RML, a leader in luxury and ultra-luxury real estate development, showcases the standout features of ‘OCC (One City Centre)’, the tallest office building in Thailand, located near BTS Phloen Chit. Developed under the concept of ‘Reimagine Your World’, OCC has recently welcomed CBRE, the world's largest commercial real estate and investment advisory firm, as its new tenant. They revealed the reasons behind CBRE's choice of OCC as their new headquarters in Thailand and appointed CBRE as the sole agent for tenant sourcing and building management for OCC.

Mr. Korn Narongdej, CEO of RML (Raimon Land Public Company Limited), stated, “RML is pleased to welcome CBRE as the new tenant of OCC. CBRE's presence here reinforces our confidence that we have developed OCC to meet the needs under the concept of ‘Reimagine Your World’, catering to both work and lifestyle. The building features comprehensive functional designs for work, along with uniquely curated cafes and restaurants, and a luxurious rooftop restaurant for relaxation and exploration in a prime location in the Phloen Chit area. This is why CBRE chose OCC as their new headquarters in Thailand. Additionally, we have CBRE, with extensive experience in leasing and managing luxury Grade A office buildings worldwide, as our Sole Agent for tenant sourcing and services, resulting in a very positive response for OCC, with approximately 70% of the office and retail space already attracting interest from clients.”

The building's image and location reflect its identity

Ms. Rungrat Veerapakarnkun, Managing Director of CBRE (Thailand) Co., Ltd. commented, “CBRE is a real estate advisory firm with branches in over 100 countries worldwide, and we set our office standards in each country. Choosing an office building reflects the identity of the company to clients, partners, external parties, and our employees, including the talent we wish to attract in the future. Selecting a Grade A office building with a good image enhances the company's reputation. Furthermore, a key factor in choosing an office building is its strategic location, which not only indicates a good site but also encompasses the surrounding environment and available amenities. For all these reasons, CBRE chose OCC as our new headquarters, marking our first headquarters move in 20 years. We decided to relocate to OCC because it meets all our criteria, including its central location in Phloen Chit, which our employees are already familiar with, as it is near our previous office. OCC also incorporates modern technology to facilitate and promote well-being for tenants, emphasizing Employee Centricity, which is very important to us as we strive to enhance the quality of life for all CBRE employees.”

From CBRE's perspective, OCC meets the quality office building standards based on the STAR principles:

  • Sustainability: Recognized with international sustainability certifications such as LEED and Fitwel.
  • Technology: Equipped with technology that addresses comfort and hygiene, including touchless technology.
  • Amenity: Abundant amenities and convenient transportation options, including public transit and private vehicles.
  • Resilience: A building designed with flexibility for hybrid work and the needs of a new generation of workers.

Highlights of the OCC building

Ms. Rungrat mentioned the building's standout features, saying, “The first impressive aspect of OCC is the view. When you enter the building, you can see the views of the Netherlands and the United States embassies. From a high vantage point on the opposite side of the building, you can also see Lumphini Park and Bang Kachao. Not every office building in central Bangkok offers such a remarkable and open view. Another equally impressive factor is that it serves as a ‘lifestyle destination’ that combines renowned restaurants, cafes, and a Sky Bar in one place, making it both a networking venue and a happy workplace for building users and external visitors.”

Additionally, Ms. Rungrat further stated, “Another distinctive feature of OCC is that it has been developed by a major real estate company with expertise, namely RML, a leader in luxury and ultra-luxury real estate development in Thailand, and Mitsubishi Estate, one of Japan's leading and most reputable real estate developers. This is a strength of the building that helps attract tenants. As CBRE is the Sole Agent for OCC, we are confident that this building will be a focal point and can attract tenants from various industries. CBRE will leverage its deep market knowledge and understanding of tenant needs to fill the rental space and attract both Thai and multinational companies to be part of the building, including firms in finance, consulting, IT, and tourism, among others.”

OCC is the tallest office building in Thailand, standing at 275.76 meters, developed under the concept of “Reimagine Your World” to provide superior office solutions for tenants through smart technology. It is located on a 6-rai plot directly opposite Central Embassy, just a 2-minute walk from BTS Phloen Chit station, with a sky bridge connecting the building directly to the station, which will be completed by the end of this year. It is also only 200 meters from the Chalerm Mahanakorn Expressway entrance and exit. Tenants can choose from a variety of rental space sizes, as the design allows for flexibility and adaptability to future changing needs, with options for small or large offices across multiple floors. Currently, tenants can begin moving into the space.
