Concept:
Central Department Store, a famous shopping center in Thailand, had a new preject in a suburb of Bangkok on Rama 2 Road. Surrounding of the site had no high rise building. Architect would like this plaza to be obvious when compares with the nearby area. For these reasons, the look of architecture was designed to be modern style and used colourful graphic and overlaping layers on facade. Lighting design concept is to repeat architect’s concept that the building could be obviously seen from distance by emphasizing graphic wall, but not over lit.
