Yes, but I'm not sure if it's the equivalent of SB Design Center. I never made it that far. Looking at the not so impressive exterior of the building from TESCO, I didn't feel confident that I would be rewarded if I walked all the way to the Design Center. But looks are deceiving. I think I will pay a visit to the round.
I'm quite sianz of Index Living Mall. Before I discovered the back lane from Index to Harbor, I had to walk along the side of Sukhumvit Road under the hot sun after alighting at end of Klang. That journey was the most punishing.
I am actually at Thappraya, not inside Jomtien, at the foot of Pratumnak Hill.

Yes. I know. But its not standard tatami size. its Thai made and thinner. I used to have a few of these. Used as matteress for visitors.BTW, if you know where to find this Thai made "tatami" in Pattaya, please let me know
.
I found one at Isetan Bangkok, but it costs an arm and a leg.
The shop have no name. Its a big shop behind Big C Pattaya North Aka Central Marina. Or if you know Differ Pub, its just beside Differ Pub. The shop sells all kind of stuff but mainly on kitchen ware and dining ware. Also have lots of traditional Thai furniture and decorations on the second floor.

The white baht bus along Sukumvit Road. The route is super long. About 25 Km from Naklua to Sattahip. It actually terminate before Sattahip Kor Mor 1 aka KM1. A very important baht bus as a lot of residents used this route to commute to and fro Pattaya. Not many people like to stay inside Pattaya. The Russkies staying around Embassador City (Mimosa) are also the biggest user of this route.

Thats the place. Its hard to miss. The front of the shop has many flower pots, artificial water fall, Japanese stone lantern, porcelain and clay stuff.Hosay liao lah ! I asked so many locals, and none of them could point me to a local establishment.
Ok, now I will explain how to find your stuff. Once you enter from the main front entrance. on the right is glassware and on the left is porcelain ware. Continue to walk inside. You will pass by plasticware and handtools section. Continue to walk until the plasticware and stainless steel kitchenware.
There is a staircase. Go up thr staircase. Once on thre second floor, turn right and walk towards the end. The thing you are looking is around there.
The whole place is very big and quite dusty but the things are not used goods. They are brand new. If you need to wash your hand, there is a water basin near the cashier (near entrance) on the first floor.
Hope this helps.

Not paiseh to admit. Actually I also earn roughly this amount of income and much much unstable. Some months, I might get 15,000 - 18,000 baht. Some months, I get 3000 or 4000 baht, not enough even to pay rent. most month live hand to mouth, around 10,000-12,000.
Luckily got friends and neighbours help each other. Be frank, no matter how bad it gets, never miss my nightly Changs or Leos or 285s or Hong Thongs or Lao Khao (Most jialat time).
Used to such lifestyle already. Sabai sabai. Dont worry too much. One thing for sure, such lifestyle not possible in SG.
