WHEN
15 Degree Studio was founded by two full-time employees who had experiences working in high positions at both Thai and international organizations. We started talking about the principles which were different from the organizations’ yet we wanted to achieve the same goals. So we both separated from them and founded 15 Degree Studio in late 2016. Fifteen is our auspicious number and a word ‘Degree’ is a term for those who like to drink in social circles that is aligned with our company’s quatrain.
WHERE
15 Degree Studio is a home office in Nonthaburi.
WHY
15 Degree Studio is a small company. It can be extremely beneficial if the clients need a service to directly communicate with a project owner or a designer directly. This is a strength of ours where we will be able to delicately and effectively serve them.
How do you define your own style of work?
We don’t have any obvious style. We focus on service and design consultation with clients accurately and appropriately.

What inspires you and what principles do you apply to each project?
We work as if we are clients’ friends because we think everyone has the ability to design something beautiful. But our good service and consultation requires experience, a good attitude and sincerity.
Which project are you most proud of and why?
We are proud of the RASA Sale gallery because it is attributed to our presentation abilities. The client made the decision to work with us and eventually, we can prove that our proposal and the outcome are harmonized with our consensus. This was also our first work which had the opportunity of being presented to the international press and we hope it is also published domestically as well.
Which part of the process do you enjoy the most during work?
During a competition, when we are assigned a project and when the construction is complete.
If you could invite any ‘creative’ for a coffee, who would it be and why?
Our first boss who we both respect to ask for a consultation and have a talk in terms of mutual business people, not subordination in the role of boss and employee.
