Descripción: Arriving in Bangkok from Dublin, I did not know quite what to expect from a city whose name in Thai language, Krung Thep, translates directly as ‘City of Angels’. Thailand’s renown for warmth, charm and hospitality is well known, however in its period of transition, political reorganisation, and recent natural disaster, the nation is being forced to reconcile tradition and progress, East and West, classicism and modernism. Events at the Design Research Society conference 2012, staged at Chulalongkorn University Bangkok, fortified the city’s reputation and exposed the country’s exciting state of flux. Over the four days from 1st to 4th July, DRS delegates encountered a multidimensional culture – a nation which is at once freeflowing and open to change, yet which remains grounded in tradition and pride for its rich history.
