What Families Say
Siranee Phromchai
Sukhumvit, Bangkok
"I joined the reading group uncertain whether I had any family history worth exploring. By the third session I had begun a proper folder of documents my mother had kept in a box for decades. The readings gave me a vocabulary for what I was looking at and the discussion made me want to go further."
Family Heritage Reading Group · April 2025
Thomas Wanichapat
Ekkamai, Bangkok
"We commissioned an Object Stories Visit for my father. He's in his eighties and the house is full of things he's carried from Chiang Rai since the 1970s. Arthit was patient, unhurried, and had a way of drawing out stories my father had never told anyone in the family. The printed catalogue arrived exactly when they said it would."

Natnicha Lertpaisal
Thong Lor, Bangkok
"Our first Family Year Volume arrived in February and I have looked at it more than I expected to. There's something about seeing the year in print — my daughter's essay about starting secondary school, my husband's note about a trip we nearly didn't take — that a phone gallery simply doesn't give you. We've already committed to the 2025 volume."

Apinya Jungsuwadee
Bearing, Bangkok
"I was a bit worried before the reading group that it would feel like a lecture or a classroom. It didn't. Nanthawan has a way of introducing each reading lightly and then stepping back so the group can find its own direction. I left every session with something to think about."

Krit Mahasuwan
Ari, Bangkok
"The Object Stories Visit felt a little odd to arrange — who invites a stranger to walk around their house? — but once Arthit arrived the strangeness disappeared. He was genuinely interested in the objects, not just completing a task. The audio files are excellent. I've shared the catalogue with relatives in Lampang who hadn't heard these stories before."

Pimwadee Boonsri
Sathorn, Bangkok
"Siriporn's design for our 2024 family volume is calm and thoughtful. She absorbed a great deal of material — my grandmother wrote two pages by hand in Thai, my teenage son contributed a four-line note, my brother submitted a photo essay about his garden — and made it feel like a single coherent book. I didn't expect that level of care."

Case Studies
Case Study · Reading Group
Challenge
Three adult siblings wanted to begin organising their family's history but disagreed about what mattered and where to start. Each had different levels of interest and very different ideas about what a family archive should be.
Approach
All three joined the same reading group cohort. The shared readings gave them a common frame of reference and the group sessions — which included families from outside their own — gave them a neutral setting to discuss what they each valued.
Outcome
By the final session the siblings had agreed on a shared list of materials to gather and had commissioned an Object Stories Visit for their parents' home as a follow-up project. Timeline: 12 weeks for the reading group.
"We came in with different expectations and left with a plan we'd all agreed on. I didn't think that was possible." — Wararat Lertwong
Case Study · Object Stories Visit
Challenge
Khun Prasong was in his mid-seventies and had accumulated sixty years of meaningful objects — travel souvenirs, tools from his first business, gifts from his late wife — but had never spoken systematically about any of them with his children.
Approach
A half-day Object Stories Visit was arranged with his daughter present. The interviewer spent 3.5 hours walking through four rooms. Prasong selected 22 objects. Each was recorded with its story; twelve were photographed for the catalogue.
Outcome
The family received 22 audio recordings and a printed 28-page catalogue within 12 days of the visit. His daughter described it as the most useful afternoon they had spent together in years. The catalogue has since been scanned and shared with relatives in three other provinces.
"My father spoke for three and a half hours. I've lived with him for decades and I had never heard most of it." — Daughter of participant
