Prof. Dr. Pinyo Suwankiri was born in 1937 in Songkhla, Thailand.
Already when he was a child he was interested in painting and carving and created decorations for various festive occasions. His carvings were used to decorate local temples, monks' residences and schools.[1] Pinyo got his primary school education in his home province. When it was time for high school he moved over to Bangkok where he was tutored by a senior at a temple in order to prepare him for the university entrance exam. As a result of his efforts he was accepted into the Faculty of Architecture at Chulalongkorn University. He graduated from Chulalongkorn University in 1964.
After his graduation Pinyo applied for a teaching position at his faculty in order to teach Thai Architecture. Already during the early stage of his lecturer career at Chulalongkorn University Pinyo developed a new teaching method that quickly became and still is the standard for teaching Thai Architecture there and internationally.[2]
In 1972 Pinyo decided to continue his own education and started a Master’s degree at the School of Architecture at University of Pennsylvania. Nine months later he successfully finished his studies and returned to teach again at his home university as the specialist for Thai Architecture.[3]
