MEEN Restaurant is located by the ocean in the northern part of Pattaya called Naklua district. MEEN is surrounded by a natural landscape and traditional fishing village. Inspiration taken directly from the village and fruitful nature influenced the restaurant's architecture and interior. The siting and form-making took their cue from the fluidity, layering, and interaction of the natural form.

The architect chose rope to reflect the fishing community and local respects. Apply tying and knotting methods of the rope along the ceiling’s structural elements to enhance three-dimensional effects as if it lives the underneath of the boat.

The architect handpicks an old teak material, recycle, and shape it into the serving counters. Then, translate the boat’s keel and rip frame elements into a structural language of the serving counters to store and shelf-in bowls and plates.

The architect completes the floor materials with the terrazzo as natural grounds of the restaurant that ultimately tie architecture, interiors, and natural elements as one.
