The creative director for home furnishings at Thai silk company Jim Thompson shares his favourite designs and destinations.
A modern-day Renaissance man, the Thai-born, British-raised Ou Baholyodhin has dabbled in all kinds of design, from home and hospitality interiors to furnishings to bathroom appliances; he even penned his first book in 2000, Living with Zen. After founding his own design practice, Ou Baholyodhin Studio, he was appointed the creative director for home furnishings at Thai silk company Jim Thompson, which is largely credited for revitalising the country’s silk industry in the 1950s. We caught up with Ou on a visit to Hong Kong to scope some of his design inspirations and explore his favourite destinations.
