Does public law control the detailed design, appearance and method of construction of any new building?
Yes, the Building Control Act B.E. 2522 controls the layout of the building such as the setback requirements and there are some local regulations issued pursuant to the Building Control Act B.E. 2522 that apply to certain areas, such as Samui Island, that mandate that the design of the roof of the building must be in accordance with its natural surroundings.
