Architecture Asia, as the official journal of the Architects Regional Council Asia, strives to serve as a platform that not only presents Asian phenomena and their unique characteristics to the global audience but also fosters an understanding of diversity and multiculturalism within Asia from a broad perspective. In this edition, we delve into the evolution of contemporary architecture in Thailand, showcasing five essays and twelve captivating projects that shed light on this perspective. The five essays explore the contemporary architecture of Thailand in Southeast Asia, delving into how Western architectural theories influenced its development and ultimately resulted in a harmonious blend of modernization and localization. The twelve projects, accompanied by stunning full-color photographs and detailed text descriptions, focus on the exploration of modernity, regionalism, and futurism in Thai architecture from 1940 to 1980. These projects highlight architectural works that not only showcase practical industrial buildings but also demonstrate the profound exploration of Thai contemporary architecture across various disciplines, including ecology, humanities, society, and industry. By presenting these diverse perspectives, Architecture Asia aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the rich architectural heritage and ongoing developments in Asia, fostering a global appreciation for the region's architectural diversity.
