  "account": "Bangkok International Design Expo 2026, titled \"The World Ends: Create What Matters,\" will take place at Bangkok Kunsthalle from November 25-29, 2026. The event aims to gather designers, architects, artists, thinkers, technologists, institutions, and creative communities to contemplate what design should create in the face of an impending world-ending scenario. Among the confirmed participants are Mexico City's Lanza Atelier, London's OK-RM, and Thailand's CHAT Architects.\n\nThe Expo will feature exhibitions, pavilions, installations, talks, performances, and encounters, creating a space for disciplines, cultures, and generations to intersect. The theme, \"Between,\" delves into the transformative forces reshaping our lives, while \"Elsewhere\" explores alternative systems and unfamiliar possibilities. \"Create What Matters\" prompts participants to contemplate what should be created, why it should exist, who it should serve, and what it might leave behind.\n\nThe Expo's selection of Bangkok as its host city is justified by the city's unique blend of old and new, formal and informal, local and global, making it ideal for fostering creative exchange. Bangkok Kunsthalle, a former printing house in Chinatown, exemplifies this spirit of reinvention. The Expo builds upon a previous forum held in Bangkok in May 2026, expanding that conversation to an international audience. By connecting creative exchange with opportunity, TCEB aims to develop creative collaboration, business opportunities, and growth for Thailand's creative economy. Attendees are encouraged to bring ideas, questions, and a spirit of discovery to experience what's next for design by visiting www.theworldends.org.",
