ACT FORUM'23 : 'ตำถาด : Time of Togetherness'
Hosted by:
ACT Forum'23 was held on 25–30 April 2023 at Phoenix Function Room and Jupiter Function Room, IMPACT Muang Thong Thani.
Throughout our 5-day event, we divided into 2 Forums:
-
Thai Forum
-
International Forum & Collaborative Forum
All sessions are now available. See all the contents here

ACT Forum is the International Forum on Architecture hosted by the Architect Council of Thailand (ACT), intending to provide professional knowledge in response to the dynamics of society, which will help the professionals/ architectural academicians to be able to support the expectations of society properly and with better quality.
ACT Forum will cover all four architectural professional fields – Architecture, Interior Design and Decorative Arts, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Architecture. The event was first held in 2019 under the concept of REACT – Respond, Expansion, and Continuous. In the year 2020, due to the pandemic, the event needs to transform into a hybrid mode to ensure the participants' safety and become fully online in 2021 as the pandemic is getting worse.
As the situation began to alleviate this year, in 2023, another form of ACT Forum will occur. It will consider the first time of organizing ACT Forum with the collaboration of four Architectural professional associations as Co-host in Architect'23 under the concept of:
The architects' work is directly related to the society and culture, which the critical culture and the collective identity that represents Thai people is 'Food.' Hence, we choose to use the Thai dish called 'ตำถาด' or 'Som Tum Tray' to be the food that represents the combination of all architecture fields.
As the Architect Council of Thailand (ACT) is the moderator of the theme, ACT is like a tray that supports all professional associations.
'ตำถาด : Time of Togetherness'

The heart of ACT Forum'23 is to give more understanding of architectural professions and the work process of all four branches, including Architecture, Interior Design and Decorative Arts, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Architecture, to the architects and general public in the form of collaboration. One way to generate the topic that will be discussed is to start with projects that are expected to attract participants' attention or the current social issue.
