Design
The Emporium was designed by J+H Boiffils. The Emporium was their first shopping mall design project in Thailand. They later designed Siam Paragon, another Bangkok shopping mall, for the same developer. The Emporium was Bangkok’s first luxury lifestyle mall offering venues for upscale shopping, dining and entertainment, and supermarket in one complex. With the launch of the Bangkok sky train system several years later, The Emporium was the first mall to allow direct access from the skytrain station into the mall, allowing customers to enter easily and conveniently.

“Westerners inherit
A design for living
Deeper into matter—
Not without due patter
Of a great misgiving.”

“The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.”
—Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)
