BANG KRACHAO LEARNING CENTER
INTRODUCTION
This project stems from an effort to create a space dedicated to creativity and knowledge sharing within the Bang Krachao community. This unique community is known for its distinctive lifestyle and culture. The space aims to serve both community members and tourists, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of the local way of life.
By integrating architectural principles with cultural sensitivity, this project aspires to enhance the community’s environment while preserving its unique identity. It represents a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, providing a platform for learning, interaction, and cultural exchange.
BANG KRACHAO
Since the early Rattanakosin period, Bang Krachao has been a traditional Mon community preserving important festivals such as Songkran and the Swan and Centipede Flag Procession. The settlement began in Song Khanong and expanded along Phetchahung Road and Bang Nam Phueng.
The 20-kilometer Chao Phraya River bend at Bang Krachao helps slow saltwater intrusion and traps sediment, contributing to fertile soil. Originally a freshwater swamp forest, it has become fruit orchards and residential areas. The area retains about 2.5 million cubic meters of water, preventing Bangkok flooding.
DESIGN PROCESS
The design process explores the possibilities of architectural design based on a defined grid system. This includes grids for the size of building modules, drainage canals for local farming, classrooms for activities, historical architectural proportions, human scale, and surrounding buildings to prevent overscaling. The design integrates these grids with the golden ratio and mathematical proportions to achieve harmony and balance.
COMMUNITY CENTER
The Bang Krachao Community Center comprises a co-learning space, an exhibition area, and a multi-purpose space suitable for various activities. Based on the study of local behavior and routines, the flexibility of this design allows the center to cater to a wide range of interests and needs within the community, promoting engagement and interaction among residents and visitors, as well as among the residents themselves.
DETAIL ISOMETRIC
This detailed isometric view showcases traditional wooden joints used in gable roof construction. The design honors traditional craftsmanship, ensuring both structural integrity and aesthetic harmony, reflecting the cultural heritage of Bang Krachao while integrating with modern architecture.
RIDGE PLANTING Design Inspiration
The design is inspired by the traditional ridge planting of Bang Krachao, which is a local water management wisdom for agriculture. The size and nature of these ridge plantings are used in the architectural design to create an experience for users that connects them with nature and establishes a unique identity for the building.la nist volorem

THE MONZA CIRCUIT
The Autodromo Nazionale Monza, also known as the Monza Circuit, is one of the most historic tracks on the F1 calendar, spanning 5.793 km (3.600 mi). Located near the Italian city of Monza, north of Milan, this iconic circuit was built in 1922 and stands as one of the earliest purposebuilt motor racing tracks, following the examples of Brooklands and Indianapolis. While it claims to be the oldest racetrack in mainland Europe, this title is occasionally disputed. The Italian Grand Prix, a major event at the Monza Circuit, has been held there since 1949, with the exception of 1980 when the circuit underwent renovation.
THE CIRCUIT AND THEVERTIPORT
In the present day, the advent of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) and the utilization of drones offer new possibilities for transportation. Designing a vertiport at the Monza Circuit represents a forwardthinking approach to enhance transportation infrastructure, enabling efficient and modern access for spectators to watch the races. This project envisions integrating advanced F1 technology with innovative VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft to redefine the way people travel to and from the circuit.
EASA’s study on Urban Air Mobility highlights the broad acceptance of use cases such as air taxis and medical deliveries among EU citizens, indicating that these applications will likely be the first to be implemented. This initiative not only enhances the spectator experience by offering rapid and direct access to the races but also positions the Monza Circuit at the forefront of transportation innovation, bridging the gap between traditional motor racing and the future of urban mobility.
PROJECT INTENTION
The Vertiport at Autodromo Nazionale Monza will be strategically located to include a concrete parking lot for team buses and temporary buildings to support race and pit activities. During races, this area will transform into a vibrant, festive space, inviting spectators to enjoy the dynamic atmosphere and various activities. The Vertiport project embodies the innovative spirit needed to support eVTOLs while serving as an iconic and functional structure. Its design seamlessly integrates with the surrounding landscape and activities, creating a harmonious and engaging environment for people to gather and enjoy. This approach not only enhances transportation infrastructure but also elevates the overall experience at the Monza Circuit, positioning it as a leader in the future of urban mobility.
NEWNESS
The design of the Vertiport incorporates various structural languages that connect and support the building, creating a sculptural element that forms the primary image of the structure. The façade features metal fabric, a rarely seen material that can be changed and maintained for each event, further emphasizing the newness of the design. This innovative approach ensures the Vertiport remains a dynamic and adaptable space, reflecting the cutting-edge nature of both the eVTOL technology and the Monza Circuit itself.cipidendis imaior sae essvendae.
THE CANOPY
The elevated Vertiport on the first floor connects to the parking lot, creating a gathering space that naturally defines the canopy-like area underneath. This well-defined space elevates the hierarchy and creates linkages that connect the circulation node at the intersection with the building and the race track. The structure’s design utilizes advanced materials and construction techniques to ensure stability and durability, while the landscape at the end of the area can also be used as a stand during the race, enhancing the usability and multifunctionality of the space. This thoughtful integration of structural elements and landscape design not only supports the building’s primary function but also enriches the spectator experience, making the Vertiport a central hub of activity and engagement at the Monza Circuit.
STRUCTURE
The design of the Vertiport is inspired by the strength, sleekness, and dynamic form of F1 cars, creating a project that is both memorable and visually striking. This inspiration is reflected in the modern, angular forms that challenge traditional structural concepts, particularly in weight-bearing. The columns and walls are designed to appear separate, emphasizing a sense of lightness and mechanical precision. This design not only adds a contemporary aesthetic but also symbolizes the advanced engineering and innovation inherent in both F1 racing and Urban Air Mobility, making the Vertiport a landmark of modern technology and design.

Its objective is to advance Thai performing arts by blending the heritage of the past with the creative vision of the future. This project seeks to revitalize and bring vibrancy back to historically significant areas that once thrived, creating spaces for artistic expression and the identity of the new generation on the historic grounds of Sala Chalerm Krung and Charoen Krung Road. By integrating historical values with contemporary innovation, the theater aspires to become a landmark for cultural enrichment and community engagementvolenist la nist volorem int reperes cipidendis imaior sae essvendae sinctet.
SITE
Situated in the Phra Nakhon district, Chalerm Nakhon Theater is strategically positioned along an imaginary line connecting significant historical and cultural landmarks such as the Giant Swing, Wat Suthat Thepwararam, and Sala Chalerm Krung Royal Theatre. This area has a rich history, having been a royal palace, a market, and a venue for diverse performances that challenged traditional norms. Thus, the location symbolizes openness and potential for various forms of development.
CONNECTING
The idea of “connecting-เชื่อม” is realized through the design of three socially significant areas. First, the Khlong Lod Wat Ratchabophit area, identified for its potential, is transformed into a public space along the canal, lined with preserved heritage buildings. This creates a pleasant, walkable atmosphere with retail spaces and cafés that encourage foot traffic, seamlessly integrating seating areas into the architectural landscape. Next, the Charoen Krung Road area is designed as a linear plaza featuring seating courts and a performing stair
INVITING
The theme of “inviting-เชิญ” extends beyond merely being an audience member. The design includes a public gallery, performing arts library, terrace studio, and rooftop area, all crafted to attract and engage the public. These spaces are characterized by large glass facades, open terraces, and welcoming entrances that blur the lines between indoor and outdoor environments, emphasizing openness and accessibility.
OBSERVING
The theme of “observing-ชม” transforms the theater into a vantage point to observe the city. The rooftop area, featuring a restaurant and sky bar, offers panoramic views of Bangkok’s skyline with Wat Suthat as a stunning backdrop. The architectural design incorporates green roofs and sustainable materials, creating an eco-friendly environment that enhances the overall aesthetic. This dual-purpose design not only provides a new perspective for tourists but also establishes the theater as a city landmark, offering unique views and insights into Bangkok’s urban landscape.
SFROM CHALERMKRUNG TO CHALERMNAKHON. A SIGNIFICANT ASPECT OF THE PROJECT IS ITS LOCATION OPPOSITE THE NATIONAL THEATER, KNOWN AS CHALERMKRUNG, WHICH IS CURRENTLY A PREMIER VENUE FOR KHON PERFORMANCES, AN IMPORTANT TRADITIONAL THAI ART FORM. CHALERMKRUNG SYMBOLIZES THE HISTORICAL GRANDEUR OF THE PERFORMING ARTS IN THE OLD “KRUNG”.

LINEAR PLAZA
Linear Plaza along Charoen Krung Road: A linear plaza with seating courts and a performing stair connecting the underground and ground levels is designed to provide shade and comfort for pedestrians, creating a welcoming urban space.
Charoen Krung Road is a significant cultural artery in Thailand, rich with historical stories. In this project, we emphasize enhancing pedestrian usability, transforming it into a vibrant walking street. Our analysis focuses on two main objectives to make the road more pedestrianfriendly:
Creating Shade: Given Bangkok’s hot climate and strong sunlight, providing shade is essential. This can be achieved through street facades and planting trees, making the area more comfortable for walking.
Adding Dynamic Elements: To prevent monotony along the path, we introduce varied levels with sunken courts and stairs, as well as open plazas to encourage gatherings and social interactions.
These solutions aim to make Charoen Krung Road an inviting and engaging pedestrian corridor.
Visitors enter through a street-level urban entry marked by a gold marquee, ascending a feature stair with views of Sala Chalermkrung and Wat Suthat. The gold color reflects the area’s historical association with the gold industry, while the wooden lobby ceiling adds warmth, complemented by lighting that mimics sunlight reflecting off nearby temples.la nist volorem int reperes cipidendis imaior sae essvendae.
PUBLIC FUNCTION
The theater invites not only audiences but also art lovers through public galleries, a performing arts library, terrace studios, and a rooftop area. Public Gallery: Located on the third floor, the foyer includes a walkway showcasing the site’s history and the evolution of Thai performing arts. This space offers panoramic views of the surrounding landmarks, including the Grand Palace and Wat Suthat. Performing Arts Library: A dedicated library houses books, videos, and other resources on performing arts, offering study rooms and computers for viewing archival materials. Studios: Back of house includes rehearsal spaces for music, dance, and acting, with a lobby area fostering interaction between amateur and professional performers.
Chalerm Nakhon Theater is a visionary project aimed at revitalizing the heart of Bangkok’s old city, transforming it into a vibrant center for performing arts. Designed to host a wide range of contemporary and traditional performances, this theater represents a new Thai identity that embraces modernity and appeals to the younger generation. The project is a collaboration between the Crown Property Bureau and the Ministry of Culture, intending to create a venue that not only reflects the evolving Thai identity but also supports the development of performing arts in Thailand.
URBAN SHED 6
PROJECT INFO
Type : Infrastructure location : Bangkok, Thailand
Area : 12,000 SQ.M.
PROBLEM
In Thailand, there are over 21,452,050 registered motorcycles, a number expected to rise with business models like Grab. Bangkok alone has nearly 200,000 motorcycle taxi drivers, each making 20 to 30 trips daily. Annually, the country sees an average of 34,000 motorcycle-related accidents, with about 50% proving fatal, translating to roughly 15,000 deaths each year.
During the monsoon season, it’s common to see motorcycle drivers and passengers seeking refuge under tollways. However, these shelters offer minimal protection against the torrential rain and flooding. The limited space under tollways also increases the risk of collisions with other vehicles.
In a city where motorcycles are the lifeblood of transportation, the lack of dedicated infrastructure for them is a significant issue. A common and highly complained-about problem is motorcycles encroaching on public spaces, such as sidewalks and roads. Motorcycle taxi stands often take up nearly half of the sidewalk space, and during the delivery boom, large groups of delivery motorcycles waiting for orders can occupy an entire lane of the road. These issues need to be addressed to create a harmonious relationship among all road users, including pedestrians, motorcycle riders, and street vendors. This consideration influences where we can situate our “rest areas.” Sidewalks are already overcrowded, and renting shophouses is not suitable.
When examining the map of Bangkok, I found an intriguing area for our project: the network of gray lines representing the extensive underpass areas beneath the city’s highways. These spaces, spanning over 600 rai (approximately 240 acres), cut through many areas and connect residential zones, workplaces, and public transit routes. They are easily accessible to both pedestrians and motorcyclists. By placing our project at various nodes under these highways across Bangkok, we can create spaces that positively impact the lives of everyone on the road.
“A shed at the edge of a field” amidst the hustle and bustle of traffic and familiar space that brings a sense
REST AREA UNDER THE TOLLWAY - “URBAN SHED”
The Urban Shed is a multi-functional space designed to provide refuge and comfort for motorcycle drivers and passengers
A space that functions as an umbrella, offering a respite from the rain and sun.
A space that serves as a bench, providing an area to sit and rest.

CROSS-SECTION DESIGN
The cross-section illustrates the motorcycle parking area on the ground floor and the waiting and resting area on the upper floor. The design features a gabled roof with extended eaves to provide protection from the sun and wind. This is particularly important as Thailand is located in a tropical monsoon climate zone, experiencing heavy rainfall and strong monsoon winds. The gabled roof not only offers practical weather protection but also contributes to the overall aesthetic, blending functionality with architectural elegance.
LONGITUDINAL-SECTION DESIGN
The longitudinal section illustrates the multi-level design of the project. The ground floor parking area is elevated to accommodate the varying flood heights of different areas. The upper floor, designated as the waiting and resting area, features split levels, allowing users to keep an eye on their motorcycles. This thoughtful design ensures both practical functionality and user convenience, adapting to local environmental conditions while providing a secure and comfortable resting space.
As the rain begins to fall, the ambiance often turns somber. However, the essence of the “Urban Shed” project draws its inspiration from the hues of sunrise witnessed in rural harvest sites, symbolizing the dawn’s rejuvenation.
The objective of this project is to introduce a dedicated rest area for motorcycle drivers and passengers in Bangkok, where motorcycles are a primary mode of transportation. Unlike cars, motorcycles lack protective covers, making them particularly vulnerable during the unpredictable monsoon season. With the elevated risk of accidents in such conditions, our Urban Shed is designed to be a safe haven for riders, ensuring their safety amidst sudden rainstorms.
COLOUR SELECTION
As the rain begins to fall, the ambiance often turns somber. However, the essence of the “URBAN SHED” project draws its inspiration from the hues of sunrise witnessed in rural harvest sites, symbolizing the dawn’s rejuvenation.
