Akas Villa Khao Yai, a low-rise holiday residence, is an extension of an existing mid-rise condominium project. The project’s name “Akas” meaning “air” and “Khao Yai” (Big Mountain) is elaborated as the main concept for the architectural design, creating a unique identity that represents the essence of the project. The continuous, overlapping lines of the mountain ridge are transformed into the fluid, undulating rooflines of the buildings, rising and falling with their own rhythms, creating irregular shaped light openings. This unique, continuous roof acts as a foreground for the older condo.
