TONYRAKA ART LOUNGE

The project proposes a living room for creative exchange: a space where art and everyday life intersect. It extends the existing gallery into a welcoming social environment, inviting visitors to gather, observe, and take part in a shared creative culture. The architectural approach bridges past and present, pairing local building traditions with contemporary form to create a balanced, resonant contrast.
 

Set among traditional structures, the building reads as a modern counterpoint. Passive cooling strategies and framed openings connect the interior experience to its surroundings, from the calm of the adjacent pond to the presence of the nearby temple. The material palette—raw brick, cement render, timber, and exposed steel—builds a textured spatial character. A monolithic stone element grounds the composition, while a 270-degree bar dissolves the threshold between host and guest, supporting an open, continuous atmosphere for interaction and making.
