The Tsutaya Books team designs Bangkok’s minimalist reading mall
Travel today is no longer just about food, fun, and entertainment—it also values deeper experiences like culture and design. Of course, it’s even better when you can have both. Surprisingly,BangkokOpen House, a hybrid bookstore, actually offers this experience.
Combining a bookstore, food, art, and entertainment, Open House is locatedin Bangkokon the top floor of the Central Embassy mall. The bookstore follows the mall’s pure, elegant white style, with a ceiling designed with leaf motifs, plenty of green plants throughout the space, creating a refreshing atmosphere. Paired with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, it offersa panoramic viewof Bangkok’s cityscape. The space design is different from what you’d typically feel onThailand’sstreets—this is because the project was designed by Klein Dytham architecture, the team behind Tokyo’s Tsutaya Books, creating an urban reading oasis.

The bookstore features a two-story-high book wall, offering over 20,000 books and magazines. The most thoughtful touch is the comfortable sofas placed between the walls and book towers, allowing readers to sit down and enjoy the tranquility of reading after selecting their books.
Open House is more than just a bookstore—it also houses 14 F&B outlets. The food options range from oysters and lobsters to cocktail bars and ice cream desserts. Readers can bring their newly purchased books and spend a relaxing afternoon here.
