Bangkok, Thailand, April 16, 2026 / TRAVELINDEX / City Dynamic presents A House in the Making, a film that brings together the creative teams behind Upper House Residences Bangkok and The Wireless Residences by Upper House.

The film offers an insightful look into the mindset, craftsmanship and collaboration behind the world's first Upper House branded residences, located on a rare, fully owned plot of land on Bangkok's prestigious Wireless Road.

The film, which involved Foster + Partners, BAR Studio, PIA Interior and P Landscape, shows how architecture, interior design, landscaping and service work together to create two different houses – designed for living, not for spectacle.

Bringing the upper house home

The film opens with the philosophy of Upper House: houses instead of hotels. Upper House, known for its personal, informal, and attentive hospitality, is now applying this philosophy to private living for the first time.

“This was a truly creative collaboration,” says Toby Smith, Chief Commercial Officer of Swire Hotels. “Upper House was never about making a statement. It’s about creating places that feel authentic and personal. Real homes. And of course, there’s the service – intuitive, unconventional, and based on genuine human connection.”

Architecture: Hospitality down to the smallest detail

Under the direction of Foster + Partners and their local subsidiary F&P (Thailand) Ltd., the architecture draws inspiration from the proportions and spatial tranquility of traditional Thai villas, reinterpreting them in a contemporary style. The buildings are characterized by comfort, light, and openness, and offer panoramic views of Lumphini Park and Benjakitti Park.

“Our aim was to bring hospitality to the realm of ultra-luxury living,” explains Roland Schnizer, lead architect at Foster + Partners. “It’s about coming home and finding peace – a garden on Wireless Road that feels both unexpected and meticulously planned.”

Interior design: Two paths to a healthy life

The interior design of the Upper House Residences Bangkok, created by BAR Studio, focuses on holistic living. The spaces are designed to seamlessly transition between private retreat and communal life, prioritizing natural light, well-being, and understated materials.

In Upper House's Wireless Residences, PIA Interior brings a perspective shaped by multigenerational living. The apartments are thoughtfully designed to accommodate families of varying sizes and life stages. The floor plans allow residents to have their own private spaces, while the communal areas naturally bring the family together.

Landscape: Living with the garden

P Landscape's landscaping is based on the idea of ​​a house in a garden. Paths, plantings, and open spaces are arranged to create an intimate and personal atmosphere, gently connecting the site to Bangkok's Green Mile and the surrounding parks.

The design inspiration film reflects a common goal of the design partners: to create two houses that feel connected to their location, are shaped by people, and are made to last.

“A project like this comes along only once in a generation,” says Casey Au, co-managing director of City Dynamic. “These aren’t products. These are homes – carefully designed and built to be lived in for many years.”

“When we first entered the site,” adds Thomas Woolsey, co-managing director of City Dynamic, “we immediately realized how rare this opportunity was. It allowed us to create not just one, but two distinct forms of housing – each with its own character, but united by the Upper House mindset.”

The Upper House Residences Bangkok and the Wireless Residences by Upper House are located in the heart of Bangkok's central business district, just steps away from the city's main shopping malls, five-star hotels, international schools and embassies.

The Upper House Residences Bangkok project, currently under construction, comprises 156 residential units in a 52-story building, while The Wireless Residences by Upper House comprises 239 residential units in a 71-story tower.

The completion of both towers is planned in several phases starting in 2029; the Upper House will be responsible for their management.
