Travelman\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Blink and you\u2019ll miss it. Another sliver of horizon vanishes behind the latest high-rise in the Sathorn and Silom areas of Bangkok. Historically home to the city\u2019s central business district, these twin neighbourhoods have been in constant flux for more than a century. Back in the late 1800s, they were little more than a rural patchwork of paddy fields. But nowadays it is not rice stalks reaching for the sky, but buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Two developments represent the latest evolution of the Thai capital\u2019s CBD. Dusit Central Park, under construction on the nine-acre former site of the iconic Dusit Thani Hotel, will upon completion next year encompass three skyscrapers, including a new hotel, luxury condos, and an office tower. The structures will be interconnected by an eight-storey retail podium that has a rooftop park, combining commercial, residential, and leisure spaces within a single development.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of development, however, pales compared to nearby One Bangkok. Located on the other side of Lumpini Park, this goliath USD3.9-billion undertaking will eventually feature five Grade-A office towers, three luxury hotels and serviced apartment towers, and four retail precincts, totalling 1.83 million square metres of gross floor area. Notably, the RitzCarlton Hotel will grace the first 25 floors of a 50-storey office tower, marking its debut in the city.<\/p>\n<p>These mega mixed-use projects were conceived well before the pandemic fundamentally altered the real estate scene. But the timing could not have been better. In recent years, investor and homeowner trends have shifted considerably. Increasingly, they are recognising the value of living within a community that is self-sufficient not only in terms of basic amenities but also comprehensive social infrastructure.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40815\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40815\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40815\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/shutterstock-2268188407-6788dde9c5cb2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/shutterstock-2268188407-6788dde9c5cb2.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/shutterstock-2268188407-6788dde9c5cb2-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/shutterstock-2268188407-6788dde9c5cb2-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/shutterstock-2268188407-6788dde9c5cb2-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40815\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Integrated projects like Thailand&#8217;s One Bangkok are seen as antidotes to urban sprawl and traffic congestion.

Not simply buoyed by buyer preferences, these all-encompassing large-scale projects are often antidotes for grappling with the shared problems of spiralling urban sprawl and traffic congestion.<\/p>\n<p>Such developments can also help cities absorb the shocks and stresses that accompany pandemics, disasters, and climate change, according to Indonesian politician Bambang Susantono, who currently serves as the head of the Nusantara Capital City Authority.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>By serving diverse populations and a wider range of functions, mixed-use environments create dynamic and inclusive spaces that people want to be part of<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cUrban infrastructure and services have struggled to keep up with Asia\u2019s transformation over the past 50 years,\u201d he wrote in a recent Asian Development Bank article. \u201cBut in today\u2019s world, and to deliver a better world for future generations, falling behind is no longer an option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yet mixed-use projects are also proving to be popular beyond city centres and suburbia. Traditionally a tourism-reliant island, Phuket was forced to diversify during the pandemic, with the island\u2019s major hotel investors shaking up their business models. The spike in interest in its real estate market subsequently sparked a surge in mixed-use developments. According to Bill Barnett, founder of hospitality consultant C9 Hotelworks, of the island\u2019s current 1,500 registered hotels, about 50 percent are now incorporating a real estate element.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHospitality groups use branded residences; there are hotels but there\u2019s also a real estate element. We\u2019re seeing more and more developers using this mixed-use model, and it makes a lot more sense,\u201d he says. \u201cYou\u2019re mitigating your development risk, you\u2019re getting early cash flow, and a better return.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Call them townships, integrated communities, or mixed-use developments, but the popularity of projects comprising hospitals, schools, retail, and green space, amongst myriad other amenities, is inevitably encouraging developers to become more innovative about how they design and build commercial and residential real estate.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, we round up some of the latest award-winning mixed-use developments from around the region.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summarecon Bekasi by Summarecon Agung<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40801\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1928\" height=\"1228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7.webp 1928w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7-400x255.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7-600x382.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7-768x489.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/screenshot-2568-01-16-at-172439-6788df5c826a7-1536x978.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1928px) 100vw, 1928px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Summarecon Bekasi is situated at the nexus of Greater Jakarta\u2019s latest expansion, and while seclusion from the urban sprawl may be the obvious drawcard, convenience remains paramount.
