Abstract:
This independent study explores the multifaceted process of urban regeneration through the adaptive reuse of heritage buildings in the historic area of Song Wat. The research methodology encompasses a comprehensive examination of the historical evolution of Song Wat Road, detailed surveys to assess the cultural significance of heritage buildings, and in-depth interviews with a diverse range of stakeholders, including residents, property owners, and local authorities. By employing a mixed-methods approach, the study aims to unravel the complex interplay between historical preservation, community engagement, and sustainable development in the context of urban regeneration.
Through a meticulous analysis of the physical and value aspects of heritage buildings, the study seeks to uncover the intrinsic connections between architectural heritage, cultural memory, and the evolving identity of Song Wat. By exploring the intangible heritage embedded in the community and the memories of its residents, the research sheds light on how different groups perceive and interact with the built environment, thereby shaping their sense of place and belonging. The study also delves into the historical narrative of Song Wat, tracing its transformation from a bustling commercial district to a neglected area characterised by old warehouses and abandoned structures.
The objectives of the study are multifaceted, aiming to regenerate Song Wat through the adaptive reuse of heritage buildings, raise awareness among locals about the importance of preserving cultural heritage, find a delicate balance between traditional ways of life and contemporary development, and document the chronological development of the area. By examining the physical, geographical, and socio-cultural dimensions of Song Wat, the study provides a holistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities inherent in revitalising a historic neighbourhood while fostering community resilience and sustainable urban growth.
Through a meticulous analysis of past cases, interviews with residents, and exploration of place identity, the study aims to elucidate the intricate dynamics of urban regeneration and heritage-led development in Song Wat. By studying the master plan for the conservation and development of Krung Rattanakosin alongside the regeneration of Song Wat, the research seeks to establish synergies between heritage preservation, economic revitalization, and community empowerment. The study expects to provide significant insights into Song Wat's potential transformation into a vibrant, inclusive, and culturally rich community that respects its history and embraces a sustainable future. -
