Bring Vibrancy and Friendliness to the City at the One Bangkok Pavilion

It would be great if art could become an integral part of people’s daily lives on a broad scale, helping to add color, spark ideas, and elevate quality of life, thereby bringing about lasting physical and spiritual change to the city.

Recognizing the importance of art and design to the city, One Bangkok has joined hands with Bangkok Design Week to present the One Bangkok Pavilion in front of the Grand Postal Building on Charoenkrung Road. The pavilion aims to communicate this essential message to everyone.

Enriching the City for a Better Life

The pavilion’s design, reminiscent of a castle, is created by Supermachine Studio, which has previously crafted dynamic and unique spaces for festivals. The design draws inspiration from the wooden block toy, symbolizing the diverse geometric shapes coming together, much like the collaboration and unity of all parties involved in enhancing and beautifying the city.

Additionally, the pavilion offers a multimedia experience, with new-generation agencies Kids Bloom and Yimsamer creating immersive digital art that transforms the playful hopscotch concept into a jumping game on an interactive screen. People of all ages can join in and explore this pavilion.

Experience Art through Creative Activities

The power of creative thinking is a crucial factor in driving the city forward. Bangkok Design Week has carefully selected 11 programs in arts, culture, and music, catering to diverse needs and presenting them as models of integrating art and culture into everyday life. If you’re interested in any of the activities, be sure to mark the date and time on your calendars to not miss out on the fun awaiting you! Some examples of the activities include:

– Live painting by BIGDEL and MRKREME, two street art artists from the Bridge Art Agency

– Craft workshops on TNT SCREEN and Tosmile28, teaching block printing using silk screen techniques

– Swing dance classes with Jelly Roll Dance Club and The Stumbling Swingout

– Enjoy various genres of music curated by DJs from Bangkok Community Radio

– A vibrant drum performance by Tiger Drum Thailand

Enhance Your Quality of Life by Creating a Sustainable Art Community

Bangkok Design Week, in collaboration with One Bangkok, believes that art and culture are essential elements in creating a good quality of life. As the city becomes more vibrant, people can immerse themselves in the beauty of living and find new inspirations to actively participate in the development of the city. This will only be possible through the collaborative efforts of all parties to create and develop a city that is worth living in, where art and culture become an integral part of daily life for everyone to enjoy. The activities aim to make art and culture easily accessible to everyone, emphasizing the importance of cooperation and collaboration to foster creativity and develop the art community’s potential, thereby encouraging people to actively contribute to the development of the city. This will create a ‘livable city’ that opens up opportunities for all dreams and limitless possibilities.
