Welcome to BangkokType — a little space where I share my love for the unique and vibrant typography found all across Bangkok.

Exploring the beauty of Bangkok, one sign at a time.


What an ancient signboard I stumbled upon in Chinatown! Teo Hoa Ang is a trading company on Song Wat Road — one of the trendiest streets in the area right now. Judging by the design, font, and overall look, this sign must be over 70 years old, maybe even more. I’m no antiques expert, but this one definitely feels like a rare piece straight from the past.

This is the signboard for its branch company, located in the same street — same name, just with “branch” added next to it.

A more modern signboard featuring the company name in Chinese, Thai, and English, with a logo placed right in the center.

Location:

1658-1662 Song Wat Rd, Talat Noi, Samphan Thawong, Bangkok 10100
