Baan Sai Ma was our first foothold in a new territory. We carved out a space in an old, overgrown durian orchard and planted the seeds that would grow into a home for our practice and our family. At the time we thought our future to be uncertain and planned for a building that could accommodate that uncertainty, hyper-flexible in detail and planning, a machine for living. It was an experiment in adaptability, live-work relationships, tropical climates, sustainable longevity, graceful interactions and the natural beauty of place.
