What To Look Out For in Artbox Thailand (Chatuchak)

Artbox Thailand moved to a new location last November, shifting every few months and now has found a temporary abode in Chatuchak. The famous night market is well known for featuring local artisans and bringing aspiring designers together.

Its charm lies in the quirkiness of the whole place – unlike usual markets in Bangkok, the items sold here are usually one-of-a-kind and handmade. Housed within giant metal containers are thoughtfully designed products by local designers, cheap vintage knick knacks, unusual products you never knew you needed, modern lifestyle items and of course, a range of amazing food that Thailand is so well known for.
