From August 31 to September 3, 2022, Montfort del Rosario School of Architecture and Design, Assumption University together with the Architecture Program of Vietnamese-German University organized a Summer Workshop for the students, which aims to enhance the co-working and co-learning of students in the field. With the objective of revitalizing an urban neighborhood and community, the study site is located at Ari district, Bangkok where the group has received a strong support and collaboration of Pa Thai social enterprise and Public Relations Department of Thailand.


 

 

 

The project aims to intensively explore the unconventional possibilities and hidden potentials in making a better place of Ari area.  The students of two universities are mixed and divided into six groups to work under the guidance of the lecturers. One of the challenges of students is the limited time to shape the new programs for the selected area by integrating with the old function of Public Relation Museum at Ari and the surrounding park to improve the connectivity in the neighborhood and make it become a heart of the community.
