Some you can touch. Some you can see. Some you can feel. Some you explore.

The Indigo Pearl experience is an encounter with Phuket's collective imagination – a gathering of intriguing details, re-envisioned through imaginative design.

Architecture inspired by Phuket's tin mining past. Decor that evokes a Thai factory of a century ago. A landscape overflowing with surprises: the postmodern transformation of a mature plantation, spiced with modern sculpture and found industrial art. An experience as rare as an indigo pearl. 

Design Concept - Architecture inspired by Phuket's tin mining past. D?cor that evokes a Thai factory of a century ago. Sleekly polished cement floors. Blackened stainless steel laden with brass rivets. Balanced with the softness of raw Thai silk and floral art.

Exposed wooden beams. Punkah fans. Wire-framed mirrors. Smoked glass. Overhead rain baths.

The landscape: a postmodern transformation of a mature plantation, spiced with modern sculpture and found industrial art.

The Indigo Pearl - Silvery blue palms, light blue plumbago (blue jasmine) bushes, the sharp sword-like leaves of mother-in-law's tongue. Blankets of leaves accented with hot pink. Gates of antique iron dotting the landscape at the entrances of pocket gardens, each with their own individual character.
