Kanoon's proposal: Car Hospital (the Chaos Container)





From site analysis, the erotic quality of the site, Chiangkong is that the "Overwhelming Chaos" within the area. As design objective to keep this quality, I came up with the Design program: Car Hospital

The Car Hospital consists of 3 main units,




Front Unit

Main objective of designing Front Unit's facade is to "contain chaos" and keep it within the space inside (hospital units). This facade is aimed to create a shock space when observers get inside.
The facade's design is derived from Shrine (modernized) as to achieve one of the objective is to "bring back the origin" from the original Chiangkong Shrine in Talad Noi and also acted as shedding device.


 
Waiting area for the customers

Clinic Units

Similar to Human's Hospital, Car Hospital also consists of many units operations.
  • Bodywork
  • Engine system
  • Electrical system
  • Audio and Sound
  • Interior
  • Brake and Suspensions
which each units required different tools, different spaces, for example, Bodywork unit requires a paint booth, also Engine system Unit and Brake&Suspensions Unit need car lifts within the units.

 

 The erotic quality of the space is derived from my previous project, Erotic Art Installation, as to give the feeling of overwhelmed by being lock in the narrow space and feeling a lot of things from above.

 

Parking Unit

to store fixed cars and hand over them to customers afterward. This unit requires technical parking system which is adapted to fit in the existing shophouse structure (check this link for more information).
