Who We Are
START at Woof Pack Projects is a new creative learning hub located in the heart of Bangkok offering a dynamic pathway for individuals looking to explore the world of art and design.
Founded in collaboration with UK academic partners, START delivers creative education programmes designed to prepare students for international progression. Our approach combines studio practice, critical thinking, and personalised mentorship to support each student’s artistic direction and long-term academic goals.
Our Foundation Diploma in Art & Design is recognised by the University of Greater Manchester (UK), supporting progression to undergraduate study in the creative disciplines.
Based within Woof Pack’s vibrant creative community, we bridge local talent with international opportunity — a place where education and industry breathe the same creative air.
Our Approach
'ideas develop through practice'
Every course unfolds through studio projects, critique, and reflection — the same structure you’d find at leading art and design colleges across the UK.
Students work closely with mentors who balance teaching with active creative practice, ensuring each project stays grounded in the realities of contemporary art and design.
We encourage experimentation, but with intention; independence, but with guidance.
It’s a balance of discipline and discovery that builds both creative confidence and academic readiness.

START × Woof Pack
Our location within Woof Pack places students in direct proximity to the creative industries they study — designers, filmmakers, curators, and brands that share the same address.
It’s not a campus removed from the world, but part of a working creative network.
That constant exchange between study and practice gives START its distinct energy — and its results.
