peter harper designs projects. 30 years of experience - office located at soi naradhiwas 14, sathorn — in the commercial heart of bangkok, thailand. sathorn is the cbd of bangkok, and it's where harper architecture has quietly shaped some of the city's most distinctive interiors and built environments.
the practice covers an unusually wide range of typologies — from luxury hotels and resorts across southeast asia and the maldives, to restaurants and bars, private lofts, residential houses, mixed-use towers, sport facilities, schools, galleries, and retail shops — completed across thailand, cambodia, brunei, the maldives, laos, india, australia and beyond.
what binds every project together is the same thing it's always been: simple. cool. architecture.
