Pavara Vhana is located on a lush, forested hillside in Phuket, offering an immersive connection to the surrounding natural environment. The design envisions integration between built structures and the forest, celebrating local materials and the unique ecological context of the site.

The architectural design is deeply rooted in the local context, combining traditional Thai vernacular elements with modern innovation to create a home that withstands the local climate and enhances the quality of life. Every design decision was made with the intention of fitting with the natural surroundings, creating a balance between luxury and comfort.

Landscape architecture enhances this vision.
The design brief includes a dramatic yet understated entry with a winding forested driveway and natural stone features. Outdoor living spaces incorporate expansive terraces, garden lounges and infinity pools. Natural shading and building orientation are used to reduce heat gain. Pathways are designed as quiet moments of exploration within the forest. Recreational spaces include meditation gardens, outdoor yoga decks and communal shaded pavilions for gatherings.

At the clubhouse, a 20-metre lap pool adopts an organic shape, contrasted by curved edges and gentle transitions. A slightly elevated oval-shaped bridge crafted from teakwood and natural stone serves as a key architectural element. Step planters cascade gently from the bridge into the drop-off area. Indigenous plants and soft landscaping surround the pool, with shade trees and pergolas creating relaxing lounging spaces.

Pavara Vhana ultimately combines refined design, spatial quality and contextual sensitivity, set within Phuket’s tropical hillside environment.
