   Project Dusit Central Parkis a prime example of modern real estate development that combines "luxury + sustainability" under the concept of Biophiliawhich emphasizes the connection between humans and nature. This project is not only a landmark in the heart of Super Core CBD of Bangkok but also reflects 5 important trends that directly affect real estate in Thailand and globally.

1.  Biophilic Design     A new standard for high-end real estate
     Biophilic Desigh is becoming the "new standard" for building and living space design, especially for mixed-use projects or high-end residential projects, both in terms of marketing and consumer demand.

  • Research from Harvard and MIT supports that design with natural elements improves work efficiency, reduces stress, and creates a different living experience.
  • For luxury real estate, this is no longer a "special selling point" but a "minimum expectation" for prospective buyers and investors.

2. Green Asset     is  a competitive edge in accessing capital and creating added value.
        
Green BuildingorGreen Asset is not limited to "reducing global warming" but has a clear impact on

  • Access to finance  :  Projects with ESG approaches are often supported by banks or funds at better interest rates.
  • Property Valuation  :  Buildings with green spaces and energy efficiency tend to have higher rents and longer occupancy rates.

   In the case of Dusit Central Park, the use of Solar Roof systems, HVAC Optimization and a closed water recycling system within the project is considered a model for Green Tech Integration in Thai real estate.

3.   Urban Ecology    is  a new dimension of "location" that is more than just convenience.
         
In the past, a good location had to be close to the train or business center. But in the future, a good location must have an urban ecosystem that supports quality of life.

  • Dusit Central Park developed a 7-rai Roof Park to connect with Lumphini Park, creating a "green corridor" in the heart of Bangkok.
  • This type of project helps to enhance the surrounding area (spillover effect), resulting in an increase in the value of land in that area, as well as encouraging other developers to develop more sustainably.

4.  Consumer behavior has changed     Create a sustainable difference
       
After the COVID era, buyers prioritize

  • Health (Physical & Mental Wellness)
  • Flexible Space
  • Connecting with Nature

     Projects like Dusit Residences, which combine private green spaces, sky gardens, and natural air purification systems, have become products that meet the needs of premium buyers who are looking for "long-term quality of life."

5.  ESG     It's not just about CSR, it's a Core Strategy
     
The approach of Dusit Central Parkshows that ESG is more than just an image strategy. But it is the main structure of the project design, management and marketing.

  • E (Environmental)  :  Intelligent building systems, energy reduction, plant selection in the ecosystem
  • S (Social)  :  Designing public spaces that are accessible to all groups
  • G (Governance)  :  Public-private partnerships to promote sustainable urban development

Conclusion for real estate entrepreneurs

  • Biophilia is not just aesthetics, but a "new economic mechanism" that meets the needs of both the market and consumers.
  • New projects should considerBiophilic Designfrom the planning and financial model development stages
  • Investors are beginning to prioritizeGreen CertificationandUrban Integrationover pure design.

Dusit Central Park is an important case study that reflects how the direction of Thai real estate is changing. And whoever is ready to adapt first will have the advantage in the battlefield of the future city.
