Thomas Elliott

Thomas Elliott and PAI are on a continual exploration of how to make beautiful buildings, spaces, and objects. This uniquely presented monograph will take you on journey through a collection of these buildings and spaces; projects that represent beauty in some of its infinite forms. PAI has a longstanding reputation for crafting original, bespoke design across residential, hospitality, hotel, commercial, and master planning projects. Thomas Elliott: Directions, by the design director at PAI, showcases an exquisite collection of projects by this exceptional Southeast Asian design studio. The monograph takes readers on a journey through the ways in which PAI manifests beauty in its work. Projects are distilled through the physical and sensorial qualities that Elliott explores to create beautiful buildings and spaces that stir an emotional response. Sometimes you see these qualities, such as materiality, palette, and light. Sometimes you feel them, such as anticipation and transitions. Yet they are all highly considered and carefully layered to create spaces that Elliott and PAI characterize as "comfort luxury" and that have a positive emotional affect. For those who love beautiful architecture and interior design, Thomas Elliott: Directions is a rich and luxurious experience, just like the work PAI crafts for its clients.
