WHO
The target audience of our creation is artists and others who are interested in the arts; including, architects and interior designers. In order to transfer creative methods and ideas in new ways for the next generations, coming up with an independent style for creating new things.
WHAT
My design focuses on the transformation of structures and elements related to architecture and interior design to create a new methodology of Designs, Compositions, and Materials usage. Integration of design elements creating stunning spaces beyond imagination; motivating, and inspiring the viewer to think and design something new.
WHEN
My artworks are published to the public at no cost via social networks, so those artworks are art for everyone to visit for free whenever they want. To provide new creative resources and ideas for designers, artists, and people who are interested in the field of art and design.
WHERE
My artworks can be accessed via social networks on both Instagram and Twitter. As a new generation, I use this space to featured and promoted my creation, which is a space that everyone can access and participate in my artworks.
WHY
My artworks can be considered as a combination of art in a new form with elements of interior architecture through the 3D program. To create the spaces referenced to an interior architecture theory beyond the stereotype, that distinguished my artworks to be outstanding and interesting.
HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE CREATIVITY?
Creativity in my definition is imagination, flexibility, and opened mind to learn new things, and always try to explore the possibility of things for unusual aspects with an interesting criterion.
DESCRIBE YOUR PRACTICE IN THREE WORDS.
Conceptual, Flexible, Punctual
WHERE DO YOU GO, OR WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU GET STUCK ON A PROJECT
When I got stuck on a project, I try to find alternative subjects to do that are relaxing, such as listening to music, playing games, watching movies, or going out to a peaceful place. Many times, I have come across an excellent idea when I was totally distracted from the work in front.
WHAT PROJECT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?
Actually, this set of artworks is considered my masterpiece, because it is a very early creation when I started experimenting with new things about Composition, Color Theme, Layout, integrated with my background as an interior designer to innovate an interesting work.
IF YOU COULD INVITE ANY CREATIVE OUT FOR COFFEE, WHO WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY?
As an interior designer, I would like to invite Tadao Ando because I really love his designs and thinking methods. Also, his creation can illustrate his identity, which combined architecture and art through the function and space of Interior and architecture perfectly. So if I got the opportunity to invite him out for a coffee, I will ask about his design concept of various places that he designed and his perspectives of design as well. It would be a good experience that can be adapted to improve myself in the future.

Those who have been to ACT Forum’20 on 18-22 November at Impact Challenger Muang Thong Thani might run into the eye-catching FORMICA’s stand near the ACT’s booth which features unique geometric shape and a number of surface textures in the design.
