The Library is a new conceptual resort located in the heart of Chaweng Beach in Ko Samui, Thailand. The project was originated by Kasemtham Sornsong the land owner whose desire is to develop an inherited piece of land to be more efficient as well as preserve existing nature as much as possible.

The piece of land is approx. 4 Rais or 1.5 acres with 50-metre beachfront area. Apart from an idea to preserve existing nature on the site, the project was inspired by the basic way of life and our belief that ‘the real happiness is not complicated at all’.

Reading posture of relaxed travelers is our inspirations and becomes our ideal concept to build a smart-relaxing place where guests can indulge in a very unique atmosphere to actualize their holiday experience. And that’s how ‘The Library’ came into our mind.

Being ‘The Library’ is to delivery a lifestyle holiday experience with our uniquely different character plus smart attractive services of the team. Each unit within The Library has its title exemplified from each part of a book.

   

 

An Exotic Smart Conceptis a conclusion of our project design. Semi-minimalist architecture is our solution as it provides a very simple architecture and interior which has a balance with surrounding nature. To complement with architecture style, a smart interactive between staff and guests is added up to ensure that the right combination of both facilities and staff will create a perfect blend of the project.

As for atmosphere within the Project, we set a tone of feeling to be a cool smart-relaxing place with attractive appearance and interesting theme. Green from grass in our garden decorated with art pieces and sculptures will be key element for our landscape. White theme of the building by the beach, a vivid red swimming pool overlooking to the sea and grey tone of the Restaurant – these are visualized overview concept of the Project.

Highlight of the project is The Library Building located by the beach named itself after the project’s title. The White building with high huge ceiling equipped with glass window pane all around will enrich purity, serenity and peace.

The Library Building consists of three box-style units adjoining together where the middle box is an open-air serving as a mini-café. The other two boxes are the huge library for not only books but also other entertainment media such as music CD, movie DVD. In addition, there will be a small corner for internet access with broadband connection. Guests will enjoy sipping a cup of coffee, writing e-mail, listening to music with sea views.
