  • Interior Design Director

    Nokyoong is a partner and the interior design director at VMA. She brings a wealth of experience from her freelance work with top Bangkok real estate firms like Sansiri, SC-Asset, Pruksa, and Ananda Development.

  • Project Architect

    Kim is our go-to resource for technical drawing, tackling design issues with expertise. With a knack for problem-solving, he's an experienced member of our team. His keen interest ranges from K-pop to the latest tech news, earning him the title of 'Mr. Know-All' in our studio. Beyond work, he's a tech enthusiast and a collector of model figures. Kim’s vast knowledge and engaging discussions add a lively spark to our creative environment.

  • Project Architect / Interior Designer

    Proud, our lead designer, holds a deep appreciation for Japanese art, culture, and food. Entrusted to steer projects alongside our design directors, her dedication smooths the journey from concept to completion. When she isn't working on a creative project at the studio, she's probably out capturing charming cat pictures for her Instagram followers. Weekends are a whirl of events for her, yet come Monday, she's recharged and ready. Her fresh experiences continually fuel our innovative design solutions.

  • Interior Designer

    Yuki is our talented interior designer with a specialty in visualizations and a great interest in modern minimalist design. Her strong work ethic, rooted in her Thai-Japanese heritage, elevates our designs while her happy, positive vibe brightens our team spirit. And when lunchtime rolls around, her homemade obento never fails to make us all envious.

  • Architect

    Pangmee, our junior architect from the serene city of Phuket, brings a keen eye for design along with a tidal wave of positivity. Her kindness, hardworking attitude, and collaborative spirit foster a harmonious team dynamic. Outside of the drawing board, she loves finding fresh new cafes and has an interest in baking as well.

  • Product Manager / Brand Director

    Peemai is one of the studio's original members. He is in charge of our ‘VMA Home’ product design line and digital marketing. He also has a double identity as a cabin crew who travels the globe looking for innovative products and ideas to enrich our work.
