CentralWorld, with its historical connection to lily pads, has been inspired by Bangkok’s intricate dance between the old and the new. Aiming to harmonise the contrasts between chaos and calm, the renovated exterior and high ceiling of this retail space convey the serene impression of a lily pad in a bustling urban milieu. The double-layered arched facade frames lively views of its vibrant interior, with terraces adding depth and greenery, and the interior is decorated in materials that range from modern metallic grids to timeless timber and woven cane.
