German carmaker Porsche to build luxury residential tower in Thailand
The German luxury car maker Porsche has recently revealed the design for the Porsche Design Tower Bangkok, an ultra-luxury high-rise apartment block, described as an "architectural masterpiece".
The project will be carried out by Ananda Development, a property development company, as well as Porsche Design, which is the auto manufacturer’s luxury goods arm.
The apartment building will have 22 Sky Villas, which will range from 525 square metres to 1,135 square metres, and are expected to have a price tag starting from $15m (€13.59m) to $40m (€36.25m). These Sky Villas will have both quadplex and duplex options.
The building will also have a slew of other luxury amenities, such as an internal spiral car ramp, dubbed “The Loop”, luxury car garages ideal for car collections, a spa, pool, gym and social and business lounges.
The apartment block will also have spacious wraparound balconies, while also incorporating a lot of metal and glass in its design. It will also come with features such as electrically-powered cabinet doors and drawers, and upscale customisable appliances.
The project will be located in the Sukhumvit area of Bangkok.
The construction for this 21-storey residential project is expected to start in 2025 and be finished by the end of 2028. It will be the third tower of its kind built by Porsche Design, with the others being in Stuttgart and Miami.
Porsche recently highlighted that these apartment blocks were a way for the company to provide exclusive experiences to their most valued and discerning clients. Southeast Asia is also becoming a key region for the company, mainly because of important automotive events being hosted in the area.
