Bangkok Studios

Thailand's Premier Content Production Campus

Located in Bangkok’s emerging northern corridor, Bangkok Studios is set to revolutionize content production in Southeast Asia. Spanning 185,806 square meters of advanced production infrastructure, the project converts former agricultural land into a cutting-edge film and television production campus. The master plan, developed for Ally Global, aims to establish Bangkok as a pivotal hub in the global entertainment industry, creating sustainable economic opportunities for local creative communities while strategically positioning itself to capture a growing share of international production.

A Next-Generation Creative Content Campus

Bangkok Studios is a next-generation creative content campus responding to the growing demand for high-caliber production facilities outside traditional markets. Designed to support both traditional and digital production workflows, the campus features an innovative elevated design with integrated base camps that enables simultaneous large-scale productions while maintaining operational security and reducing setup times.

Bangkok Studios goes beyond traditional studio concepts by creating a dynamic, mixed-use creative environment that includes:

  • 6 state-of-the-art soundstages
  • 1,858 square meters of vertical office spaces
  • 929 square meters of production support
  • Sky-level retail and entertainment venues
  • Collaboration spaces for production-related functions
  • Strategically placed event spaces

"Bangkok Studios reimagines the traditional production campus as an integrated urban destination, setting new standards for creative districts in Southeast Asia."

— Andy Lantz, Creative Director & Partner, RIOS

Urban Green Space: Reimagining the Studio Lot Concept

The architecture responds to Bangkok’s tropical climate through strategic environmental design strategies. Landscape elements and plantings weave into the architecture, mitigating the region’s heat. Water features provide evaporative cooling of the exterior spaces, while the building’s geometry is designed for natural shading. The design integrates traditional Thai architectural principles for natural ventilation, complemented by extensive green roofs and vertical gardens covering 25-30% of built surfaces.

Addressing Bangkok’s limited green space, the project introduces an extensive landscape network that transforms the traditional studio lot. By integrating gardens and community spaces between production facilities, Bangkok Studios creates a more neighborhood-like atmosphere. This approach not only enhances the visitor experience but also contributes to the city’s sustainability goals through the maximized use of planting, on-structure landscape, solar power, and building orientation.
