Love Letter To Charoenkrung

My architectures are developed from the idea of my city critter which was the combination of modern and traditional architectures in one area. Charoenkrung was a commercial area of Bangkok, this district still remain some part of the district as the same in term of architecture and transportation by boat. It seems like as the time flies but the architectures still the same, even the program inside are changed. The idea that I want to propose is the architecture to be more than just an architecture. It could be a place to tell many stories for example experiences, memories, history or create new perspective to the visitors.

I decide to design a balcony because it is a place that many important events happen. For me, I fall in love with Charoenkrung because I look outside my balcony and see the city, people and watch the sunset. Some other important events are King Rama9 at the palace’s balcony, Romeo and Juliet scene at the balcony. Therefore I can see that the small space can create so many important situation and design my own balcony with my perception of Charoenkrung.
