Project Summary

trasforming a guesthouse and hemp clothing shop in an open house and urban permaculture vocational training center

Project Description

This is the thai branch and shop of Payaka, a japanese firm designing and producing fabulous hemp clothing here in Thailand.

Being formerly also a guest house, we (as a family of 4) became involved with the redesigning of the whole place and the ecoreform of the buildings.
On the human level this means creating a resident community, an extended family tribe where everybody fits in learning, teaching, playing and growing in this re+evolution time.

Being here while all the rest... keeps spiraling around, travelers, families, local people and international connections.

Now we are planning a small ecoreform project using recycled materials and hempcrete, trying to involve the local University of Achitecture, various hilltribe groups searching for vocational training, an ecotour travel agent in Italy and the italian Association of hemp farmers (whom I am in touch with, promoting their produce here in Asia).

We're going to be busy... more and more, as we stack functions in this urban project and the movement of people keeps flowing.
We are already considering interns / wwoofers positions but we'll advertise about that as soon as possible.

Stay tuned and check the updates!

Legend of Badges

Note: The various badges displayed in people profiles are largely honesty-based self-proclamations by the individuals themselves. There are reporting functions users can use if they know of blatant misrepresentation (for both people and projects). Legitimacy, competency and reputation for all people and projects can be evidenced and/or developed through their providing regular updates on permaculture work they’re involved in, before/after photographs, etc. A spirit of objective nurturing of both people and projects through knowledge/encouragement/inspiration/resource sharing is the aim of the Worldwide Permaculture Network.

PRI Teacher

With the exception of the ‘Member’ who has never taken a PDC, all of the above can apply to become a PRI PDC Teacher. PRI PDC Teachers are those who the PRI recognise, through a vetting board, as determined and competent to teach the full 72-hour course as developed by Permaculture founder Bill Mollison – covering all the topics of The Designers’ Manual as well as possible (i.e. not cherry picking only aspects the teacher feels most interested or competent in). Such teachers also commit to focussing on the design science, and not including subjective spiritual/metaphysical elements. The reason these items are not included in the PDC curriculum is because they are “belief” based. Permaculture Design education concerns itself with teaching good design based on strategies and techniques which are scientifically provable.

PRI PDC Teachers may be given teaching and/or consultancy offerings as they become available as the network grows.
