Landmark Projects
Two projects that demonstrate our capability to deliver at the highest levels of luxury and precision.

Choeng Mon Beach, Koh Samui
Selected as construction and interior fit-out partner for Thailand’s most anticipated luxury resort opening. The 58-acre property features 175 suites and pool villas with contemporary interiors using coconut and natural materials.
This project demanded precision that would withstand daily scrutiny from the world’s most discerning travelers. Every finish, every joint, every material had to meet international 5-star benchmarks.

Bangkok & Samut Prakarn
Selected as official design partner for Southeast Asia’s largest superyacht refit facility. 112,000 sqm ISO-certified shipyard with capacity for vessels up to 95 metres.

Koh Samui & Phuket
Two decades of luxury residential construction across Thailand’s premier island destinations. Every villa built with the same standards we applied to The Ritz-Carlton.

Leadership
Founder & Principal
With over two decades of experience building in Southeast Asia’s most challenging coastal environments, Tanley has assembled a team and methodology that consistently delivers what others cannot execute.
His portfolio includes work on The Ritz-Carlton Koh Samui, partnership with Italthai Marine for superyacht interiors, and hundreds of private villas for discerning international clients. This rare combination of 5-star hospitality and marine industry experience creates a quality benchmark unmatched in the residential market.
“Design loses value the moment it’s handed to people who don’t fully understand it. That’s why we control the entire process β from BIM coordination through final finish β ensuring your vision survives translation into reality.”
Our Operating System
We internalized the critical chokepoints where design typically loses value during execution.
Archi Studio is not just a design practice β it’s the decision-making authority for the entire project lifecycle. We maintain design authority from concept through completion.

Ancra executes within a framework defined by Archi Studio. This separation ensures accountability while maintaining quality. Design leads, construction follows.

KraftLine solves a specific industry failure: traditional carpentry cannot reliably reproduce complex design intent at scale. We bypassed it with CNC precision.

Technology
Building Information Modeling isn’t a buzzword for us β it’s how we achieve 97% budget accuracy and eliminate the surprises that plague traditional construction.
Every project is digitally constructed before ground is broken. Clashes are detected in the model, not on site. Changes are costed before they’re made.

Client Experiences
“In the ultra-luxury charter market, the smallest detail matters. The execution of the cabins was flawless. From the soundproofing to the bespoke cabinetry, the craftsmanship helps us deliver an unforgettable ‘seven-star’ experience to our guests.”
“The transformation is unbelievable. We needed to take an aging property and turn it into a true 5-star destination to compete in Samui’s luxury market. The design team didn’t just renovate; they reimagined the entire guest experience. The value of the asset has doubled.
“Managing a superyacht interior fit-out requires precise coordination. The weekly progress reports and 3D detailing ensured that every piece of furniture fit perfectly the first time, keeping our launch schedule on track and within the refit budget.”
“What impressed us most was the finish quality. Meeting the Ritz-Carlton ‘Gold Standard’ means zero tolerance for imperfections. From the marble installation to the intricate timber joinery, their fit-out team delivered craftsmanship that seamlessly matched the hotelβs existing grandeur.”
“What impressed us most was the attention to detail in the styling. For Ferringhi Residence, we needed a balance between luxury and tropical relaxation. The furniture selection and soft furnishings created a warm, inviting atmosphere that helped potential buyers visualize their weekend getaways here.”
“The phasing plan saved us from shutting down the Outpatient Department. Renovating a live hospital is a logistical nightmare, but their team managed dust control, noise levels, and infection barriers so effectively that our daily operations continued with zero disruption.”

Questions
It means every system we use β from quality control checklists to finish standards to material specifications β has been tested against 5-star hospitality benchmarks. The Ritz-Carlton demands finishes that withstand daily scrutiny from guests paying premium rates. We apply those same standards to your private villa, ensuring your investment maintains its value and appeal.
Traditional construction involves an architect who hands drawings to a contractor who subcontracts to specialists. At each handoff, design intent is diluted. Our integrated system keeps design authority (Archi Studio) in control throughout, with construction (Ancra) and manufacturing (KraftLine) executing under unified project management. One point of accountability, one vision preserved.
Yacht interiors demand materials that survive salt air, UV exposure, and tropical humidity β exactly what coastal villas face. Our Italthai Marine partnership taught us to specify finishes that perform in these conditions. More importantly, yacht construction allows zero tolerance for “close enough” β millimeter precision is standard. That discipline now defines our residential work.
Building Information Modeling creates a complete digital twin of your project before construction begins. Every element β structural, MEP, interiors β is modeled in 3D. This allows us to detect clashes before they become expensive site problems, generate accurate material quantities for reliable budgets, and provide weekly visual progress reports. It’s why we achieve 97% budget accuracy.
Our projects typically range from 35,000 to 65,000 THB per square meter, depending on specifications and complexity. This positions us in the premium segment β we are not the cheapest option. However, our 97% budget accuracy means the quote you receive is the price you pay, unlike contractors who underbid and escalate. True cost comparison requires comparing final costs, not initial quotes.
Yes, though we strongly recommend involving Archi Studio in the design review process. Many architectural drawings lack the construction detail needed for precise execution. We can convert existing designs to BIM, identify potential issues, and ensure buildability before construction begins. This collaboration typically improves outcomes significantly compared to pure construction-only contracts.
Experience the precision that Ritz-Carlton demands and superyacht owners expect, applied to your private villa.
