The Reference Ekkamai - design matters
Reference Ekkamai is a new design-forward high-rise in vibrant Ekkamai.
The project is a 44-story high-rise, comprising 396 units:
- 1 bedrooms - 34.55-37.16 sqm
- 1 bedroom plus - 47.01 sqm
- 2 bedrooms 65.78-68.26 sqm
- penthouse - 157.97 sqm
The developer took inspiration of the surrounding area, which they dubbed a ‘design district’. Ekkamai is a bustling scene full of unique, colorful venues, from Japanese-themed Donki mall to Ashley Sutton-designed Iron Balls distillery, with many community hubs within easy access. Reference Ekkamai tries to offer access to those places and then to extend the vibrant life outside to vibrant living inside, connecting work, personal life and creative fulfillment in seamless modern urban lifestyle.
The design emphasis comes through in beautifully crafted common facilities and in custom furniture (the apartments come fully furnished and with home automation). The layouts are well thought-out and efficient, the units come with higher ceilings than you normally see in this class (2.7 m) and there is less units per floor than with most competitors too - not over 10-11.
2 of the floors in the building - 25 and 26th - are pet-friendly, with a dedicated elevator for tenants with pets.

Reference Ekkamai is located in the popular and happening Ekkamai district.
Ekkamai started off as one of those areas just slightly out of reach of the main central regions of the city, but still within range of them if need be: the neighboring Phrom Phong and Thonglor areas are considered one of the best and most desirable residential addresses in the city. However it came to its own prominence in recent years, with thriving food and coffee scene, some of the best bars and strong expat community. And Thonglor still remains just a street away.
👉 SUNWAY says:
It’s location in the middle of the street means that it’s a bit of a walk to BTS (1 km), however there is more to the location. See the bit above about Thonglor being nearby? The thing about Thonglor is that most of the restaurants, bars, community malls, boutique shops and other attractions are focused in the middle of the street (soi Sukhumvit 55, also known as soi Thonglor). Which makes perfect sense - Thonglor is one of the more expensive areas of Bangkok and people paying 300k+ THB/sqm for a condo are less likely to take BTS.
Soi Sukhumvit 63 (soi Ekkamai) runs parallel to soi 55 (soi Thonglor and connects to it through several side alleys. Most prominent from them - soi Thonglor 10. And Reference Ekkamai sits just 200 m from soi Thonglor 10. This means that you get immediate access to both areas and everything they have to offer.
Ekkamai in itself is a very popular with solid amenities, shopping and dining scene. Within 1.5 km from Reference you will find several international schools, international hospitals, shopping malls, golf driving range, cineplex, ice skating rink and much more.
One of the prominent thing about Ekkamai is that it is historically popular with Japanese expats and has a lot of Japanese restaurants and businesses - from plethora of Japanese restaurants and izakayas to Japanese Donki Mall (the latter is actually located just 200 m from Reference, on the corner of soi Thonglor 10).
