Hi, I’m Aom. I’m glad you’re here.

For over 17 years, I’ve been designing spaces. Today, I also design better ways to work and live. Here is how I got here.

01

The Architect Years

I began my career as an architect, putting my skills into the profession I had chosen and loved. After graduating with First-Class Honors, I spent my early years working in Thailand and later at leading firms in Singapore.

I loved the craft, the details, and the process of bringing meaningful spaces to life.

02

The Turning Point

But everything shifted when I became a mother to my two boys. I quickly realized that the way I was working left too little space and time for my family.

I made a big decision: to open my own architecture and interior design studio, HUES Development, in Chiang Mai, while caring for my family in Singapore. I hoped this would give me more say over how I spent my time.

03

The Hard Truth About Running a Business

Running a business taught me how much I hadn’t learned. Design knowledge was only one part of what it took to keep a business going.

Managing clients, marketing, and a team in Chiang Mai while flying back to Singapore pushed me to the edge. I was working constantly, and the “free time” I had hoped for was vanishing.

04

From Overwhelm to Systems

Over the past eight years, I’ve been working towards a balance between work, income, and family. I started exploring digital tools, AI, and structured workflows. I had to build “systems” just to survive the juggle.

And that is why I created TAMNANKA. I want to share what I’ve learned so that other creatives have more ways to keep doing the work they love. I take the workflows I build for myself, improve them through real work, and turn them into products that can help you build a way of working that actually fits your life.
