As KPN LAND prepares to open the doors to its crown jewel, The Diplomat 39, KANTALUK “YING” HONGLADAROM talks about how art, inspiration and a global education have inspired the project
AMID A PROPERTY boom on Sukhumvit 39, one project stands above the others: The Diplomat 39. To say the super-luxury, 31-storey property by KPN LAND is sought-after would be an understatement. Located on the doorstep of The EmDistrict, yet offering something of a sanctuary on this surging soi, The Diplomat 39 had more than 80 percent of its units swooped up within two months after the initial launch.
The project is now nearly ready to be unveiled, and anticipation is high. Behind the buzz, believes Kantaluk “Ying” Hongladarom, Chief Operating Officer of KPN LAND, is the company’s unique ethos.
“We believe in building homes,” says Ying, who is a cousin of Kris, Nop and Korn Narongdej, the three brothers at the head of family-run KPN GROUP. “We want you to feel that – whether it’s your first or second home, or even an investment – it’s not just a building. It’s part of you.”
Featuring Palladian-inspired architecture, as well as hand-selected artwork and a number of tasteful, discreet amenities, The Diplomat 39 is unlike any other home on the market. The property embraces a style that is at once timeless and adaptable to individual tastes. That style has sprung from the family’s penchant for travel, not to mention a balance of their worldviews.
