Theme- Bottoms Up http://www.architectexpo.net/html/03_asa_pavilion-eng.php.
An exhibition of architecture for the community
The exhibition of Community Act Network (CAN) such as the discussion on community development related issues, the exhibit of community design works, a photo display, an area for volunteer application, and other activities to support the operation of the network
UNIVERSAL DESIGN exhibition
Senior people and the disabled are increasing in number day by day. Residences and public buildings that provide them services, both in the public and private sectors also increase. Public offices, mass transit stations, trade centers, or even sidewalks are all public places that everyone should have equal access to and use. Architects as a small group of people in the society working on designs should be conscious of the need to adapt this big world for everybody to happily coexist in peace.
The UNIVERSAL DESIGN exhibition in Architect '11 is the sharing of experiences for architects and the general public to learn from real situation in ASA exhibition area. Visitors can get real experiences on wheelchair which gives them better understanding than studying from designs alone, as service users themselves in the model house or the "kind house". This can make the world more livable and bring smiles to every face.
Green School exhibition
This is a joint activity between the Association of Siamese Architects under the Royal Patronage and Siam City Cement Company Limited (Eagle Cement) in running the Green School Project for the Border Patrol Police Schools under the cooperation with the Office of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn's Projects.
