Porsche Design Tower Bangkok unveils exquisite new kitchen concepts
New ‘Porsche Unseen Design Studies’ event theme launches this holiday season at Curvistan Bangkok
The multihyphenate development is a collaborative effort between Stefan Bogner, creator of the internationally-acclaimed Curves magazine, and Chanond Ruangkritya, a visionary entrepreneur and the man behind the highly-anticipated Porsche Design Tower Bangkok to be constructed a stone’s throw away from Curvistan.
Now, as the year-end holiday season approaches, the two passionate Porsche fans unveil a brand-new, limited-time event and theme at the Curvistan Bangkok: “Porsche Unseen Design Studies”.
For 20 years, Michael Mauer has led Porsche’s design vision as Vice President Style Porsche at the Porsche Design Studio in Weissach. In doing so, he granted many
a glimpse of the courageous, fascinating and surprising concept cars that have been created under his direction over almost two decades. Now, for the first time in Thailand, a collection of these “Unseen” projects are housed under one roof, making for a perfect design-themed excursion for any Porsche or automotive enthusiast.
The highlight attraction of this event is the “Vision Spyder” – a 1:1 scale interpretation of how Mauer and his team imagined a modern, small and sporty roadster might look like. Drawing inspiration from the modest sizing and lightweight ingenuity of cars designed by Porsche engineers in the 1950s, in particular the 550 Spyder that Hans Hermann drove to a win in the 1954 Carrera Panamericana, the “Vision Spyder” features a spartan cockpit, flat radiator grille over the midengine, red racing stripes and modest fins at the rear.
Visitors at Curvistan can also look forward to getting up close with other 1:3 scale model concepts such as the Macan “Vision Safari”, an SUV-turned-overland design experiment; hypercar concepts like the “Vision 918 RS” and “Vision 920”, and even the “Vision E” – a design experiment imagining what a Formula E car might look like, if homologated for customer racing.
“The Porsche Unseen collection was one of the most fulfilling projects I’ve ever done, and to be able to bring this to Curvistan Bangkok is a dream come true,” said Mr. Stefan Bogner, Founder and creative visionary behind Curves Magazine and the publisher of the “Porsche Unseen” book uncovering the many hidden treasures in the Porsche Design secret archives. “We hope design fans, Porsche fans and car enthusiasts in Thailand and beyond make Curvistan a bookmark on their next trip to Bangkok – because this is definitely one exhibition they wouldn’t want to miss!”
The “Porsche Unseen Design Studies” event theme will run from 22 November 2024 until 28 February 2025 at Curvistan Bangkok. Entry is free, and the venue is open Monday to Sunday from 08:00 to 18:00.
During the launch of the “Porsche Unseen Design Studies” theme at Curvistan Bangkok, the team at Porsche Design Tower Bangkok also unveiled three distinct culinary zones to preview the exquisite kitchen spaces that buyers of the ultra-luxury apartments along prestigious Sukhumvit 38 can look forward to.
The professional kitchen, perfect for the nuances of Asian cuisine, delivers the high heat and precision control required for techniques like wok cooking and stir-frying. Complementing this is a state-of-the-art Western kitchen, offering versatility for global culinary exploration. Extending the gourmet experience outdoors, the integrated BBQ area completes this trifecta of culinary excellence.
Elevating the culinary experience is a suite of professional-grade equipment. Designed by Porche Design in collalboration with Arclinea under the direction of renowned architect Antonio Citterio, the kitchens in each suite blend performance and elegance with electrically-powered drawers and luxury appliances.
“At Porsche Design Tower Bangkok, we are committed to redefining unparalleled luxury living,” said Chanond Ruangkritya, President and Chief Executive Officer, Ananda Development. “This unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation is evident in every detail. We meticulously selecte the world’s finest kitchen elements and envision these culinary spaces as inspiring havens for creation and entertainment, offering residents an unparalleled experience within their own luxury suites.”
The Porsche Design Tower Bangkok is the first building of its kind in Asia and the third globally. The project features 22 exclusive duplex and quadplex ‘Sky Villas’ ranging from 525 to 1,135 square meters, designed to set a new benchmark for luxury living. The groundbreaking concept is located on one of the most prestigious addresses in the capital city of Thailand. The Porsche Design Tower Bangkok distinguishes itself through a pioneering partnership between Porsche Design, renowned for its design excellence, and Ananda Development, acclaimed for its engineering prowess and meticulous attention to detail. Together, the two partners have conceived a future landmark with cutting-edge design and exquisite living spaces tailored to the authentic passions of its residents. Construction is set to be completed at the end of 2028.

Vinhomes advances urban development platform amid global shift toward nature-positive investment
With a land bank exceeding 295 million square meters, nearly 650,000 residents across its integrated townships, and record equivalent revenue of VND183.1 trillion (US$6.94 billion) in 2025, the company has demonstrated its capacity to plan, finance, deliver and operate large-scale cities with remarkable consistency.
For more than two millennia, humanity has celebrated its greatest achievements through the idea of “wonders,” from the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World to the New7Wonders of Nature, which in 2011 recognized sites such as the Amazon Rainforest and Vietnam’s own Ha Long Bay for their untouched natural beauty.
Today, a fourth wave is emerging: one defined not by human creations set apart from nature, nor by landscapes left untouched, but by developments where urbanization actively enhances natural ecosystems. This philosophy, combined with Vinhomes’ operational scale, has positioned the company at the forefront of that shift, offering global institutional investors a proven model that is gaining recognition across Asia.
Nature-Positive Development Defines Vinhomes’ Urban Philosophy
At the core of Vinhomes’ approach is a fundamental departure from traditional real estate development; the company approaches urban development as an integrated process of environmental enhancement, infrastructure creation and community building.
This philosophy is evident across several landmark projects. At Vinhomes Green Paradise in Can Gio, built on reclaimed coastal land, modern infrastructure coexists with active ecological restoration, creating new living environments while supporting long-term environmental resilience.
At Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long, the urban masterplan has been designed specifically to complement the UNESCO-recognized Ha Long Bay, one of the world’s most celebrated natural wonders, creating a space where urban life and natural heritage mutually enrich one another.
For institutional investors, this nature-positive orientation reflects a broader strategic shift. Long-term capital is increasingly flowing toward developers capable of creating urban ecosystems that generate value over decades, not merely delivering projects on a transactional basis. Vinhomes’ ability to embed sustainability, ecological regeneration and climate resilience into its masterplans aligns with the evolving expectations of global asset owners seeking both financial returns and environmental impact.
Proven Execution And Operational Scale Build Investor Confidence
In real estate, vision carries little weight without the ability to execute. This is where Vinhomes has established one of its strongest competitive advantages. While many developers concentrate their portfolios within a limited number of cities or regions, Vinhomes has successfully replicated its large-scale urban development model across Vietnam, delivering integrated townships from north to south while maintaining consistent quality, execution speed and operational standards.
The company’s 2025 performance underscores this capability. By year-end, Vinhomes had delivered more than 34,000 apartments, villas and shophouses, achieving record equivalent revenue of VND183.1 trillion (US$6.94 billion), a 29% year-on-year increase that exceeded its annual target. Net profit reached VND43.3 trillion (US$1.6 billion), up 24%, while sales bookings nearly doubled to VND205.3 trillion (US$7.9 billion). Unrecognized contracted sales of VND186.4 trillion (US$7.1 billion) provide exceptional revenue visibility for the years ahead.
Beyond financial metrics, Vinhomes’ operational scale is evidenced by nearly 650,000 residents now living across its developments nationwide, forming one of Southeast Asia’s largest integrated residential communities. This scale demonstrates not only the company’s ability to build projects but also its capacity to create functioning urban ecosystems capable of sustaining long-term economic and social activity.
The company’s land bank, exceeding 295 million square meters as of December 31, 2025, represents Vietnam’s largest and is strategically positioned across major metropolitan areas and regions benefiting from accelerating urbanization, industrial development and tourism growth. This extensive reserve provides a substantial pipeline for future development while supporting sustainable long-term growth.
Vinhomes’ operational excellence is further validated by internationally recognized certifications including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and SA8000, reflecting global standards in quality management, environmental performance, occupational health and safety, and social responsibility. The company’s market position, Vietnam’s largest listed real estate company by market capitalization at approximately US$19.4 billion, and the country’s second-largest listed enterprise overall, reinforces its institutional credibility. Its brand, valued at an estimated US$1.6 billion by Brand Finance, ranks among Vietnam’s Top 10 Most Valuable Brands.
For international investors, these indicators point to something larger than financial success alone. They reflect a company that has evolved beyond traditional real estate development into a trusted urban development platform, one capable of planning, financing, delivering and operating large-scale cities with remarkable consistency.
If the first three waves of human wonders celebrated extraordinary achievements of engineering or nature, the emerging fourth wave may well be defined by developments that elevate nature itself, creating places where environmental restoration, economic growth and human prosperity reinforce one another.
That vision demands proven execution, long-term thinking and institutional credibility. These qualities explain why an increasing number of global investors are viewing Vinhomes as one of Asia’s most compelling long-term urban development platforms.
