An urban regeneration project was conducted in Bangkok Thailand as a joint collaboration between the Master of Tropical Design (MTUD) students from FRSB, UPM, Serdang and Master of Architecture students from Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University (SSRU), Bangkok. The two student groups conducted an urban analysis and synthesis of an urban precinct in Banglamphu part of the historic district of Rattanakosin in Bangkok.

The urban analysis included the following:

• Analysis of the precinct in terms of legibility, permeability, and visual analysis
• Identifying existing physical and visual connectivity to surrounding areas
• Identifying existing activities and functions

The urban synthesis included the following:

• A concept for the precinct targeting the visual and physical connectivity, building typology, streets and public spaces, functions and activities
• Ensuring that all design proposals address the impacts of climate change and future pandemics

The outcomes of the project ensured that the existing character, sense of place and identity of Banglamphu are fully retained.
