As part of a wider urban plan for the surrounding area in Bangkok, Architectkidd renovated a retail development occupying a large space at the busy intersection in the city. Taking an opportunity to question the typical closed \u201cbig box\u201d model of shopping centers, the design aimed to create a more dynamic presence as well as to allow everyday life to permeate through into the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Architectkidd proposed a new intermediate space attached to the front of the existing interior retail volume. This semi-outdoor atrium houses a variety of programs, displays and public functions and provides the ability to house temporary and more experimental activities to reach out to younger people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The facade becomes a mediator between the developing urban conditions and the more traditionally planned interiors. Upon first impression, the continuous metallic surface seems to convey a monumental presence but it is actually a porous layer composed of triangulated slivers that are uniquely sized and cut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The gradient transparencies of the perforated panels provide natural ventilation and reflect changing lighting conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At night, the lighting dematerializes the facade and creates an inviting glow from within the atrium that spreads on to the outdoor and public areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The project, called The Street Ratchada, makes use of Thailand’s traditions in metal work to overcome budgetary and fabrication constraints. Digital design combined with local fabrication was utilized to create a building that possesses technological and crafted qualities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
