‘The Distant Everyday’ is a visual conversation between architecture, observation, and everyday sceneries. It can be argued that architecture is a product of the convergence of multiple ideas and notions. As keen observers of our surroundings, we constantly seek out the underlying connections that exist across diverse contexts. The collection of photographs presented here is a glimpse into our extensive archives, which have been accumulating since 2016. Unordered and free from any specific arrangement, these images capture random scenes and objects in Bangkok and Tokyo. Individually, they appear unremarkable, but when juxtaposed they transform into a source of inspiration and contemplation. Furthermore, they unveil the inherent ability of architecture to bridge connections between all things.

Bangkok Tokyo Architecture is an architectural studio founded by Wtanya Chanvitan and Takahiro Kume in 2017. We are fascinated by open-ended structures and the assembly of ordinary elements; blurring the lines between ordinary and exceptional.
