SIAMESE EXCLUSIVE QUEENS

Khlong Toei, Bangkok

The architectural concept for Siam Exclusive Queens was to create a residential complex that reflects the diversity of residents living as an entity.


The design is simple, elegant and modern with emphasis on the façade which expresses the myriad of lifestyles within. The random pattern and color gradient, from dark at the base to white at the top, communicates diverse growth. 90% of the façade is glazed and balconies are positioned within the façade skin. This offers residents a 2-in-1 indoor-outdoor space which can be utilized as desired.


There are three gardens where residents can rest and relax. The first is on the ground floor where the existing centennial trees have been carefully preserved to provide shade, creating a graciously welcoming environment. The second garden is located adjacent to the library on the 2nd floor. This common area provides residents with both indoor and outdoor relaxation space. Finally, there is a large rooftop garden and swimming pool where residents can enjoy the magnificent panoramic view of the city.


The location of the plot and surrounding roadways posed a design challenge due to setback regulations.  This was overcome by designing the main building to resemble a simple block form with a smaller, slimmer block form attached, creating a beautiful aesthetic despite regulatory restrictions.


A separate building houses the parking garage. Residents are provided a choice of traditional or automated parking. The automated parking system allows cars to be called for from the main building for optimal efficiency and convenience.
