Featured Pieces

Tamarind Round
Tamarind Round 2
Tamarind Round 3

Round tables level the room

Tamarind Round

A round table makes everyone equally close, equally distant. There is no head, no corner, no hierarchy. I made this table because I wanted a dining experience that did not assign importance before anyone sat down. The tamarind wood was the craftsman's choice — he said it was the wood that remembered being a tree.

Teak Oval
Teak Oval 2
Teak Oval 3

The compromise that pleases everyone

Teak Oval

The oval is not a circle and not a rectangle. It is the solution for a room that cannot decide, a client who likes the intimacy of round but needs the capacity of rectangular. I designed this table three times before I accepted that the oval was right and the other two attempts were avoidance.

Studio Table
Studio Table 2
Studio Table 3

Made to look like it has always been here

Studio Table

A client said: I want a table that looks like it has always been here. That brief contains more than it appears. Always-been-here means no visible era, no trend reference, no styling. It means material confidence without material display. This table is my answer to that. It took longer to design than any other piece in the collection.

Garden Companion
Garden Companion 2
Garden Companion 3

Built to weather — not to endure

Garden Companion

There is a difference between furniture that endures and furniture that weathers. Endurance is about resistance. Weathering is about change — the patina that accumulates, the silver that teak develops in the sun, the character that outdoor exposure adds. This table was designed to weather gracefully.

The Long Table
The Long Table 2
The Long Table 3

Started from a Songkran question

The Long Table

A family asked me to make a table that could hold everyone at Songkran. Fourteen people, three generations. I asked how many on a normal night — four. The table extends from two metres to four. What came out of this commission became our most-ordered piece: not because everyone has fourteen relatives, but because everyone understands the aspiration of a table that can grow.

Float Table
Float Table 2
Float Table 3

The base disappears. Only the surface remains.

Float Table

The design instruction I gave was: I want to see only the table top. The base should not be a feature. Three attempts before the base was slender enough to become invisible at normal viewing distance. The craftsman found it unsettling — a table top that appears to float. That was the intention.

Siam Lounge
Siam Lounge 2
Siam Lounge 3

Where rattan meets restraint

Siam Lounge

The first piece I commissioned in Bangkok. I gave the craftsman one instruction: make something that looks like it has always been in the room. Three prototypes, two months of adjustment to the arm angle. What came back was this — rattan wrapped over solid teak, the joint hidden, the curve exactly right.

Mae Klong
Mae Klong 2
Mae Klong 3

The river taught us the curve

Mae Klong

Named for the river whose bends informed the silhouette of this back. I sat by the Mae Klong for an afternoon with a sketchbook. What I noticed was that the river never corners — it persuades. The back of this chair persuades in the same way.

Nipa Nest
Nipa Nest 2
Nipa Nest 3

Shelter that breathes

Nipa Nest

The nipa palm grows at the boundary between river and land. It shelters without enclosing. This chair was designed from that idea — a back that wraps without trapping, a seat that holds without gripping. It took four attempts to find the weave density that let air through while keeping the structure.

Nipa Nest II
Nipa Nest II 2
Nipa Nest II 3

The same brief, a deeper answer

Nipa Nest II

A client asked me what would happen if you sat in the Nipa Nest for a whole afternoon. So I adjusted the seat depth by 4 centimetres, softened the lumbar point, and rebuilt the arm in teak rather than rattan. This is what I gave her.

Doi Chair
Doi Chair 2
Doi Chair 3

The silhouette of the northern hills

Doi Chair

Doi means mountain in Thai. This high-back chair was drawn after a drive north of Chiang Mai — the long verticals of the pine forest at dusk compressed into a single back. I kept the geometry strict. The craftsman kept the grain. Between the two intentions, this piece appeared.

Teak Monograph
Teak Monograph 2
Teak Monograph 3

One material. One argument.

Teak Monograph

No weave. No upholstery. No secondary material. Only the grain of the teak and the precision of the mortise-and-tenon joint. I made this piece as a statement: a chair can be entirely honest and still be beautiful. The craftsman who built it said it was the most difficult easy thing he had ever made.

Lennart
Lennart 2
Lennart 3

Named for the man who made it

Lennart

Lennart does not use blueprints. He builds from a conversation, a photograph, and thirty years of muscle memory. I gave him a photograph of a chair I had seen in a magazine and asked him to forget the photograph and build what he thought I meant. This is what he built. It is better than the photograph.

Dining chairs, side chairs — Thai craft at its finest

Featured Pieces

Form Side
Form Side 2
Form Side 3

Three legs. One intention.

Form Side

The brief was: occupy the smallest possible footprint without disappearing. Three legs achieve this where four cannot — the negative space becomes part of the design. I spent two weeks deciding on the leg angle before the craftsman was allowed to begin.

Frame Dining
Frame Dining 2
Frame Dining 3

The chair as an argument for honesty

Frame Dining

Every joint is visible. Every connection is explained. I made this chair because I was frustrated with furniture that hides its construction behind decorative panels. If the making is good, show the making. This chair shows everything.

Siam Side
Siam Side 2
Siam Side 3

A companion piece with its own voice

Siam Side

Built in the same atelier as the Siam Lounge, by the same craftsman, from the same teak stock. But the conversation was different — this one was about a chair that could stand alone at a desk, a dressing table, a window. Less lounging, more listening.

Suanpak
Suanpak 2
Suanpak 3

Garden rest — a name earned, not given

Suanpak

Suanpak means garden rest in Thai. The name was not mine — it was the craftsman's daughter who said it when she first sat in the prototype. It stuck because it was true. This chair was designed for the hour before dinner, in the garden, when the light changes and you do not want to be inside yet.

Threshold
Threshold 2
Threshold 3

For the moment of arrival

Threshold

A bench exists at the boundary between inside and outside — it is where you sit to remove your shoes, to pause before entering, to delay leaving. I designed this piece for that specific moment. The height, the depth, the material — everything optimised for a transaction that lasts thirty seconds and shapes the memory of a place.

Maenam Sectional
Maenam Sectional 2
Maenam Sectional 3

Each part complete in itself

Maenam Sectional

Maenam means river in Thai — something that assembles from tributaries into one form. This sectional was designed with the same logic: each module is a resolved piece of furniture on its own. When you join them, the result is a sofa. When you separate them, each piece works independently in a different room. I made this for a client who was about to move and did not know the size of her next living room.

Portrait — coming

Yunmin Shin

Founder & Curator

“I grew up between two design cultures. Korea taught me restraint. Thailand taught me soul. This studio is where they meet.”

After a decade designing for premium brands in Seoul, I moved to Bangkok and discovered something remarkable: master furniture craftspeople producing work that rivalled anything in Milan or Copenhagen — yet entirely invisible to the global market.

Thai Sourcing Agent exists to close that gap. We work directly with three family-owned workshops — never factories — to produce pieces that carry both the precision of Korean design and the warmth of Thai hands.
