HILTON SUKHUMVIT BANGKOK

Sukhumvit 24, Bangkok
Thailand

Due to its central location, Sukhumvit 24 is rapidly becoming a high-end, residential neighborhood conveniently close to a mass transit line, a public park, a shopping centre and numerous multi-national cuisine restaurants. It is a very popular area amongst expats residing in Bangkok. The client recognized the opportunity to develop a 5-star hotel to fit in with the neighborhood and acquired an ajoining hotel on Sukhumvit 26, thus forming a shared service area supporting both hotels.


The façade design of this new 5-star Hilton Sukhumvit portrays a modern, clean look that stands out from the surrounding buildings whilst complementing its sister property, the Double Tree by Hilton on Sukhumvit 26. Vertical fins on western facade draws inspiration from Japanese origami, reflecting the populous Japanese community in the area.


Height restrictions were overcome by designing a stepped tower, creating a strong, artistic, aesthetic element at the façade. Multiple vertical lines connect the top of the tower to the ground resulting in slender proportions, rendering an elegance in tune with the Hilton brand. The double-height lobby space is visible through clear glass walls, enabling visitors and guests to experience the full volume of the lobby from outdoors.


North and south elevations combine horizontal glazing lines with aluminium-clad walls that are patterned to match the distinct interior layout of the guest rooms. The rooftop swimming pool at the northern façade is a feature that adds colour to the building, and the view from the pool adds an exciting sense of the drama to the city skyline.


General colour scheme and composition of elements for the exterior, a mixture of white vertical fins with warm gray cladding and dark gray painted solid wall base, results in a clean elegant look. The interior design of the public spaces focuses strongly on creating an exciting and trendy, yet luxurious feel. A selection of artistically composed mixed & matched fine materials reflects the sophistication that is expected of the Hilton brand, resulting in bright, fresh interior spaces that keep its visitors pleasantly surprised as they move from space to space.


Guestrooms design emphasizes comfort, with a more understated elegance expressed through the use of warm colours and fine materials, as well as a distinctive geometric pattern. Objects of art are strategically placed inside and outside the building to add an extra dimension to the spaces.


The landscape architect worked well with the tight spaces surrounding the building to create a mixture of fun, artistic, green spaces and high green-screen walls. The hotel’s front entrance area was designed to address the requirements of the Feng Shui master as well as functionality and aesthetic design.
