Setthasiri Lumlukkha

The entrance to the Setthasiri Lumlukkha residential development in Thailand is a landscape design by Landscape Tectonix Limited. Inspired by the movement of birds, the main gate "reaches toward the sky" with a distinctive multi-layered gate skin and a striking, inclined roof that reads as a bird in flight against the sky. The approach to the entrance follows a winding road, uniformly lined with mature trees on both sides, so that the drive is deliberately enclosed and contained, and the huge, open gate suddenly appears at the end of the approach as a revealing, welcome moment. The contrast between the shaded, linear tree corridor and the suddenly opened, upward-reaching portal is the core of the design gesture: the gate is not a barrier but a threshold that announces arrival into the residential community. The project is a residential entry landscape, located in Thailand, and is organised as a single memorable arrival gesture rather than as a sequence of ornamental gardens. Project details are limited in the source material.
