Occupying two floors of the downtown retail complex, LV The Place Bangkok establishes a dream-like aura from its corner location where the façade is enhanced with giant diamond shapes that glow at night. From the inside, the space plays out as a multi-faceted integration of retail, dining and culture.
The “Visionary Journeys” exhibition, located on the ground floor, offers an unparalleled exploration of Louis Vuitton’s heritage through a scenographic experience crafted by the esteemed architectural firm OMA, led by Partner Shohei Shigematsu. This collaboration between OMA and Louis Vuitton introduces an architectural identity for the exhibition, featuring thematic rooms that provide immersive environments. These environments bring together historical and contemporary pieces, highlighting the Maison’s core pillars of savoir-faire, innovation, travel, and creation.
The journey begins with the “Trunkscape,” a tunnel crafted from 96 trunk modules, leading visitors into a narrative of craftsmanship and ingenuity. The “Origins” section delves into the Vuitton family’s significant contributions, showcasing archival documents and early designs. Notable trunks from the late 19th century and the evolution of the Monogram canvas showcase the brand’s continuity and innovation. The exhibition further celebrates 25 years of fashion history through iconic bags like the Alma and Speedy, presented in clear acrylic bubbles to highlight their design and significance.
