RE: Sepia Saturday: Nongkhai streets early in the morning, หนองคาย: ถนนในตอนเช้าตรู่
Wow! These are fabulous sepia shots! I agree!! This generation does not take the same things into consideration when building. To be fair, a lot of them take into consideration the sun, shade and how they can fit 500 people into one building.
Sometimes more is less, right?
I truly miss seeing the old architecture and the touches of the past that used to be more prevalent in the landscape here. It seems they are dying off and a new generation of builders have gone their own way.
Wishing you a cheerful day as well!

Hahaha! Yes, I do agree that new generation of designers and builders have become very business like and they are very good at marketing their ‘spacious and modern’ units in the most efficient and profitable way. So there are talk stacks of pigeon holes for people to perch in! Gradually people are transformed into pigeons without realizing what has happened. It would be nice to have an aesthetic impact assessment of large buildings as well as EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment)
Small is beautiful!
If the buildings show some respect to dwellers, they would react differently in their surrounding. We don’t normally see people behave badly in old majestic churches, temples or beautifully designed buildings. Profits, money and speed& efficiency have become the new design criteria. So, new dwellers have become more materialistic and robot-like!
Those designers are much less happier too!
They don’t really know what they are doing to themselves and the world they live in. May be they never have a chance to live in nicely designed houses with sympathetic considerations for good living atmosphere before.
Thank you very much for your comment and generosity.
