wow !!
Just have this beautiful sculpture in my country is really enough for me.
I am Thai, and I agree with this project’s proposal. Here is some texts about this project from bustler.net that might be able to answer the inquiries.
(http://www.bustler.net/index.php/article/fars_studio_wins_landmark_competition_for_chao_phraya_river_in_thailand/) ” this area has been abandoned for quite a long time, as a result of the very different levels of the tide.” The bridge-like structure advantages the visitors to be able to access this area even when the 9-meter-flooding takes place.
I don’t think it serves much purposes. Beautiful sculpture, but that’s just about it. At such an important landmark, people should have put more thoughts into doing something to “reserve” it, more than just the thought of “wow, it’s an empty piece of land, let’s put a bridge (which doesn’t cross anything) on it and name it a landmark.” But that’s just my opinion.
Or, at least create something less modern and more integrated into the surrounding local areas than this.
A perfect silhouette for the coastal line, it complements the water element, working in harmony with its surroundings.
elegant and simple, love it!!

I kinda feel like that too… don’t get me wrong it’s a beautiful piece of architecture but like the old saying goes “location, location, location”
WHY???
