Sheltering Dreams

"Sheltering Dreams" is a project addressing the pressing issues of climate change and its impact on children's safety. Inspired by Bangkok's challenges due to rising sea levels, it focuses on designing a flood shelter for the city's children. The design process was both challenging and innovative, involving the use of waterproof concrete to ensure structural stability and incorporating design elements for natural lighting and ventilation. Despite material challenges during model making, the project successfully conveyed its design intent through detailed renderings, floor plans, and elevations. "Sheltering Dreams" is more than just a design project; it represents a profound understanding of the impact of climate change and a commitment to children's welfare. It reflects the creator's ability to balance aesthetics with functionality, adapt to challenges with patience and flexibility, and consider the social and cultural context in design. The project aims to inspire further exploration and innovation, contributing to the creation of a safer and more beautiful future.

As an artist and designer, my creative journey is deeply influenced by the pressing environmental and societal challenges of our era. The urgency of climate change, the pursuit of sustainability, and a profound concern for the welfare of children are the cornerstones that guide my artistic vision. My work serves as a catalyst for dialogue, aiming to ignite conversations about the role of design in addressing global issues. I strive to create designs that are not only visually appealing but also serve a purpose, fostering a safer and more inclusive future for all.

My intention is to use my art and design as a medium to not only highlight the problems we face but also to propose and inspire potential solutions. I believe in the power of creativity to transform challenges into opportunities, and I am dedicated to inspiring both imagination and action within my audience. Through my work, I hope to encourage a collective effort towards a more sustainable and equitable world, where design is seen as a vital tool for positive change.
