Bangkok Design Week: a growth engine for Thailand

BKKDW is a growth engine for Thailand’s creative industries, stimulating business competitiveness. In different ways, it includes showcasing innovative companies and projects. It also boosts competitiveness and promotes the creative industry.
Moreover, Design Festival Week also positively impacts Bangkok’s tourism industry, galleries, cafes, restaurants, gifts and souvenirs, travel, hotels, and public transportation.

Bangkok, in fact, is one of the most desirable tourist destinations, but it’s not an ideal nice place to live. In the several rankings of “tourist cities,” Bangkok always ranks high among the cities everyone wants to visit. This may be because of the appeal of its various tourist attractions, the reasonable cost of living for travelers, and the friendliness of the people.
However, Bangkok needs to catch up in the ranking of livable cities due to various structural problems.
These include traffic congestion, lack of infrastructure, air quality problems, insufficient green spaces, and insufficient public areas. In addition, Bangkok faces future challenges, such as rapid urban transformation.

Bangkok Design Week: Livable Landscape

Against this backdrop, Bangkok Design Week becomes an opportunity to invite the design community to create a “Livable Landscape” in all possible forms, from the relationships we build to the space we inhabit to the environment we live in. A city that is physically well-designed, easily accessible, and promotes good health. A city that cares for its inhabitants and offers diverse activities and celebrates authentic culture.
In this sense, design matters: a well-designed city ensures good living, thriving public spaces, and strong communities and contributes to the creative economy.
