This 2nd phrase of the project 'Situation' is the further investigation of action within the site related to the chosen parameters in prior phrase of the project. Students now get to observe the action that explain the most of the parameter and design the construction to create the changes within the field of chosen action. In this particular project, it is narrowed down to only focus on the parameter of extremely narrow space of operation in the noodle shop and the movement of both workers and customers throughout the space.

This 1st phrase of the project of ’Situation’ is an introduction to the representation of situations  and parameters in the format of ‘mapping’. Each of year one studio group is assigned to observes specific location throughout the capital, Bangkok. The observation needs to include the parameters chosen from 2 different categories of spatial and atmospheric. Students then start in designing the representative map of their individual parameter along with designing the collective map that includes all the layers of parameters from all students in their studio group.

BOTAN (meaning “button” in Japanese), designed by Annia Fardha Nabila, is no ordinary button. Above and below the button holes are additional engraved shapes that give the impression of two people standing. When a string is inserted through the holes, it looks like they are holding hands, expressing the message, “I’m with you!” Crafted from wood with a red-ish hue to represent Japan, BOTAN can be used as a myriad of fashion accessories, whether a necklace, bracelet, key chain or button. As UNESCO states, “The color red, the button hole design, and the concept of thread symbolizing connection are what led us to select BOTAN as the winner.”
