Benjakitti Park: Transforming Urban Space into a Biodiverse Sanctuary

Arsomsilp's Benjakitti Park in Bangkok is a revolutionary urban park that addresses climate challenges through innovative design. The park, located on the site of a former tobacco factory, incorporates sustainable features such as rainwater retention, water purification, and biodiversity preservation. The project was completed in August 2022, marking a significant milestone in urban ecological restoration.

The park's unique design not only serves as a public space but also educates the community on sustainability, hydrology, and forest ecology. By repurposing materials from the factory and utilizing local construction techniques, the park sets a new standard for adaptive reuse and sustainable urban rejuvenation. Benjakitti Park stands as a testament to the harmonious coexistence of man and nature in urban environments.

With a focus on low-impact construction and self-sustainability, the park showcases the potential of nature-based approaches to urban sustainability. Through its transformative design, Benjakitti Park has become a model for ecological park development, offering a glimpse into the future of urban green spaces.

The project was awarded the prestigious Golden A' Design Award in Landscape Planning and Garden Design in 2024, recognizing its exceptional contribution to urban sustainability and ecological restoration.
