Inside the pink pastel box, which has just popped up inside their department store, this museum's showcase will not be complete without its main exhibition: you. Get snapped upon entering MOME and get ready to see yourself turned into art works by 10 different artists.

» 1 Animal conservation is the hot topic of the town, and Jim Thompson is (unintentionally) getting involved in the fight. In buying their autumn/winter 2017 collection of scarves, specifically the Tiger Silk Jacquard Scarf (11,500 baht), you will be donating 5% (575 baht) of the price towards The World Wildlife Foundation. With a large dimension of 27 by 27 inches, the print of the powerful tiger has been expertly jacquard woven into 100% Jim Thompson silk. There are two colours available for this cause: gold/brown and silver/grey.
It's no child's play

» This Children's Day, Lego aficionados can witness the beauty of Bangkok via the world's most popular building blocks. Created with over 500,000 Lego bricks, 11 iconic destinations in Bangkok have been recreated in both mosaic and 3D, and from an 8.5m, snap-ready panorama. Both traditional and colonial treasures are on display, be it the Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall, Wat Phra Kaew or Yaowarat Road. The model-building team -- all men who have a hobby of Lego building -- first decided where to position each place, before they worked together to connect the sky mosaic in the background. Then, each person worked to scale down their building, a process which averaged up to two months, with one month to design the final display and another month to build the actual destination. We talked to two of the 11 builders who have long been on the Lego circuit about how creating model destinations is no child's play.
