entertainment, who both look to their roots for inspiration. This year also had its fair share of blazingly political moments, thanks to Solange, Lana Del Rey and our own rap troupe Rap Against Dictatorship. One final note, even though this list is split into two parts spreading across this and next week, these tracks are not ranked and their order is completely arbitrary in nature.
