#January Getaways 2026 Located on the 6th floor of Bangkok's top shopping mall, Central Embassy, ​​Open House, designed by Klein Dytham Architecture (KDa), the team behind the Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore in Japan, spans 4,600 square meters. More than just a bookstore, it's a "co-living space" combining dining, co-working spaces, an art gallery, and a children's play area. 🏛️ Architectural and Spatial Highlights • "Indoor Forest" Design: The ceiling is decorated with 9,600 hand-painted leaf patterns, paired with wood tones and abundant greenery, extending the atmosphere of an outdoor park indoors. • 180-Degree City Views: Huge floor-to-ceiling windows face the greenery and embassy district of Wireless Road, making it the perfect escape from Bangkok's summer heat, enjoy air conditioning, and overlook the city skyline. • A Wall of Books: Operated by Hardcover, this bookstore boasts over 20,000 rare art, photography, and design books, presented in a breathtaking, surrounding display of towering bookshelves. 🍴 Recommended Areas and Dining Open House seamlessly blends a bookstore and restaurant, allowing you to dine amidst the aroma of books. • Eating Deck: Featuring renowned light meals from Bangkok, such as French pastries from Paris Mikki and plant-based cuisine from Broccoli Revolution. • Recommended dishes include authentic Neapolitan pizza from Peppina or Instagram-worthy Thai afternoon tea from Lady Nara. • Co-Thinking Space: For those who want to work with their laptops, this space offers quiet, accessible workspaces with excellent views. 📸 Photography Tips • Bookshelf Tunnel: The tiered space filled with books on both sides is perfect for capturing artistic and sophisticated photos. • Daylight: We recommend visiting between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM, when sunlight streams through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto the wooden bookshelves, creating the softest light and shadow. • Rules: Photography is allowed inside, but using unpurchased books as props is prohibited.
