Rachaporn Choochuey is co-founder and Design Director of all(zone) ltd, an architecture and design studio in Bangkok known for reuse and recycling, and employing local materials and techniques in bold new ways. The studio’s projects include the MAIIAM Contemporary Art Museum in Chiang Mai, a dramatic transformation of a warehouse using contemporary techniques inspired by traditional Thai temple architecture; as well as its entry in the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial 2015, a quickly installed “half-temporary” dwelling designed to address unaffordable housing and utilise vacant high rises in Bangkok.

Choochuey trained at Chulalongkorn University, Columbia University and Tokyo University, and teaches in the Faculty of Architecture at Chulalongkorn University, devoting considerable time to teaching in Thailand and abroad.
