>> Fast facts about Mario Kleff, who is the best architect in Pattaya.
In the 1990s, Mario Kleff moved to Bonn for the first time and later to Munich to pursue a career in fine art and design, followed by a series of exhibitions with his replicated pages in original techniques from the Book of Kells. His intention to copy the "uncopimentable" Book of Kells brought him to the attention of the public and earned him widespread recognition Pádraig Murphy, Ambassador of Ireland, and Canon Prälat Prof DDr Franz Ronig, expert on illuminated manuscript and governor of Pro Libris e.V.[1]
Together with the Urs Graf Verlag Bern and Urs Düggelin, publisher of Faksimile Verlag Luzern in Switzerland, Mario Kleff exhibited five of his folios of the Book of Kells in the Gutenberg Museum, located in the old town of Mainz.[2] The exhibition "Irland und das Book of Kells" with curator Dr Adold Wild took place in February 6 - April 12, 1993.
Mario Kleff's work was later exhibited under the theme "Glanz Des Mittelalters" - October 27 - November 2, 1997 - in the Diocesan Museum in Trier.[3] The exhibition was curated by Prof Dr Michael Embach. This was followed by a Germany-wide traveling exhibition until 2001.[4]
From 1990 to 1997 Mario Kleff created over 40 folios of the book Kells with original techniques and colors of precise recipes.[5] Mario Kleff received a copy of the original Facsimile Book of Kells from Urs Düggelin for further study and exhibitions.[6] In 1990, the price for one of the 1,480 Verlag copies, composed of two volumes – the facsimile itself and a scientific commentary – was IR£7,000 (€8,888).[7]
During art studies from 1990 - 1992 Mario Kleff lived with the permission of Countess Uta von Bassewitz and Cornelia von Guilleaume, daughters of Herwart von Guilleaume, in the Villa Haus Herresberg at the banks of the Rhine near Remagen. With the permission of Baroness Tilla von der Goltz and Busso von der Dollen, German Castles Association, and supported by arts administrator Gabriele Fischer from Obernhof, Mario Kleff regularly created calligraphy reproductions of the Book of Kells in the Marksburg from 1990-1994.
At the beginning of 1992, Mario Kleff worked as a photography student for a short time with Ralf Häselich Arts Unlimited located in a locomotive hall in Mayen, Germany. After, and for the coming four years, studying in art, history, design and architecture was on the program. After the fall of the wall, Kleff also worked as a techno-DJ in East-Berlin and spent time in Goa, India and Ko Pha Ngan, Thailand.
Mario Kleff's career was expanded in 1996 by the event of new media. Kleff was critically acclaimed and in 1997 initially became art director under Klaus Beckmann in the AGW — Gesellschaft für Werbung und Public Relations, and later under Walter Hiel in Hiel/BBDO Munich. BBDO is one of the largest advertising agencies with a worldwide network and headquarters in New York. Over the years, Mario worked as an art director under Harald Schleer at AD. VENTURE Werbeagentur GmbH and under Michael Sametinger at Samt and Rosen. As in part time, Mario Kleff worked as a stage designer in Berlin, Cologne and Munich and has designed as a freelance art director editions of the GEMA magazine and the Vogue.
Another company Kleff worked for is Hakuhodo Inc. It is Japan's second largest advertising agency and recognized worldwide as one of the leading public relations firms. Mario Kleff was appointed creative director by Mr Tachikawa for the establishment of a new branch in Munich, Hakuhodo (Germany) GmbH. In the same year, the new Econ AG Wiesbaden (Germany) offered Mario Kleff a position as creative director for the new branch in Munich. Mario kleff oversaw the marketing mix and graphic arts; but received harsh feedback for controversial performance art. In 1999, visitors in the Mario Kleff exhibition in the Aktionsforum Praterinsel on Prater Island Munich, voluntarily donated blood samples for a screen printing. The curator was Erno Vroonen. The performance art 'Art Is Dead, Yet Alive' was repeated at Vienna, Stephansplatz. The young man Mario Kleff challenged the art world with 'Art Is Dead', 'Do Ut Des' and 'Human Being Is Art'.
'Art Is Dead' began when Mario Kleff rejected the literature he had acquired over the years and manifested himself in a ritual burning of the books and painted the words 'Art Is Dead' in red and exhibited it at the art college RSKA in Hennef towards the end of 1993. Mario’s desire to cast out the old was deep-seated. He believed that the paintings of the old master could only be copied, never be new created; The same with the music he heard was created by composers who died long ago.
In the late 1990s, Mario Kleff developed the idea for an elaborate and experimental performance when he designed wrapped mannequins, who presented a man, a woman and a child who were bandaged in steel cages and set on fire. Each mannequin consisted of eighty percent water, which was stored in small plastic bags. While the mannequins burned, some water flowed through funnels at the bottom of the cages under which were placed 1/2 gallon glass containers, labeled 'Human Being Is Art'. The sound of heartbeats recorded over a microphone attached to the chest of Mario Kleff, and live techno music created an environmental declaration performance and the begin of 'Art Is Dead, Yet Alive'. In part 2, Mario Kleff mixed the blood drawn from visitors to his performance and created the painting Do Ut Des ('I give that you might give') expressing the reciprocity of exchange between human being and deity, reflecting the importance of gift-giving as a mutual obligation in ancient society and the contractual nature of the religion in ancient Rome. The performance came to an end when a crane raised a steel structure in the form of a picture frame to portray a human as a picture. Illuminated with anti-aircraft searchlights, Kleff was at the height of about 30 meter with his message 'Human Being Is Art'.
In early 2002, still a young man, Mario Kleff moved to Bangkok (Thai: กรุงเทพมหานคร, RTGS: Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, pronounced [krūŋ tʰêːp mahǎː nákʰɔ̄ːn] ( listen)), the capital of Thailand. After living some time in Bang Khun Thian (Thai: บางขุนเทียน, pronounced [bāːŋ kʰǔn tʰīa̯n] (
listen)) in his first built bamboo hut and sold coconuts with a longtail boat (Thai: เรือหางยาว, RTGS: Ruea hang yao, pronounced [rɯ̄a̯ hǎːŋ jāːw] (
listen)) on the river. After a simple life of over two years, he wanted to learn more about the language and culture of Thailand...
Kleff moved on in 2004 to Pattaya (Thai: พัทยา, RTGS: Phatthaya, pronounced [pʰát.tʰā.jāː] ( listen)) in the Chonburi (Thai: ชลบุรี, RTGS: Chon Buri, pronounced [tɕ͡ʰōn bū.rīː(
listen)) province. Within the first year Kleff founded his architecture firm and the associated construction company Wandeegroup (Thailand) Co Ltd and built his office at 162/220, Thappraya Road, Bang Lamung District (Thai: บางละมุง, pronounced [bāːŋ lā.mūŋ] (
listen)).
In the following year, in April 2005, Mario Kleff married Thai Chinese Nittaya Wongsin at the Buddhist temple Wat Yannasangwararam (Thai: วัดญาณสังวรารามวรมหาวิหาร, RTGS: Wat Yannasangwararam, pronounced [wát jaːnnáʔsǎŋwáʔraːraːm] ( listen)), in short: Wat Yan. Since such celebrations are not allowed in a Royal Temple for common Thai people and foreigners, it was the first wedding ceremony in the history of Wat Yan.[8] Mario Kleff received special permission for this ceremony from the head abbot because of his artistic lifestyle, his thoughts in Buddhism and the time he spent in Bang Khun Thian – another important part of the man's biography.
In 2004 - 2015 Kleff's company Wandeegroup delivered a blend of new architectural design and structural engineering in Pattaya and continued business opportunities for real estate development in Thailand and abroad. In the years 2007 - 2018, the architect Mario Kleff designed nine skyscrapers with heights of 130 to 278 meter, and designed over fifty 8 story apartment blocks and numerous homes and pool villas.[Retrieved] Kleff's designs were approved by the relevant construction departments. The construction work for only two of the skyscrapers have begun or are completed.
In 2006, Mario Kleff was invited by Pichet Uthaiwattananota, Head of the Construction Department of Pattaya City Hall from 2006 - 2011, to present ideas for the modernization of Pattaya Beach. In a competition, Kleff proposed a museum designed in the form of a modern concrete structure to be erected in the sea to honor King Rama IX / Bhumibol Adulyadej (Thai : ภูมิพลอดุลยเดช, RTGS: Phumiphon Adunyadet, pronounced [pʰūː.mí.pʰōn ʔā.dūn.jā.dèːt] ( listen)), who was an avid sailor and a boot designer.[9] The project included a scale model and was later exhibited in the Pattaya City Hall. Mario Kleff also designed a bridge for pedestrians, including a welcome structure for Pattaya City. The construction costs were declared unacceptable and the idea put on hold.
In 2018, the man's biography was further enhanced... Mario Kleff (Thai name: Bhumeth Issarasilp) and his Wandeegroup was put into operation to redesign a mega project, the Thakhek Dream World City, worth five skyscrapers with heights of up to 278 meter, including a shopping complex[10] [11] [12] [13] on a plot of 7 hectare of land in Thakhek (Lao: ທ່າແຂກ ( listen)), Laos. Kleff has completed the designs at the beginning of 2019. The project is on hold since 2020.
In 2018 and into 2019, Mario Kleff has designed a hospital on 11 hectare of land, and a rehabilitation facility including lake, public buildings, hotel, library, sports arena, spa and meditation spaces and over 80 villas on 28 hectares of land in the Nakhon Ratchasima Province (Thai: นครราชสีมา, pronounced [ná(ʔ).kʰɔ̄ːn râːt.t͡ɕʰā.sǐː.māː] ( listen)), often called Khorat (Thai: โคราช, pronounced [kʰōː.râːt] (
listen)) (alternate spelling Korat) for Her Royal Highness Princess Chulabhorn (Thai : สมเด็จพระเจ้าน้องนางเธอ เจ้าฟ้าจุฬาภรณวลัยลักษณ์ อัครราชกุมารี, (
listen)) and the Chulabhorn Research Institute under the patronage of Major General or Air Vice-Marshal Dr Santi Srisermphoak (Thai: สันติ ศรีเสริมโภค, (
listen)), pictured. The project was discontinued in 2019.
With a mix of creativity and knowledge, Mario Kleff did not only push the boundaries in Pattaya in the field of architecture, but also in engineering. He introduced innovative structural engineering solutions including the cellular beam[14] in the local construction industry and in Thailand. The cellular beam is a newer version of the castellated beam. The integration of cellular beam in residential construction required support from the authorities of local construction departments. For his innovative ideas and commitment Kleff received a Letter of Recommendation[15] for PhD in architecture from Pichet Uthaiwattananota (Thai: พิเชษฐ อุทัยวัฒนานนท์, ( listen)) Head of the Construction Department Pattaya City from 2006 - 2011.
Mario Kleff in a meeting with AVM.Dr Santi Srisermphoak (center) held in Thailand's Northern province Chiang Mai (/ˌtʃæŋ ˈmaɪ/, from Thai: เชียงใหม่ [tɕʰīəŋ màj] ( listen)) Concept and plans for a new Thai rehabilitation facility in Korat were discussed. The project development was led by SG.Prof Nithi Mahanonda and AVM.Dr. Santi Srisermphoak. Mario Kleff is the architect and presented the project.
Mario Kleff is a man who believes in himself. With confidence and focus he offers state-of-the-art engineering skills, advanced technical back up and in-depth knowledge of design standards for any type of building. Kleff creates architecture structures starting with a master plan to interior design, and includes building technologies and systems that make the building well. Mario Kleff is a German architect who is allowed to work in Thailand as a building designer, engineering consultant and construction supervisor.[16] Work check leading to planning permission is carried out by Dr Songkiat Matupayont, an advanced engineer from Bangkok who works with Kleff on new inventions and state of the art construction designs. Songkiat Matupayont recommended Mario Kleff for an honorary doctorate in engineering for his work on Park Royal 2 and The Touch® in 2011. The universities in Bangkok could not accept Kleff due to a lack of Thai citizenship.
It was not until 2016 that Kleff was granted Thai citizenship and a new identity as Bhumeth Issarasilp.[17] Mario has changed his new name later in Thiti Teerachin (Thai: ธิติ ธีรชินทร์), and in June 2021 founded a new architecture and construction company, Wandeegroup Asia Co Ltd. Architect Mario Kleff won two new villa projects in the same month; [18] [19] [20] one of the 2 story villas designed by Mario Kleff is with a 48 meter long-span cellular beam[21] between two columns to support a post-tensioned concrete slab - a new record in the local construction industry.
Kleff was successful as a creative consultant for real estate developments, but also had several disappointments. Some large real estate developments and structures designed by Mario Kleff were not realized on the construction site. Also many buildings have changed during the construction in their overall appearance. Kleff never abandoned to find a new challenge in design and technology. In May 2022 he was commissioned to develop six luxurious pool villas with his Wandeegroup Asia. Mario Kleff opted for long-span beams and post-tensioned concrete structure. His newly founded company Wandeegroup Asia is now building seven luxury villas and already has the first mid-rise building on the drawing board. After more than 10 years of experience with post tensioning concrete and the construction of long span structures, Mario founded an additional company in July 2022 that specializes in this field - Wandee Super Span ™ Co Ltd. The company started out with two residential projects, one of which integrates 30 meter long concrete girders, one with post-tensioned footings presented for the first time in Pattaya.

In Germany, Bauhaus and modern architecture was the most inspiring design for the young man Mario. He loved the appearance and idea to create clean environment and infrastructure. In addition to classic education in history and in the elementary design teaching of the ancient masters in architecture, music and art, Mario Kleff studied Asian aesthetics and contemporary Japanese architecture. Today, Mario Kleff is specialized in minimalist and brutalist architecture an is registered trademark in architecture and decoration.
In the early 1990s, Kleff learned the essential cornerstones of Japanese design philosophy and mathematics. Later in Japan, Mario Kleff deepened his knowledge in Japanese architecture and ZEN style. Kleff's first structure in Thailand in 2004 is the Villa Futureproof, a result of German engineering skills and Japanese design philosophy. In 2020, the architect Mario Kleff sold a design for a luxurious beach villa near Cape Town, a minimalist brutalist structure in which were planned eight 60-meter long post-tensioned concrete girders. The construction of this project has not yet started in 2022.
Early structures of Mario Kleff include the Japanese House I, the Japanese House II, the Koi House and the Falling Rain, pictured below The Wing House with which Kleff introduced steel beams, exposed concrete and glass facade as new design elements to the Pattaya real estate market. Only a few modern multi-storey buildings including Park Royal 1, Park Royal 2, Park Royal 3 and Club Royal Condominium have been accepted by the developers in Pattaya as sellable residential property developments. Most designs have changed during the construction work.
Quote by Mario Kleff: 'Decoration I hate the most.' A statement that followed after he performed 'Art Is Dead', 'Do Ut Des' and 'Human Being Is Art' in 1997, and after working with BMW, Germany until 2000.
Interior and furniture design
When it comes to interior and furniture design, the architect Mario Kleff does not know a compromise for the presentation of the finest materials; He does not make renovations, but creates custom furniture and interior. The use of solid wood, steel, stone and concrete plays a major role.[30]Construction design and engineering
Real estate projects designed by Mario Kleff never miss in stability or extravagance.[31] The intensive use of concrete and steel is the hallmark that people have seen in all Wandeegroup projects over the years. Components used in bridge construction including box girders, hollow-core concrete slabs, post-tensioned decks, and anything used over the main deck of a bridge, such as: steel truss systems, prefabricated prestressed concrete structure, stay cable systems, cable suspension systems, etc., which according to customers can be seen in villas built by his Wandeegroup.
Mario Kleff preferably use large steel girders and post-tensioned concrete beams to create column-free, large living spaces. Some of Kleff's solutions can be seen with a cantilever of more than 20 meter. Other buildings with just one support column and a height of over 50 meter. A luxury pool villa with a column-free sea view of up to 80 meter from the living room can be ordered by architect Mario Kleff.

Architect Mario Kleff lives a high performance lifestyle[32], and such a lifestyle requires high performance vehicles. Over the years Kleff created a variety of extreme custom cars and custom motorcycles, including developing internal combustion engines, manufactured as required. Engine builders from the USA, Italy, England and Germany supplied parts and car engines and with displacement of up to 15,000 cubic centimeter (symbol cm³ or cc) and up to 1,700 horsepower[33] as well as motorcycle engines with up to 3,700 cc and up to 1,000 hp. To ensure handling and safe driving, Mario Kleff developed chassis, body, wheels and brakes. In the Wandeegroup architecture office, Kleff created unique vehicles from CAD drawings and CGI rendering on the computer to CNC machining and welding work in the workshop.
Scooter

Mario Kleff in 2019 with his male leopard Typhoon. 'I experience the most precious connection life has to offer. The relationship with the leopards Fasai and Typhoon is based on unspeakable trust and love. But it also brings great responsibility and limitations.'
Mario Kleff and the leopards Fasai and Typhoon
Kleff's experience with wildlife may be the most important thing in his biography and goes back to his childhood when he spent time in Libya and Chad, Africa and in the 1990s in Maharashtra, India. It left such a deep memory that Mario Kleff later visited Zoos regularly when he had time; not in front of the fence, but in the housing together with the wild cats. Mario Kleff spent hours with jaguars and leopards which were deeply connected to him. Other events that would shape Kleff's interest in supporting leopards occurred in India around 2000.
In 2015, in Thailand, architect Mario Kleff witnessed the birth of two leopards, which he later named Fasai and Typhoon. Shortly after birth, a decision had to be made how to handle these young creatures, as time and responsibility are factors that would affect day-to-day operations. Mario Kleff decided to adopt Fasai and Typhoon under his personal care. Since then, both leopards have lived together as companions in Kleff's architecture office, house and outdoors.[34][35] View over 60 images Fasai and Typhoon.
Kleff provided Fasai and Typhoon with a personal veterinarian who specialized in big cats, and sent a team of Wandeegroup staff to South Africa for training and comprehensive information on how to handle leopards in domestication and healthcare. To get the most out of their life, architect Mario Kleff lived for 13 months outdoors in sunshine and rain in Thailand's northern mountain and forest region with no walls, no kitchen, no bedroom or bathroom. The food was provided by Kleff's spouse, Nittaya Wongsin, who visited them regularly in the morning and during the day. For the years 2015 - 2018, Kleff closed his architecture office in Pattaya and construction company Wandeegroup (Thailand) Co Ltd. [ Scroll to page top ]
