TCDC Songkhla

Songkhla has become a vibrant scene for Art blending between the old and the new. It depicts a perfect harmony of cultures and styles filling up the town with diverse languages in Architecture. We are proposing a design which has new character to the town but also based the details on materials and crafts. Our aim is to elevate the value of this abundant material; Para Rubber and utilize it to generate more jobs for the local craftmans.


With the inspiration from the old roots and new branches of Songkhla, we are proposing a design which has new character to the town but also based the details on materials and crafts that are rooted in the society for a long time. A large percentage of the population in Songkhla and the South region depends on Argiculture field in which the majority are growing Para Rubber. Since a huge amount of Para Rubber is available in the market, the price has been compressed which makes it difficult for the farmers to earn enough and elevate their life’s quality. Our aim is to elevate the value of this abundant material; Para Rubber and utilize it to generate more jobs for the local craftmans.
