When design is only conceived with the legacy of the past.

A lucky, wonderful and unexpected find… Ha Tien Cafe’ Bangkok. Discovering magical places that connect us with design and our passion to continue the history of vintage furniture is a real gift.

Signs of obsession about the past.

Vintage decoration is not understood without the objects that give us back beautiful past moments.

As a hobby, because of their beauty, because of their sentimental value… the vocation of collector courses through our veins. Passion to collect antiques becomes something overwhelming… The need to search, acquire, preserve, and treasure more and more objects that connect us with a past time and where a new piece is always a lucky, wonderful find, that brings with it an unexpected story.

Sensitivity, feelings, and the desire to overcome time. A decoration that looks back, gathering extraordinary finds and sensational stories, and without trying to mend what time has broken, a decoration that makes spaces really fascinating.

Ha Tien Cafe is a space full of everyday images, family roots, and furniture and objects collected over ten years.

A fascinating café on Tha Tien pier turned into a three-storey house that is itself an antique. It seems chaotic and immeasurable; this café is a historical legacy for its antiques and collectibles of invaluable value and beauty.

Use and wear, the nature of time.

Time takes everything. Cracks in the plaster walls, the cracked woods, the notches in the furniture, the wrinkled and frayed textiles… and all those marks that weather and use leave…

Preserving the old traditional structures, both the beams and walls of the building, Ha Tien Café has that charismatic and careless air of the century-old properties that stand up to the passage of time.

This clear beauty of abandoned architecture is mystical, the pillars of an extraordinary design that brings it back to life while showing its greatness.

Balance in the midst of chaos.

The incoherent way of showing the antiques is part of its charm.

A Ma-Toom coffee and a slice of carrot cake… historical frames and images, carpets, period hydraulic mosaics and old flooring. The peaceful nature and fauna, and a wealth of odd furniture. Décor looks to the past to reflect the authentic atmosphere of an old house.

More antiques, please…

Ten years is a long time, but it is never enough. Large and rich collections seem incomplete, since that love for antiques is a lifelong love. For Francisco Segarra to find vintage furniture has always been part of his travels, found one by one, antiques are part of us and our way of understanding design.
