Bangkok is full of amazing buildings, but to us, none stands out more than the Robot Building on South Satorn Road. Designed by Sumet Jumsai and built in 1987, the building originally housed the Bangkok Headquarters for the Bank of Asia, but today houses the United Overseas Bank. When it was first built the Robot Building stood out in Bangkok, despite being just 20 stories high, and today, despite being dwarfed, it still stands out as unique in the heart of Bangkok's financial district.
While modern architecture isn't always looked on with the most positive critiques, this building feels special, it feels elevated. The design of Sumet Jumsai is well-considered and elegant while also being whimsical. When you see the Robot building from the window of the BTS line as you ride by, you can't help but smile.
When you visit Bangkok, you owe it to yourself to visit the Robot Building and smile at it's place in Bangkok, Thailand.

A while back I watched a terrific Thai movie "Pop Aye". It's about a successful Bangkok architect who discovers a show elephant he knows. The architect frees the elephant and walks it up to Isaan to release the beast. It's a lovely story that really captures a lot about Thailand. When I saw Sumet Jungsai in your video, I immediately remembered "Pop Aye". I wonder if there's a connection.
@IdeaStudioBKK
@IdeaStudioBKK 2 года назад
Thanks Charlie, I have seen Pop Aye, great film. I don't think there is any connection to Sumet Jumsai and the main character, I know I certainly saw some of the same personal struggles i faced as an engineer, and I think a lot of people relate with that disillusionment with modern life.

great video thanks it does remind me of the 80's (i do have a suggestion for you 1) Kuman Thong 2) Mae Nak 3) Mae Nak) i believe that this would be great
@IdeaStudioBKK
@IdeaStudioBKK 2 года назад
Thanks you Joe... Yes it does have a distinct 80s vibe, but still feels relevant today. Kuman thong is a great suggestion, let me discuss with Jib and research. We have a video on Mae Nak on the channel, we visited the temple that story takes place at.

Really interesting video, nice to see that fun aspect of architecture that is functional but doesn’t try to fit into the overly serious, stark building forms that is so prevalent in many cities worldwide. Piqued my interest in his art also.
@IdeaStudioBKK
@IdeaStudioBKK 2 года назад
Thank you, Keone! Exactly right about the functional aspect of this building. The architect, Sumet, showed so much restraint in the use of this style, I think that is why it still has appeal. :-)

@IdeaStudioBKK
@IdeaStudioBKK 2 года назад
Thanks guys, really appreciate that. As far as I know the entirety of Sumets collection are contained in Thailand, including the others I highlighted in the video. If he has designs other places around the world I wasn't able to find any reference to them.

Thanks Richard, this is by far one of my favorites in the city, its such a fun building to look at when you pass it on the BTS I think is the best way to experience it for the fist time. The next building is the Sathorn Unique that I am currently working on the video for. Doing interviews and really diving into it's history.
