A robot in Bangok and more


Each week we post a link to an article in Bangkok 101 and today the article is about Dr Sumet Jumsaina Ayudhya สุเมธ ชุมสายอยุธยา and his creation of Bangkok’s most captivatingly peculiar buildings - https://www.bangkok101.com/bard-bizarre-architecture/ - original text by Jim Algie.

Here are just two of some of the buildings he was involved with

-      The Robot Building (1986) - https://goo.gl/maps/gHp3ktk1miy - a building shaped like a robot, simple, now the HQ of the United Overseas Bank
-      The Elephant Tower (1997) - https://goo.gl/maps/aSFc9Ts41Qr - explanation not necessary
