1 Bedroom Condo for sale or rent at KHUN by YOO inspired by Starck

KHUN by YOO inspired by Starck is a 53.5 m² one-bedroom, one-bathroom condo in Thonglor, Bangkok’s celebrated Sukhumvit Soi 55 district. Co-designed by the Philippe Starck-led YOO studio, the unit marries Haussmann-inspired architectural detailing with a sharp contemporary palette, creating a residence that feels both refined and genuinely liveable.

Living Area

Ornate white plaster cornicing and full-height wall panelling frame the living space, which is anchored by an ivory sofa, a sculptural dark coffee table and a richly grained cherry-wood floor. A brass branch chandelier with globe bulbs draws the eye upward, while floor-to-ceiling glazing pours natural light across the room and opens directly onto the city skyline.

Dining Area

A round marble-top dining table seating four sits adjacent to the living zone beneath the same globe chandelier. Soft bouclé-upholstered chairs in warm grey complement the cream wall tones, and a large oil-effect canvas in navy and teal provides a considered focal point on the panelled wall behind.

Kitchen

The kitchen runs along one wall in a deliberate tonal contrast: floor-to-ceiling matte-black cabinetry is paired with a veined marble splashback and matching stone worktop. Under-cabinet lighting highlights the stonework, and a slimline wine cooler is integrated beneath the counter, keeping the overall composition sleek and uncluttered.

Balcony

A full-width balcony with a glass-panel balustrade extends the living space outdoors. A pair of reclined chairs face an open mid-rise cityscape — terracotta rooftops in the foreground give way to Bangkok’s tower skyline — making it a genuinely pleasant spot at any hour of the day.

The Thonglor Location

Thonglor — Sukhumvit Soi 55 — is widely regarded as Bangkok’s most cosmopolitan neighbourhood, earning its reputation as the city’s ‘Little Japan’ through its concentration of Japanese restaurants, boutique cafés and independent retailers. BTS Thong Lor on the Sukhumvit Line connects residents to the broader city with ease, while The Commons community market and Donki Mall Thonglor are both close by for daily dining and lifestyle needs.
