Modern black architectural house with vertical grid facade system and well-maintained green garden on the roof under a clear blue sky

Created with the perfect blend of modern design and traditional Feng Shui principles, the K.KRIT House by WARchitect presents an impressive private residence located on Charoen Krung Road in Bangkok, Thailand. This 490 sqm home, designed for the renowned news anchor Krit, achieves a rare harmonious balance between functionality, privacy, style and cultural sensitivity.

A Home Reflecting Personality and Philosophy

The homeowner envisioned a modern, masculine sanctuary—a space that balances solitude, security and social life, while strictly adhering to Feng Shui rules. WARchitect took this concept and developed the house layout, where every detail—from bed orientation to room placement—respects ancient spatial traditions.

Instead of placing a bedroom above the garage (which contradicts Feng Shui principles), architects transformed the garage roof into an outdoor party terrace, accessible via an external staircase. This solution preserves the integrity of the floor plan and makes the space functionally engaging—guests can enjoy rooftop events without entering private areas of the house.

In a bold move, the terrace also directly interacts with the pool below, creating opportunities for surprises and fun. Guests can even jump from the terrace into the pool—turning Feng Shui restrictions into architectural possibilities.

Design That Complements Nature and Family

The heart of the house features a multi-functional living room, acting as a connecting element between family zones. Sliding walls open up to a peaceful courtyard with a large tree, pool and direct view of the parents' house, enhancing family closeness.

Vertical spatial connections further integrate architecture. The brother's room is linked through an open opening to a hidden garden terrace, concealed behind the grid facade screen. Morning sunlight filters through steel slats, creating dynamic patterns on interior walls and reflecting off the pool surface—a living light show that brings life to the space.

Privacy and Protection Through Facade

Following Feng Shui principles, Krit's bedroom needed to face the front of the plot near a public road—this posed issues with privacy and security. Solution? A custom-designed steel grid facade system. This not only provides visual protection but also offers a security level from the adjacent terrace.

The slats vary in depth—deeper and denser on the road-facing side, for protection, while smaller slats on the opposite side allow natural light and views from outside. More than a functional element, this black steel cladding adds unique playful character to the minimalist black structure, perfectly reflecting Krit's vibrant personality.
