Exofood Thailand是一个位于泰国曼谷的智能和新的未来思维的小企业。 它是由一小群对城市背景下的智能和可持续农业系统感兴趣的年轻人建立的。由于空间有限，”垂直农业 “成为关键概念，可以为像曼谷这样的大城市提供食品生产的空间。他们特别关注昆虫，因为昆虫是动物和人类的最大蛋白质来源之一。在不久的将来，这种业务会变得越来越重要，因为有了Covid19和食物短缺的问题。
Exofood Thailand is a smart and new future-forward thinking small business based in Bangkok, Thailand . It is established by a small young group of people who are interested in smart and sustainable farming system in the city context. With limited space, “vertical farming” become key concept that can provide spaces for food productions in the big city such as Bangkok. They are focusing especially on insects which are one of the biggest protein sources for animals and human. This business become more and more important after covid19 and food shortage in the near future.
然而，人类对昆虫的看法大多是负面的，尽管它们的卫生状况和反叛。为Exofood实验室和零售店进行室内设计的挑战是帮助完全改变这些看法，并给参观者带来全新的体验。未来主义的现代外观和简单的材料被提供给这个零售空间，而清洁和整齐是最重要的元素。
However, human perception on insects are mostly negative, despite their in-sanitation and revolt. The challenge of designing interior for Exofood lab and retail is to help changing these perception completely and giving the whole new experience to the visitors. The futuristic modern look with simple and few materials is offered to this retail space while cleanness and neatness are the important elements above all.
一边的墙是垂直的货架系统，里面有各种昆虫的盒子，代表了垂直农业的理念。每个柱子都由简单的本地建筑材料分割，即金属锌C型线框架，通常用于建造石膏隔墙。每个货架的边缘都涂上了霓虹灯，使整个零售空间显得年轻而有趣。
The wall on one side is vertical shelving system containing boxes of variety of insects, representing the vertical farming idea. Each columns divided by simple and local construction material which is metal-zinc c-line frame, normally use for constructing gypsum partition. Neon color painted on the edge of each shelves, created young and playful look to the whole retail space.
由于预算不多，我们决定使用T5荧光灯，但安装了一排聚碳酸酯板，以帮助掩盖店面的荧光灯。它们成为主要设计元素之一，为空间创造了有趣的照明效果和新的氛围。
With small budget, we decided to use fluorescent t5 bulbs, but installed rows of polycarbonate panels to help conceal fluorescent lights from the shop front. They become one of the main design elements, creating interesting lighting effect and new atmosphere to the space.
泰国Exofood是新成立的企业，也做设计项目。室内设计显然呈现了他们正在做的事情，他们对自己业务的看法和愿景。最后，他们的空间将不仅仅是一个销售产品的零售空间，而且还提供空间来讲述故事、实验、学习和证明他们的信念。
Exofood Thailand is new startup business, also does the design program. The interior design obviously presented what they are doing, their perspective and visions towards their business. In the end, their space will never be only a retail space selling their products but also offering space to tell the story, experiment , learn and proving what they believe.
