In the heart of Bangkok's bustling Ploenchit district, Dior Gold House quietly dazzles.

At first glance, it glows with the opulence of Parisian grandeur that is a nod to the House's iconic 30 Avenue Montaigne address, but look closer, and its distinctly Thai soul begins to shine through. Wrapped in golden tiles handcrafted by local artisans and softened by tropical greenery, the neoclassical silhouette pays homage to Haussmann-era Paris, while echoing the gilded splendour of Thai temples.
