Saowaluk Korsakwattana crafts paper in the form of the deities Guan Yin and Ganesha at Wat Duangdee, and invites visitors to perform the Chinese fortune telling practice known as siem see.

 

The second design week showcases plenty of interesting ideas

 

A POPSICLE stick that can tell your fortune, a lounge chair inspired by the traditional Thai sweet khanom sai sai and a 90-minute, four-hand massage treatment choreographed to specially composed Lanna music.

 

These are just some of the 130 creative ideas currently on show at the second edition of Chiang Mai Design Week. Held biannually, the event showcases the northern capital as a creative city, one with enormous potential for the integration of cultural identities and craftsmanship with new technology and innovative business models.
