Text description provided by the architects
The Lumpini 24, a luxury condominium on Sukhumvit 24 in central Bangkok developed by LPN, sits in one of the city's first neighborhoods to bury overhead power lines, near Rama IV and the Phrom Phong BTS station. Residents have easy access to major tourist, shopping and dining destinations; the location is close to The Emporium shopping complex, upscale restaurants and Benchasiri Park. Landscape Architects 49 developed the landscape around the LPN philosophy of a vibrant community, in which residents enjoy the true pleasure of life through optimized solutions, social and environmental quality, and a spirit of solidarity, care and sharing. The design translates this philosophy into a dense, high-rise urban landscape that prioritizes communal gathering, shaded circulation and carefully tuned social and ecological amenities. Planting, seating and programmed activity spaces are composed to encourage encounter among residents while respecting the privacy and relief that a luxury Bangkok condominium is expected to deliver. The resulting landscape frames everyday luxury within walking distance of one of Bangkok's most established residential and retail precincts. Project details are limited in the source material.
