The Narai Project
From Icon to Dust to Icon Again.
Witnessing the transformation of Bangkok's legendary Narai Hotel | 2022–2028
Six Years. One Transformation. Untold Stories.
What does it mean to tear down a legend and build it back?
From 2022 to 2028, ROCK Networks documents the complete transformation of the Narai Hotel—from its final days as a 54-year-old icon, through demolition, construction, and rebirth. This isn't just about buildings. It's about memory, progress, and what we choose to preserve when everything changes.
Jonathan Finnigan
Jonathan Finnigan captures what happens in the spaces between—the last shift worked, the first beam raised, the stories whispered before the wrecking ball swings. With acclaimed work in documentary filmmaking, Finnigan brings cinematic storytelling to urban transformation.
"We're not just filming construction. We're documenting what it means to let go and begin again."— Jonathan Finnigan, Director
