The Overview
A trained architect, Sangkorn "Joe" Soonthornkasemsuk began by importing authentic pieces from Scandinavia, but later moved into reproductions as originals became scarcer. Located in his 1970’s bungalow, the brightly lit, crammed showroom features skillfully made replicas of designs by such Modernist heavyweights as Hans Wegner and Finn Juhl, two of Joe's design heroes. Take your pick of sofas, armchairs, side tables, dining chairs and more. Every item is customizable; there's dozens of swatches to choose from, but make sure to ask Joe about the retro fabrics that he buys off eBay. The showroom is only open in the afternoons, so best to call before you make the trek.
