The Science Museum Project, initiated in 1992 to honor Queen Sirikit of Thailand's 57th birthday. On November 25, 1994, the cornerstone-laying ceremony for the building in Technopolis, Pathum Thani, was presided over by Mr. Tanin Kraividen, Vice President of the Chulabhorn Research Institute, on behalf of Princess Chulabhorn. The building features a modern architectural design: three large cubes stand on one corner each, providing balance and stability. It was constructed using advanced materials, such as specially coated steel plates and reinforced concrete, ensuring durability and low maintenance. The museum, built on a 180-Rai site, was developed after studies of international science museums. It adopts a modern approach to make science more appealing to the public. It operates as a state enterprise, allowing for greater efficiency and flexibility. The master plan was created in collaboration with British experts.
