The Mercure Bangkok Surawong Hotel is a sensitive renovation project that reimagines an existing structure with deep respect for its architectural and urban context. Situated in a historic neighborhood shaped by mid-century modernism, the design takes a conservative approach—aiming not to stand out, but to belong. Rather than imposing a new identity, the intervention restores and reinterprets, preserving the rhythm and scale of the streetscape while quietly elevating the building’s presence.
