Yothaka is the pioneer of using water hyacinth to make furniture in Thailand’s furniture manufacturing industry, and it remains a notable hand-crafted maker since it was established in 1989.
For more than three decades, the company has worked closely with the local community to design and create fine hand-made water hyacinth and rattan furniture as well as other home accessories such as straw boxes, basketry, stationery, etc.
To maintain an outstanding brand and remain a leader in the field of high-quality industrial crafts, Yothaka constantly restructures its collections and designs new models every year. As a result, the company now offers a wide range of in-house designed furniture and accessories that creatively combine modern lifestyle concepts with unique Thai wisdom and character.
It can be said that Yothaka is unique and different from other competitors because of its original design, using more than 70% of domestic materials, including a variety of environmentally friendly items and a large collection of design works.
Yothaka is also well accepted as a contemporary furniture designer with heritage DNA. Meanwhile,”Khun Rak”, Suwan Kongkhunthian, the founder of Yothaka is remarkably acknowledged as the design master of Thailand. His works always inspire new designers of later generations.
Under a strong identity with quality, creativity, a contemporary spirit and consistent hard work, Yothaka promises to open the doors for the world to experience the greatness of Thai furniture. Meanwhile, the brand continues to forge ahead, developing new design skills along with the adoption of local traditional handicrafts.
