T (T), the Bangkok office of the global design company P&T group, has been successful with five different architectural projects across Bangkok. Piti Ekkamai is in a prominent city-centre site and forms an iconic development for high-rise residential living. The project comprises two 38-storey residential towers above a podium containing 879 apartments. These are connected by a 22-metre sky bridge at roof top levels. This forms expansive wellness and recreational facilities including a 50-metre sky swimming pool and a stunning roof garden with a folding origami sculpted roof feature. Its design brief called for a residential development focusing on a good life experience. Modern tropical architecture and the provision of flexible unit planning in various sizes has minimised the number of units per floor for privacy. A separate, three-storey facility building also provides coworking space and a commercial area.
