Bangkok Learning Center

Year : 2019

Type : Learning Center

Location : Charoen Krung Road, Bangkok, Thailand

Bangkok city intends to build a learning center on the land along the Chao Phraya River. So I chose to design this learning center to be the center of knowledge and information about astronomy in particular. In addition to being a modern library in futuristic style. I created a space for activities to supporting learning about space like a planetarium. There are sphere-shaped for national and international symposium lounges that will make you feel like you’re in a space. With the objective of creating a space for education, collaboration and inspiration. The main part of the project consists of a library, a learning center and the administrative office

Astrellar = Ad Astra + Interstellar

Ad Astra literally means "to the stars" that derives from "Per Aspera Ad Astra", means hardship leads to the star and Interstellar means between the stars

Learning Center + Planetarium

United to become a center for learning center in Bangkok about stars and astronomy which will lead people to explore the universe and discover the space that made you feel like living in the galaxy. All of the spaces are connected as if they were on a spaceship. Heading to the Chao Phraya River scenery

Divide the site area into 3 parts that lead to the Chao Phraya River.

Each building is connected in a U-shape to surround the open space in the middle.

The stars will be the guides for you to learning all of the space in here.
