Collector's Villa: Luxury living in Thailand

Collector's Villa is one of luxury villas of Iniala Beach House located in Phang Nga, Thailand that was designed by 4 leading global designers and craftsmen to create a masterpiece, a series of wonderfully electic and luxury living spaces in a contemporary interpretation of a classic Thai house.

Iniala Beach House's description: Fashioned from Golden teak with accentuated eaves and beautiful tiles, the architecture brings a contemporary twist on the traditional wooden Thai house. The Campana Brothers created a beautiful central courtyard with pillars clad in broken Thai ceramics. The lavish swimming pool with the beautiful crystal dining room bring grandness to this spectacular abode.

"The ceramic temple of Wat Arun inspires the 'Living room of the sea'; the walls are encrusted with 3,000 ceramic plates. The sea inspires the huge blue starfish sofa and anemone chairs. The spectacular “Cinema of Nature” is clad in coconut skin and filled with fabulous furry green Cipria sofas, complete with fantastic surround sound and a wonderful 160-inch screen. The “Pearl Spa” walls and ceiling are completely covered in mother of pearl and gold and bronze furniture complement this shimmering space."

From Jamie Hayon: States the room is “inspired by tropical elegance, refinement and sophistication. It reflects the essence of the beauty of the area surrounding it and transmits the same peaceful sensation of its dreamlike environment: light, soft, feminine, dignified in simplicity. The enchanting glamour of its contours, the suave selection of noble materials, every element in the room is designed with attention to detail and focus on transmitting warmth and serenity.

From Joseph Walsh: It is unusual for any designer to have the opportunity to create an entire space with one's work. The diverse elements of natural, sculpted ash, the fluid forms of transparent resin that refracts the light, the woven silk and wool tapestry and the mass of hand carved stone interact cohesively within the space. I hope the balance between soft, fluid shapes and rigid, hard forms creates a thoughtful and disciplined ambiance.

From Mark Brazier Jones: We are presenting an atmosphere of intimate mystery. A night time ambiance of mirrors, twinkling crystals and jewel coloured fabrics that a couple can share yet with corners of demure privacy. This is a private theatre, a jewelry box. It possesses its own poem for its inhabitants to make up as they go along...

From Fernando and Humberto Campana: The motivation of the Campanas to participate in this project comes from the dual DNA of Iniala Beach House. First, the willingness to create an ultimately unique experience for guests. And, secondly, and as equally important, their commitment to support and improve the lives of the local community
