Phaithaya Banchakitikun's Dusitanon, a four-story residence in central Bangkok, has been honored with the Silver A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award 2025 for its distinctive façade and innovative approach to urban privacy, seamlessly blending security, aesthetics, and city connectivity.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Dusitanon, designed by Phaithaya Banchakitikun, stands as a striking new addition to Bangkok's urban landscape, recognized with the prestigious Silver A' Design Award in 2025. Conceived as a response to the challenges of city living, the residence masterfully balances the need for privacy and security with a desire for openness and architectural distinction. Located in the heart of a bustling neighborhood, Dusitanon's design addresses the complexities of urban life by offering residents a sanctuary that remains visually and functionally connected to its vibrant surroundings.
The building's signature feature is its vertically aligned, subtly twisted façade panels, constructed from high-strength aluminum with elliptical profiles. These angled louvers serve as a visual screen, protecting the interior from prying eyes and reducing heat exposure, while still allowing residents to enjoy panoramic city views. The façade's innovative design also minimizes dust and water retention, ensuring durability and low maintenance. Between the façade and the main structure, thoughtfully integrated landscaped areas introduce greenery, enhancing both the building's environmental performance and its aesthetic appeal.
Inside, Dusitanon is organized to support both communal interaction and private retreat. Each floor's front section offers semi-private living spaces that encourage openness and connection, while the rear sections house tranquil bedrooms for undisturbed rest. The fourth floor features a dramatic double-height living area, framing expansive views of the city and reinforcing the residence's sense of openness. Dusitanon's harmonious blend of privacy, functionality, and urban engagement exemplifies the innovation and artistry celebrated by the Silver A' Design Award, setting a new standard for residential architecture in dynamic city environments.
