Fai-Fah Bangkok
Fai-Fah, which means “light energy”, is a corporate social responsibility programme initiated by TMB Bank. The programme acts as a catalyst for change in Thai society through working with underprivileged children and teenagers in their community using the arts as a vehicle for self-development and creative thinking. The architects were invited to design Fai-Fah Prachautis, the refurbishment of two shop houses located in a residential district of Bangkok.
