EMBRACING LOCAL HERITAGE: THE VIBRANT DESIGN OF FOOD PARK

The Food Park, located in Central Chiang Rai, is a celebration of local culture and heritage, thoughtfully designed to align with the mall’s Lanna Art concept. This unique approach to food court design creates a space that not only offers a culinary experience but also immerses visitors in the rich cultural tapestry of Northern Thailand.

A carefully curated colour palette adds vibrancy and charm to the Food Park. Shades of pink, green, white, and wood brown create a harmonious and visually engaging environment that balances style with cultural homage. This thoughtful combination of colours enhances the space’s aesthetic appeal while evoking a sense of warmth and hospitality, inviting customers to relax and enjoy their dining experience.

Design elements inspired by local arts further enhance the space’s uniqueness. Lines and jagged patterns reminiscent of traditional Lanna motifs are integrated into the decor, from furniture detailing to wall accents. These patterns add texture and depth, ensuring that the Food Park stands out as a culturally resonant and thoughtfully crafted space.

Local elements are woven throughout the space, creating a distinct identity that honours the region’s traditions. Artwork depicting local animals is prominently featured on the ceilings and walls, drawing inspiration from the vibrant wildlife. Signage and decorative features incorporate the Northern Thai language, providing an authentic cultural touch and enriching the customer experience.

Lighting design also plays a pivotal role in shaping the ambience. Soft, warm lighting accentuates the vibrant colour palette while ensuring that the space feels inviting and cosy. Thoughtfully placed accent lights draw attention to the artwork and patterns, elevating the overall visual appeal and creating a memorable dining atmosphere.

The versatility of the design extends beyond aesthetics. Practical considerations ensure that the Food Park is a functional space that meets the needs of vendors and diners alike. The use of open layouts and strategic seating arrangements enhances flow and accessibility, creating a welcoming environment for groups of all sizes. Whether it’s a lively family gathering or a quick snack at a food kiosk, the design caters to a diverse range of dining experiences.
