RTB Shopping Mall is a conceptual design project located on Rattanathibet Road in Nonthaburi. The project concept is inspired by "pottery" in Koh Kret, Chao Phraya River, which is unique and known as a hallmark of the Nonthaburi area, both in terms of shape and surface carvings.
The building is designed to break down into smaller units, resembling small vessels arranged in a rhythmic, alternating high-and-low pattern. Some intervals are left open to create entrance pathways into the interior. The building facade features perforated holes, mimicking carvings, to allow for natural ventilation and let interior light filter through at night. This creates a shimmering sparkle, resembling a lamp or lantern made of pottery.
