Open House is located in the Central Embassy complex 50m above Bangkok. It features a village of spaces each with a familiar human scale -  restaurants, bars, galleries, stores, pop-ups, libraries and workspaces that all seamlessly work together. In today?s mega cities there is nowhere to pause, take a breath, sit or simply get back in control of your senses, especially in the stifling heat of Bangkok. Open House is the antidote to this - it is an oasis, a getaway - a place where you can feel at home.
