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.


This is a lightbox for a gold shop in Chinatown. I’ve noticed that many gold shops in Bangkok tend to use bold colors like red, yellow, green, and blue in their signage. For this particular sign, the shop name is displayed in a very bulky Thai font alongside Chinese characters. Interestingly, each language is presented in a different color, with a colorful border wrapping around the lightbox, creating a vibrant visual tension that grabs your attention.

Location:

152 154 Yaowarat Rd, Chakkrawat, Samphanthawong, Bangkok 10100
