KORAKOT: World-Class Design Showcase Anchored in Sustainability, Rich in Community Tales

KORAKOT represents a world-class design showcase firmly rooted in sustainability, with tales as legendary as the ancient town of Ban Laem, Phetchaburi province. Emerging from local craftsmanship to artisanal furniture and décor pieces, each design stands unique, eagerly anticipated by collectors who follow the meandering trails of design narrative. These pieces, transformed from ‘backyard plants’ like bamboo, rattan, bulrush (krajood), and donax (khlum), hold more value than mere furniture, elevating community craftsmanship to high-end products coveted in the European and Polynesian markets.

Captivated by the story, Kappa Aromdee, designer and owner of the brand KORAKOT, elevates the narrative of community craftsmanship to masterpieces of global acclaim. He believes that Thai-made furniture from natural materials continues to charm and add value to itself perpetually. The allure of these stories woven in each local creation is more captivating than the artworks themselves.

KORAKOT originates from local craftsmanship. We have stories of creating works with the wisdom of our grandparents. We are actively involved in business initiatives, partnering with communities spanning from our local region to provinces afar, all in pursuit of collective progress towards sustainable development goals. Each region's native 'backyard plants' possess their own inherent charm, colours, and natural dimensions. Through our design process, they radiate a blend of 'ChicNature', characterised by its individuality and distinction, captivating art and home décor enthusiasts who value sustainability.
