Royal Thai Sala Pavilion Restoration - Olbrich Botanical Gardens

Project Background

The Thai Sala was gifted to the University of Wisconsin-Madison from the Thai Government and the Thai Chapter of the Wisconsin Alumni Association in the early 2000’s. The Thai Sala was originally built in Thailand and shipped to the United States in pieces. Thai artisans then traveled to Madison and reassembled it at its current location within Olbrich Gardens. This Thai Sala is one of six located outside of Thailand.


ICA was the Architect of Record for the preservation of this City of Madison treasure.
