Thailand registered architecture firms (2024)
~3,500
Approximately 3,500 architecture firms are registered with the Architect Council of Thailand (ACT, the regulatory body under the Architect Act B.E. 2543/2000) as of end-2024, the majority sole-practitioner or boutique 2-10 person studios. The top-20 large firms (A49, P49, Plan Architect, Architects 49, dwp Thailand, Habita Architects, etc.) account for roughly 30-35% of professional fee revenue; the long tail of mid-tier and boutique firms competes on residential, hotel, and specialist commissions. The architecture services market is structurally smaller than engineering EPC because Thai building procurement bundles design-build under EPC contractors for cost reasons.
