NYE

NYE is a high-end luxury condominium project developed by Thai property company Sansiri PLC on the fast-developing Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River, along the BTS Skytrain main line, with landscape architecture by Landscape Collaboration. Its twin high-rise towers have become one of the most important residential projects in the district, and the practice developed a classical-modern landscape language to meet the expectations of the luxury market. The entry plaza carries strong horizontal contrast bands that rise vertically along a characteristic gate, walls and accentuated lattice elements defining multiple outdoor courtyards and spaces. At ground level, two lobbies share a tranquil courtyard furnished with shallow water and sunken seating while still allowing emergency-vehicle access. The surrounding ground-plane landscape continues the strong lines and banded composition, providing comfortable, intimate spaces that connect seamlessly and reinforce the grandeur of the project's overall open space. The grandeur of the design is expressed through mirrored double-height green walls that wrap the parking podium and a cantilevered swimming pool. The pool deck on the podium roof is equally striking: horizontal tile patterns combine with infinity edges on both sides to create the illusion of a continuously floating water plane. The landscape designers exploit the project's rich spatial inventory, using strong forms and patterns to define space, and the careful proportioning of pattern to space produces a luxuriously detailed landscape that answers the expectations of high-end residents.
