Designed by HAS Design and Research in collaboration with KIN Thailand\u2014a rising brand under the S-ONE group\u2014the installation earned the prestigious Thematic Pavilion Award 2024. Now, as S-ONE returns to the spotlight with a new Thematic Pavilion under the name S-ONE GROUP, all eyes are on the studio tasked with this year\u2019s design\u2014and what surprises they might unveil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">When <strong>Looklen Architects<\/strong> has been unveiled as the designing studio, limits would certainly be crossed. Known for their playful and inventive design language, Looklen Architects are set to break new ground\u2014both conceptually and materially\u2014by showcasing the transformative potential of aluminum through a fresh, engaging architectural narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1152\" src=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15789\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_01-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">From the diagram, the design by Looklen Architects departs from ornate spectacle, opting instead for minimalist elegance. It presents aluminum as an \u201chonest material,\u201d exploring its raw aesthetic and structural potential. The pavilion\u2019s core form is generated from a twisted grid system, which informs the modular column-and-beam framework. Bundles of aluminum are woven to strengthen the structure, while custom-cut aluminum elements form the basis of furniture and display installations designed to foster interaction between visitors and space.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1706\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15790\" style=\"width:556px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-scaled.jpg 1706w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_02-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1706px) 100vw, 1706px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">What\u2019s the concept behind this design? We sat down with <strong>Khun Ton &#8211; N<\/strong><strong>u<\/strong><strong>ttapol Techopitch<\/strong>, founder of <strong>Looklen Architects<\/strong>, to delve into the inspiration behind this year\u2019s Thematic Pavilion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>CONCEPT<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Khun Ton told us that the vision was a collaborative ambition between S-ONE and Looklen Architects to create a public space that embodies the brand\u2019s identity and future-forward vision. The goal is to invite visitors into a novel experience of aluminum\u2014not just as a material, but as a medium for architectural and multimedia storytelling\u2014while ensuring that all materials used can be repurposed post-exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15791\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03-1536x1086.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_03.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>\u201cTaking Time to Do Nothing\u201d: The Art of Leaving Materials Untouched<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Rooted in circular design thinking, the pavilion embraces minimal intervention: letting the material speak for itself. Through every square meter of the Thematic Pavilion, the honest and pure features of aluminium shines through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The public may perceive that \u2018doing nothing\u2019 or \u2018doing the least\u2019 to the material might sound effortless. In the design industry, it is known that \u2018doing\u2019 is easier than \u2018not doing\u2019. Because choosing to preserve a material\u2019s rawness means truly investing time to study and understand it and when you choose not to process it, you are also embracing a whole host of unpredictable variables\u2014ranging from design and installation challenges to the smallest, often overlooked details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>\u201cThe challenge is we wanted to create a beautiful pavilion without altering the material. We\u2019re showcasing aluminum as it is\u2014untouched\u2014and designing with modularity in mind so that every piece can be reused. It derives this idea that we need to understand the nature of aluminum. For instance, aluminum arrives in 6.35-meter lengths from the factory. We designed everything to work with this full length or shorter, reusable segments of 2.5 meters. That decision became the design\u2019s core.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15792\" style=\"width:718px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04-1536x1086.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_04.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Raw Beauty \u2013 Real Sustainability<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Beautiful \/ Raw \/ Good<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">From a conceptual diagram rooted in the intention to minimize material processing and offer a fresh perspective to viewers, the design had to evolve into a real-world installation within a rectangular space.

operates under a large network of companies, each with its own unique offerings. Showcasing everything in a single space would diminish the message. So instead, we divided the presentation into different sections. One highlight is an interactive zone where visitors can place a specific section of aluminium on a designated scanner. Once scanned, a screen reveals real-world architectural projects that utilized that very aluminium type. Another creative touch is a display of scrap aluminium turned into art. Rather than being discarded, these leftover pieces are repurposed as value-added design elements, allowing visitors to recognize the potential beauty and sustainability hidden in what is often overlooked.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15805\" style=\"width:590px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/architectexpo.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/TP_Looklen-x-S-ONE_16-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Scraps used as mock-up art piece in the event<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>CO-CREATION THEMATIC PAVILION<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>When Teams Play Together<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The result\u2014a pavilion with <strong>no waste, no paint, no excess<\/strong>\u2014was born from true cross-disciplinary teamwork between S-ONE and Looklen Architects.
