Living in the Environment Issue

Issue 62 is the first issue of the year and always a great time to put our best foot forward. With Adam Goodrum, the loveliest man in design, as Guest Editor, we draw on his insights as a furniture designer, artist and educator to look at the makers shaping our design world. Sustainability has never been more important, and increasingly this is a consideration from the start with projects designed to address their immediate environment as well as the longevity of the planet. From the coldest winters to the most tropical of summers, addressing how we live in the environment is crucial to creating the perfect home.

X2 Kui Buri Thailand

Thailand

We introduce you to another of the X2 (Cross To) Resorts in Thailand.


Can you ever have enough of Thailand escapes? We think not. So bring on another instalment of the X2 series of hotels, X2 Kui Buri.

With architecture and interiors designed by Duangrit Bunnag, this resort represents a minimal aesthetic, free of embellishments – allowing the natural beauty and raw architecture to shine through.

 

 

 

 

There are 23 villas including garden, pool and beachside villas – overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. The most striking feature is the stone walls used throughout the resort – solid, intriguing structures made from local stone.

 

 

 

 

Floor-to-ceiling, bi-fold timber and glass windows give s softness and transparency to the stone walls.

 

There are a number of shared facilities including a large pool, rooftop terrace bar and the 4K Restaurant, while you’re private villa has everything you need, from a fireplace to music and reading libraries.

 


 

As with most resorts of this calibre, the beauty is in the relationship between the architecture and the natural surroundings. Escape is most certainly the word at X2 Kui Buri.
