Thailand: Real estate group Asset World Corp (AWC) has launched its Co-Living Collective: Empower Future scheme at The Empire, a Bangkok mixed-use scheme.
AWC has invested more than $30 million in the project, which has 1,500 square metres of coliving space, with a living room, a communal open kitchen, dining area, kids’ room and pets’ hotel.
The Co-living Collective will also have a food and beverage rooftop in collaboration with AWC Infinite Lifestyle (AWI), which will be completed in 2023. The Residence at the Empire Co-living will have a combination of workspaces with complimentary service. The design will include shared communal spaces for individual work, group discussions and meetings, a body-mind zone with a nap lounge, showers and changing rooms. Other features include a swing floor option, fully or partly furnished workspaces with materials and equipment tailored to tenants’ needs, such as flexible partitions, modular furniture, furniture and design and decorating advice services for convenience during construction.
Wallapa Traisorat, chief executive officer and president, at AWC said: “Today, new generations of working people are increasingly seeking personal value and purpose at work while striking a balance between work and lifestyle. The roles of physical workplaces have therefore become more multi-faceted to facilitate connection, collaboration and innovation as well as to promote positive employee experiences and retain talents.”
The Empire is on track to achieve LEED Certification, the standard for sustainable green buildings, and WELL standard to promote the health and wellness of occupants and visitors.
“The Empire strives to become an empowering corporate address, with uniquely curated lifestyle spaces where business and recreation become one by blending Bangkok’s dynamism with a wide range of unparalleled service offerings. AWC is committed in building a better future, we believe the Empire will play a key role in driving Thailand as a global destination for international work force. Once the launch is fully completed, the new Empire will become an ideal urban destination that fosters new professional and social circles of like-minded and trend-leading yet socially responsible people and businesses. We will build a better future together with The Empire Co-Living Collective, empower future,” said Wallapa.
The Ascott Ltd is also due to open a coliving property in Bangkok, lyf Riverside Bangkok.
