项目 – 曼谷Urban Praxis建筑事务所在当地一处密集的住宅区内，新近完成了备受瞩目的Ritratana办公楼（B楼）。这座大楼旨在通过引入现代化的工作场所和充足的公共空间，来振兴“Ramkamhaeng-Rama9”路口一带的社区环境。"Ritratana一词源自梵文，意为'力量'和'宝石',"设计师解释道，"我们的设计在建筑立面转角处体现了宝石般耀眼的切面造型。"如上述所言，建筑设计灵感源自宝石，玻璃幕墙以戏剧性的斜角切面组合而成，在建筑转角处形成吸睛的晶体般造型。这些多面切割的外表不仅赋予了建筑独特的识别性，同时也向30年前兴建的原Ritratana办公楼致敬。为了优先考虑员工身心健康，办公楼层均设有阳光充足的社交空间，大面积的北向玻璃幕墙让阳光倾泻而入。户外有一条被设计成高架"街道"的楼梯，融入绿化环抱元素，引导人们通往工作场所。底层设有广场，将新老两栋Ritratana办公楼连接起来，为这座紧凑的地块注入活力，打造成为私人开放的社区空间。晶莹剔透的外表和设施齐全的内在环境，使Ritratana办公楼成为曼谷当代办公空间设计的新标杆。

Project - In a densely populated residential area of Bangkok, Thai architecture firm Urban Praxis has completed the striking Ritratana Office Building. The 4,900 square metre tower aims to revitalize the neighborhood around the Ramkamhaeng-Rama9 intersection by introducing a modern workplace with ample public spaces. The building's design draws inspiration from gemstones, with dramatic angled facades clad in glass forming eye-catching crystalline forms at the corners. These faceted protrusions create a unique identity while also paying homage to the original Ritratana office building constructed 30 years prior. "The name 'Ritratana,' derived from Sanskrit, translates to 'power' and 'gemstone'," explained the architects, "the design proposes prominent gemstone-inspired facets adorning the building's facade corners." Prioritizing occupant wellbeing, the office floors feature communal areas flooded with natural light from large north-facing curtain walls. An exterior staircase designed as an elevated urban "street" guides people to their workplaces while incorporating greenery. On the ground level, a public plaza connects the new building to its predecessor, activating the compact site as a privately-owned community space. With its crystalline form and amenity-filled interior, Ritratana sets a bold precedent for contemporary workplace design in Bangkok.
