架构师提供的文本描述。随着亚洲艺术市场的迅速扩张，商业艺术画廊的需求日益迫切。在过去，曼谷的商业艺术画廊大多位于改造过的商店里，那里的租金是负担得起的，空间也是有局限性的。

Text description provided by the architects. As the Asian arts market expands rapidly, the need for a commercial art gallery has become increasingly imminent. In the past, commercial art galleries in Bangkok were mostly situated in converted shophouses where the rent is affordable and the space is adaptable with limitations.

曼谷城市画廊是曼谷少数几个有意建造的商业艺术画廊之一。它位于曼谷商业区的中心地带，位于这个人口稠密的首都少有的几个开放空间之一。画廊被设计成一幅空白的画布，无论是在里面还是在外面，都是为了摆脱它所处的环境，同时保持与过路人的互动-通过在行人的眼睛水平上的一个大开口，展示它的一些内容，邀请他们来参观它的展览。

Bangkok CityCity Gallery is one of a few purposely built commercial art galleries in Bangkok. It is situated in the heart of a commercial area of Bangkok, in one of a few rare open spaces in this dense capital. Conceived as a blank canvas both inside and out, the gallery is designed to stand out of its contextual environment, at the same time maintaining the interaction with the passer-by by unveiling some of its content through a large opening at the pedestrian’s eyes level, inviting them to come in and explore its exhibition.

设计的目的是创造一个自然和简单的空间。自然光允许从顶部通过天窗进入主画廊，从底部通过地板水平的线性开口，从侧面通过入口周围的周围环境。根据艺术家的意图，这些开放和关闭可以让光线进来，以适应不同的展览需要。

The purpose of the design is to create a space of Nature and Simplicity. Natural light is allowed to come inside the main gallery from the top via the skylights, from the bottom via the linear openings at floor level and from the side via the surroundings around the entrance door. Depending on the artist’s intention, these openings can be opened and closed to let the light in to suit the needs of different exhibitions.

这个想法是从现代对泰国传统建筑的诠释中构思出来的-一群建筑由一个天井与一个高耸于地面之上的庭院相连。画廊建筑群分为两部分。主画廊是为容纳大型设施而设计的，而小型画廊则既是接待区，也是主画廊内展览的挑逗展厅。在小画廊的步骤作为一个休闲的座位区。室外露台连接两个画廊，并通往庭院，这是为户外表演而设计的。

The idea was conceived from modern interpretations on traditional Thai architecture – a cluster of buildings are connected by a patio with a courtyard that is elevated above the ground. The gallery complex is divided into two sections. The main gallery is designed to house large-scale installations, while the small gallery serves as both a reception area and a teaser gallery for the exhibition inside the main gallery. Steps in the small gallery functions as a casual seating area. The outdoor patio connects the two galleries and also leads to the courtyard, which is designed for outdoor performances.

这座建筑还体现了建筑外观的简洁性，以鼓励艺术家们将艺术与建筑结合起来。

The building also expresses the simplicity on the exterior to encourage the artists to engage the arts with the architecture.
