With its green credentials and high-tech trimmings embodying modern office development, The PARQ provides an urban oasis in Bangkok for its tenants

Healthy Working Culture

In a garden at The PARQ in Bangkok, a pithy quote is debossed on the ground. It reads: “A healthy outside starts from the inside.” The phrase encapsulates the new mixed-use development. The THB8bn ($255m) project, being developed by TCC Assets Co., Ltd. with Frasers Property Holdings (Thailand) Co., Ltd. as development manager, is tracking for both LEED and WELL certifications—a duality rare for mixed-use Bangkok projects of its scale.

With The PARQ, TCC Assets crusades for what the project’s slogan calls “Life Well Balanced”, offering urbanites a sustainable, healthy spot to earn a crust.

“Many people spend more time at their workplace than they do at home,” says Kamolnai Chaixanien, executive director of TCC Assets (Thailand) Co., Ltd. “According to our extensive research, these individuals are looking for a working environment where they can experience a more effective, enjoyable way to have a better work-life balance.”

TCC Group gained the rights to develop The PARQ on a 38,400-square-metre (24 rai) leasehold plot owned by Thailand’s Crown Property Bureau at the corner of the Rama IV and Ratchadaphisek roads, also known as the Klongtoey intersection. “PARQ” pays homage to the verdant landmarks nearby: Benjakitti Park and the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre, whose namesake MRT station exits straight onto the development.

Together with neighbouring developments like FYI Centre and ThaiBev Quarter, The PARQ adds to the Queen Sirikit Centre node, a blossoming MICE hub with TCC Group at its helm.
