小庇护所位于清迈，其古老的城市景观和乡土建筑的特点是木质结构和瓦片倾斜的屋顶。 酒店的屋顶形式灵感来自于传统的坡屋顶，向当地建筑致敬，并以不对称的形式与周围的树顶轮廓自然地融合在一起，进行了小小的重新诠释。 屋顶的西侧部分被雕刻出来，成为一个屋顶平台，供客人在日落时分享受全景河景。
Little Shelter is located in Chiang Mai where its old cityscape and vernacular architecture are characterized by wood structure with shingle pitched roof. The hotel roof form inspired by traditional hip roofs as homage to the local architecture has a little reinterpretation with an asymmetrical form blending naturally with the surrounding tree top silhouette. The west side of the roof is partially carved out to become a roof deck for guests to enjoy the panoramic river view at sunset.
该设计通过使用主要的传统材料–木瓦，延续了当地的建筑特色。 这种材料最有趣的地方在于它的系统，已经发展了几百年。 小单元的木瓦像鱼鳞一样被铺开，成为一个防水的建筑平面。
The design continues the local architectural character through the use of the predominant traditional material – the wood shingles. The most interesting aspect of the material is in its system that has been well developed for hundreds of years. Small units of wood shingles are laid out like fish scales to become a watertight architectural plane.
该设计探索了将新材料融合到该系统中的可能性，以创造一个现代建筑表面，但又深深扎根于传统。 在河边的外墙上，聚碳酸酯板被切割成与木瓦相同的尺寸，并被建造成为建筑的半透明外墙。
The design has explored a possibility to fuse new materials into the system to create a contemporary architectural surface yet deeply rooted in tradition.The wood shingles are used on the roof and side walls. On the river facade, polycarbonate sheets are cut into the same size as wood shingles and constructed to become the architectural translucent facade.
在入口处的立面，上部由实木瓦片组成，它们向下延伸，在下部与聚碳酸酯瓦片混合。 虽然使用的是传统的瓦片系统，但不间断的半透明表面是通过使用半透明的螺柱和特殊的透明螺丝的特殊细节设计实现的。
On the entrance façade, the upper portion is composed of solid wood shingles and they trickle down to mixed with polycarbonate shingles on the lower part. Although working with the traditional shingle system, the uninterrupted translucency surface is achieved by a special detail design using translucent studs and special transparent screws.
外墙在阳光下闪闪发光，因为光线接触到不同的材料纹理，从实木瓦到聚碳酸酯瓦的不同半透明程度。 光线穿过外墙，在不同的时间随着天空光线条件的变化创造出不同的室内气氛。 在夜晚，随着内部光线的照射，建筑成为河岸上发光的灯笼。 这个结构似乎不像是一个建筑，而更像是一件工艺品。
The facade is glittering in the sun as the light touches different material grains, from the solid wood shingles to the different translucency levels of the polycarbonate shingles. The light passes through the facade and creates varying interior atmosphere at different time with the changing light condition of the sky. At night with the light from the inside, the building becomes a lantern glowing on the riverbank. The structure seems less of a building but becomes more like a piece of craftwork.
公共区域的内部与外部的简约相辅相成，给人以画廊般的感觉，容纳了受著名的Boh-Srang伞启发的特定地点的装置，并创造了精致和戏剧性的轮廓，表达了对当地手工艺的当代诠释。
The public area interior complements the exterior simplicity, gives a gallery-like feeling that accommodates the site-specific installations inspired by the famous Boh–Srang umbrella, and creates delicate and dramatic silhouettes expressing contemporary interpretation of the local handicraft.
客房内部是一个以新的角度重新发现清迈的地方，从字面上讲。 清迈的重要地点和事件的图像，如其古老的城墙、浮动的灯笼节、松树林、Pah-Chor峡谷等，都被放在整个天花板上。
The guest room interior is a place to rediscover Chiang Mai in a new angle, literally. Images of important places and events of Chiang Mai such as its ancient city wall, floating lantern festival, pine forest, Pah-Chor canyon, etc., are placed on the entire ceiling.
这些图像无限地反射到两面长长的墙壁上，上面镶有小镜面瓦，给人一种超现实的无边界感觉。 十四间客房中的每一间的图像都是不同的。 每一个房间都散发着不同的独特感觉：宁静、俏皮、文化、神秘等等，适合客人的任何喜好。
The images infinitely reflected onto the two long walls cladded with small mirror shingles, giving a surreal borderless sensation. The images are all different for each of the fourteen guest rooms. Each emanates different and unique feeling: tranquil, playful, cultured, mysterious, etc. suitable for any preferences of the guests.
小庇护所不仅是一个睡觉的地方。 它是向游客介绍清迈的过去、现在和可能的未来。
Little Shelter is not only a place to sleep. It is an introduction of the past, the present, and probably the future of Chiang Mai to its visitors.
