Sustainable Small-Scale Hospitality Projects

PAVA Designs the Nachan the Antique Courtyard Hotel

PAVA architects has completed Nachan The Antique Courtyard Hotel, a small-scale hospitality project in Chiang Khan, Loei, Thailand. The project has received the Architizer A+Awards 2026 Jury Winner in the Sustainable Hospitality Building Category and the ASA Excellent Architecture Awards 2026.

The Nachan The Antique Courtyard Hotel is distinguished by its harmonious integration with the serene Mekong River landscape. The project is designed as a tranquil village cluster that minimizes its footprint through the use of reclaimed timber sourced from old houses, abandoned warehouses, and local rice mills. PAVA architects respected existing trees by arranging guest rooms around triangular courtyards that provide privacy and a humble connection to the earth.

The material palette is drawn from locally available, naturally weathering resources, including handmade brick, on-site earth plaster mixed with native grass, and reused timber.
