History re-imagined

An old Bang Rak house, restored for gathering

This old heritage house in Bang Rak, Bangkok's district of love, was built by the Portuguese. A Thai designer and Thai builders took it back to its bones and restored it as a place to gather: a bar, a gallery hall, a main room for talks and music, and, for full-day buyouts, quiet rooms upstairs for smaller conversations.
