One of the paramount goals of the North Forest Studio and<br />
its owner is to bring forestland back to the town. The name<br />
Patamma (the handmade woodland) epitomizes the genesis<br />
of the forest, sprouting forth from an abundance of youthful<br />
saplings that have been meticulously sown.<br />
In the Mueng Jang subdistrict of Phu Pieng district<br />
in Nan province, Thailand, lies an expansive rubber<br />
tree forest where the Nan River meanders through,<br />
offering visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves<br />
in the wonders of nature and the history<br />
of the land. Named “Patamma,” the project has<br />
Thanapolpoj Rochnattakul and Korkiat Kittisoponpong<br />
of Integrated Field (IF) helming the design<br />
direction, translating its story through a collaborative<br />
endeavor between experts from various professional<br />
fields. The design of the masterplan and landscape<br />
architecture for the expansive 197-acre site meticulously<br />
prepares it for forthcoming short-term and<br />
long-term developments. The tasks were carried<br />
out under the direction of North Forest Studio and<br />
the project owner. Integrated Field (IF), meanwhile,<br />
was assigned the role of crafting the architectural<br />
design, landscape architecture, interior decoration,<br />
brand identity, and environmental graphics for the<br />
project’s resort and restaurant, Pa Kam Kin.<br />
A substantial element of the project lies in the<br />
exquisitely verdant rubber tree forest greeting visitors<br />
at the entrance, while another parcel of land<br />
has been rearranged, following the owner’s vision<br />
to transform it into a forested area with agricultural<br />
plots. The trees that have been planted are not<br />
merely intended to achieve a large quantity and<br />
“create” a manmade forest, but rather represent<br />
a careful curation of indigenous flora, with each<br />
species cultivated in a designated area that suits<br />
its unique characteristics. One of the paramount<br />
goals of the North Forest Studio and its owner is<br />
to bring forestland back to the town. The name<br />
Patamma (the handmade woodland) epitomizes<br />
the genesis of the forest, sprouting forth from an<br />
abundance of youthful saplings that have been<br />
meticulously sown.<br />
