泰国皇冠假日酒店景观 Crowne Plaza Hotel by LAB

This project involved the renovation of a small site between the main entrance to the Ramaland Building and busy Rama IV Road, not far from the heart of Bangkok’s hectic Silom district. The building includes a mixed-use office tower and the Crowne Plaza Rama IV Hotel. LAB was involved in a conceptual design aimed at transforming this unused space into a tranquil haven for workers and visitors to the building and guests of the hotel. After some consideration we settled on a theme of separation between the public sidewalk and an outdoor venue for hotel guests. A transparent wall now separates the two realms. Its predominant color on both sides is green, and at first glance the wall may appear to be solid, but closer inspection will reveal many small openings. The design aims to please not only the hotel guests, but also people passing by. Within the garden, water is used to create a pleasant sound and flowering frangipani trees contribute shade and their distinctive fragrance.
