spacious suites boast a variety of bespoke design features, including handwoven carpets manufactured by SinoSiam Carpet Company, olive-hued silk panelled walls, Corian-topped tables and desks, teak cabinetry and bed panels made by Thai weaving artist Kachama, all seamlessly integrated by WOHA for a residential effect. Urban Suites have a unique interior garden planted with tropical greenery, Edge Suites maximise their cantilevered corners with inset day beds, and Vertigo Suites offer cantilevered bedrooms complete with Japanese-style mattresses. Glass panelled doors allow for the open-plan spaces to be divided when privacy is required, such as in the luxurious bathrooms equipped with customised wet rooms, bathtubs and sinks made of new age terrazzo by Apaiser. As Eve restaurant and Café Boca are intended to have distinct identities, two additional designers have developed interiors


for these venues. Serving cuisine with a French and Mediterranean influence, Eve takes its lead from feminine accessories, according to Etienne Vetillart. Padded fabric walls mimic handbags, screen dividers constructed of solid teak and powder-coated steel suggest mannequins or jewellery links and steel mesh screenwork around the open kitchen is inspired by fishnet stockings. He has also selected sculptural high-back seating in plum and bespoke lighting fixtures made of cascading brass panels for the restaurant, which shares an attractive outdoor terrace with Vue. Café Boca, in contrast, has a cosier, neighbourhood feel, with Suchate Ingsudhum using treated light teak wood and pearl-toned stone tiles as a setting for easy-to-eat Thai cuisine and patisserie. Simple yet sophisticated, Hansar Bangkok’s


understated style is rooted in Thailand through the choice of materials, artwork and furnishings – but the result is never overdone. As Chayavichitsilp concludes: “When there are so many great local resources to draw on, there is no need to look any further.”
