Siam Paragon is stepping into a new era with the debut of NEXTOPIA: Prototype of the World of Tomorrow, a world-first co-creation destination designed to reshape the way we live, shop, and engage with sustainability. Covering more than 15,000 square meters across Levels 5 and 5A, NEXTOPIA isn’t just another expansion but a future city, crafted through the combined talents of over 50 innovation partners, over 30 sustainability communities, and leading global organisations including the United Nations, UNDP BIOFIN, UNICEF, WWF, and the World Food Programme.
NEXTOPIA: Prototype of the World of Tomorrow
Guided by the principle of “Co-creating Communities for a Better World”, NEXTOPIA serves as an open invitation for visitors to experience, participate in, and help shape a more sustainable future. This is where innovative technology, purposeful design, and lifestyle experiences merge into a dynamic ecosystem driven by creativity and positive impact.
Sustainable Foundations
At the core of NEXTOPIA are breakthrough innovations seamlessly integrated into a retail environment, from a vast solar rooftop system delivering renewable power directly into the space to radiant cooling floors, advanced DAS and DOAS air systems, and a 16-metre waterfall that cools the vicinity while minimizing energy use. Subtle features such as the Scent of NEXTOPIA infuse the space with the aroma of a pine forest, while every architectural detail, from non-toxic specialty paints to recyclable woods, plastics and metals, extend into artistic and architectural landmarks including the Tree of Life entrance, The Bloom floral showcase, and the Ocean and Forest Canopies.
Small Actions, Big Impact, Real Rewards
At NEXTOPIA, every task creates a positive impact, whether it is the Kinetic Floor transforming footsteps into clean electricity, cycling to generate power, or refilling water bottles to reduce plastic waste. Visitors can also plant hydroponic produce at the Vertical Farm and stay informed about global climate conditions through The Globe, powered by real-time data from NASA and GISTDA. These interactive activities are embedded throughout NEXTOPIA, inviting guests to have fun, earn green points, and contribute to real-world change.
Conscious Shopping Meets Dining Adventures
Retail and dining at NEXTOPIA are equally eco-forward. Anchored by ECOTOPIA, an eco-specialty store supporting local communities, the zone brings together carefully curated brands offering greener lifestyle choices across fashion, beauty, wellness, hygiene, kids, and even pets.
As for restaurants, there’s an impressive list of eateries that are a first for Thailand and are also new in Siam Paragon with new concepts. L’antica Pizzeria Da Michele and Gordon Ramsay Street Burger, both debuting in Thailand, anchor NEXTOPIA’s culinary scene alongside innovative cafés and lifestyle-focused concepts. All brands within NEXTOPIA are also vetted for their eco-friendliness, ensuring their commitment to making a greener world.
With NEXTOPIA, Siam Paragon ushers in a new chapter of responsible creative collaboration, sustainability-driven living, and mindful consumption in the heart of Bangkok.
