Sansiri collaborates with Bangkok University’s Faculty of Architecture to showcase the work of new designers, winning the BUD :D AWARD for their design of the common area at D Condo, addressing the needs of the target audience and reinforcing their position as a leader in the campus condo market.

  • Sansiri emphasizes its leadership in design, extending the concept of Sansiri Made for Future, providing opportunities for students from Bangkok University to showcase their potential and inspire future developments under the theme “Design for Every Lifestyle, Well-rounded.”
  • In collaboration with the Faculty of Architecture at Bangkok University, they showcased the work of new designers, winning the BUD :D AWARD, aimed at creating designs that truly meet the needs of the campus condo target group.
  • They plan to welcome new generations for internships with Sansiri, incorporating the award-winning designs into the development of the common area, with the students' work being part of the design concept for a new D Condo project opposite Bangkok University, set to launch a new phase at the end of 2024.

Mr. Ongart Suwanakul, Senior Assistant Managing Director of Condominium Project Development at Sansiri Public Company Limited, stated that Sansiri has announced the winners of the BUD :D AWARD, a collaboration between Sansiri and the Faculty of Architecture at Bangkok University, inviting students from all years to submit designs for a 1 rai (1,600 sq.m.) common area for D Condo, as part of the development concept that truly meets the needs of real users, based on the principle of “Residents at the Center of Design.”

  • The winner of the BUD :D AWARD is the design “Personality” by Ms. Warisara Suasri, which responds to the diverse lifestyles of individuals today, addressing privacy, social interaction, attitudes, and differing perspectives, reflecting the lives of three groups: Extroverts, Introverts, and Ambiverts, living harmoniously in the condominium project.
  • The Popular Vote award, voted by students and staff of Bangkok University, went to the design “Utopian” by Ms. Sawapak Phonlekh and Mr. Thonthan Saengsuwan, based on the concept “When the owner is away, the pets are happy,” highlighting the joy of pets and residents through design that accommodates the growing trend of pet ownership, especially in the area surrounding Bangkok University (Rangsit), where pet-friendly condos are limited. They aimed to create a space that fosters interaction between people and pets, designing nearly all areas and common spaces for shared activities, such as a rooftop area where pets can enjoy time with their owners, featuring a pet playground for exercise while owners work, relax, or exercise, because “Everyone is the heart of the condominium.”

“Under the competition theme ‘Design for Every Lifestyle, Well-rounded,’ the students from BU’s Faculty of Architecture were able to create designs for the common area by applying design knowledge from their classrooms, including concepts, theories, and other relevant aspects, into real-world applications, which is a professional skill development opportunity for them to create designs that meet the needs of real users in line with development goals.

The “D Condo” brand focuses on developing products that meet the needs of actual residents in affordable condos through the concept 'Stay Well-rounded, condos designed for a well-rounded life,' reflecting a well-being lifestyle in locations that offer privacy and prioritize safety for the predominantly student residents.

The D Condo brand has already achieved success with projects such as D Condo Campus Resort Rangsit, D Condo Campus Resort Dome Rangsit, D Condo Hideaway, D Condo Shine near Thammasat University, and D Condo Hype opposite Bangkok University, all successfully selling out on pre-sale days, reinforcing its position as the leading brand in the Campus Condo market,” Mr. Ongart stated.

In addition to a total prize value of over 100,000 baht, the winners will also prepare to intern with the design team from Sansiri, and the most suitable and responsive design concepts will be incorporated into the design of the common area for the new D Condo project opposite Bangkok University, which is set to launch soon, reinforcing Sansiri's commitment to developing Campus Condos that truly meet the needs of Bangkok University students.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rithirong Chutaphrutthikorn, Dean of the Faculty of Architecture at Bangkok University, expressed congratulations to the award-winning students. The important aspect of this platform is the opportunity to engage in real design challenges with open-ended prompts for innovative new ideas (New Idea) that can design the common areas of condominium projects both inside and outside the building to truly meet the needs of residents. Additionally, the concepts from the award-winning designs will serve as guidelines for future common area designs for D Condo projects. Furthermore, the winning works will have the opportunity to intern with the design team from Sansiri, a company renowned for its residential design at a national level, and ranked among the top 10 companies that young people aspire to work with, alongside global leaders like Google, LINE, and Apple, making it a proud achievement for students and a valuable work experience for their future.

The BUD :D AWARD project is part of the Sansiri Made for Future initiative, providing opportunities for students from Bangkok University to showcase their potential and inspire future developments. Additionally, Sansiri has a vision for developing products and services under the concept 'YOU Are Made For Life,' which builds on the 'YOU-Centric' philosophy, emphasizing care, understanding, and prioritizing the evolving needs of people today, placing “YOU” at the center and as the inspiration for product and service development to deliver happiness in a way that is truly “you.” The distinctive features that set Sansiri apart from competitors are design and quality, which are the core principles in developing the “D Condo” brand, solidifying its position as the leading brand in the “Campus Condo” market.
