ABSTRACT

This landscape project for community in floodplain, located in Bangkien Choomsang Nakonsawan, maintains under the conditions of changes and dynamics between Yom river and Nan River from the Northern part of Thailand in flood season.

The water tremendously influences human and several lives in Bang Kien. When the water starts to overflow and flood  into agriculture area  it has caused a huge damage to the rice field due to lack of relation with river dynamic from human. Moreover, drought  affected by the mismanagement of water in the dry season.

Therefore, this project raises a  question on how lives in floodplain are going on considering on both the dwellers and the environment. Thus, its main focus is to make flood as beneficial for human living and resilient.  from over-viewing the different analysis scale begin with watershed area to the diverse community.

This project focuses on how to manage water and life in floodplain by adapting the idea of Polder system in Netherlands and Kan-hud suan (ditch and dike system) in Lower Chao-praya river, Thailand by turning  perspective of flood into wealth for human  providing flood control in flood season and  to leak the water in floodable area  to collect water in dry season as well as canal restoration , re-organise residential areas and agriculture fields for people and ecosystem (native fish and plant) that support human life .
