Snøhetta’s Cloud 11 Completed in Thailand with the Country’s Largest Elevated Creative Park

Snøhetta, in collaboration with A49 Architects, has unveiled its most extensive urban regeneration project in Asia for Magnolia Quality Development Corporation (MQDC). Located in the South Sukhumvit — one of Bangkok’s most vibrant cultural and innovation hubs — Cloud 11 is a mixed-use development defined by a central courtyard that serves as both ecological infrastructure and cultural park. The design harnesses the power of landscape to create an urban oasis that champions environmental resilience and community wellbeing.

Bangkok faces significant urban challenges, including rising heat, air pollution, recurrent flooding, and one of the lowest public green space ratios in Asia – less than 7 m² per resident, compared to a regional average of 39 m². Snøhetta’s solution to these issues is a sustainable, landscape-based approach with a horizontal landmark and a raised landscape to prioritize openness, accessibility, adaptability, and community.

Cloud 11 responds to Bangkok’s pressing urban challenges, aligning with the Green Bangkok 2030 and Enter Bangkok 2050 initiatives that reflect Thailand’s commitments under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement. As a development supporting these national and global goals, the design employs a sustainable, landscape-based approach to offset the environmental impact of large-scale urban developments.

The project is set to open to the public in March 2026. More information.
