The Rhythmic Retail Experience at One Bangkok

The comprehensive development features three interconnected retail experiences – The Parade, The STOREYS (both open 25 October) and POST 1928 (to open in the next phase). Each offers a unique blend of shopping, dining, beauty, health, wellness and entertainment, catering to diverse preferences. The district will also be home to Thailand's first "MITSUKOSHI DEPACHIKA"- the newest food destination for Japanese & international groceries and food hall with the one-of-a-kind concept of Japanese "DEPACHIKA". Beyond the three retail experiences, One Bangkok Retail pulsates with local pride and global appeal. 'Made in One Bangkok' showcases Thai craftsmanship and creativity with unique experiences, exclusively designed for One Bangkok.

The 'Food Loop' with the concept of an "All Day, Everyday Dining Journey", houses 250 dining options over a 1.5 km stretch ranging from legendary fine dining restaurants to vibrant street food, creating a one-stop destination suited to every palate.

Elevating Bangkok's Cultural Landscape

Art takes centre stage at One Bangkok with the 'Art Loop', a 2 km pathway that winds its way through the development, featuring diverse artworks and comprehensive programmes. One Bangkok will soon unveil permanent public sculptures including the works of world-renowned artists Anish Kapoor and Tony Cragg.

A Lush Urban Green in the Heart of Bangkok

Built on three development principles of People-Centricity, Green Sustainability and Smart City Living, One Bangkok prioritises visitors' experience, with people being central to every decision. Every detail, from the intuitive layout to the abundance of green spaces, is carefully crafted to enhance everyday life.

One Bangkok's masterplan is designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), a globally acclaimed architectural firm known for iconic structures such as the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. SOM has infused its expertise in sustainability, efficiency, and human-centred design into every element of One Bangkok.

With a remarkable 50% of its total land area dedicated to open and green spaces, the district breathes life into the city, offering a refreshing respite from the urban bustle. The development seamlessly connects the city's two green 'lungs', Lumphini Park and Benjakitti Park, creating an interconnected network of green spaces that improves air quality and promotes biodiversity, thus fostering a healthier, more sustainable urban environment.

Scott Duncan, Design Partner at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) said: "Designing One Bangkok goes beyond creating buildings—we've crafted an ecosystem where nature is integral to the experience. The green spaces are not an afterthought; they flow seamlessly throughout the development, enhancing well-being and fostering a deeper connection between people and the city."

Sustainability is at the core of the project, boasting cutting-edge and future-proof green smart technologies that deliver environmentally friendly and energy-saving solutions to enhance every aspect of the urban experience.

One Bangkok aims to set a new standard for sustainable urban development in Thailand in line with Bangkok 250, a visionary roadmap for the city's 250th anniversary in 2032 to elevate Bangkok's global standing through infrastructure advancements and suitability initiatives.

Its commitment to innovation has earned One Bangkok double Platinum certifications for both WiredScore and SmartScore respectively, the first real estate project in Thailand to achieve this milestone. One Bangkok is also the first project in Thailand to be awarded the prestigious LEED for Neighbourhood Development Platinum certification.
