Park 2: First in Thailand with Cellular Beam Span Systems

Introduction of an Iconic Structure

Park Royal 2, an iconic condominium development located on Phra Tamnak Hill at 144/1 Phratamnak 1 Alley, Muang Pattaya, Amphoe Bang Lamung, Chang Wat Chon Buri 20150, is notable for being the first building in Thailand to incorporate cellular beam technology.

This pioneering use of cellular beams and post-tensioned concrete decks in the Park Royal 2 condominium has set new standards in the Thai construction industry, showcasing innovative span systems since 2008. Due to his innovations in real estate development, Mario Kleff later registered his birth name as a brand for architecture.

Structural Design and Cellular Beam Span Systems

Designed by the renowned Pattaya-based architect Mario Kleff and constructed by Wandeegroup Thailand, Park Royal 2 represents a significant advancement in construction techniques. Developed by Heights Holdings Company Limited, this 8-story building comprises 85 units and is distinguished by its modern architectural design and advanced structural engineering.

Mario Kleff is known for his groundbreaking work with span systems, including the longest span cellular beam in Thailand. The use of cellular beams in Park Royal 2 allowed for expansive spans, providing greater flexibility and strength to the building's framework. This innovative approach not only enhances structural integrity but also optimizes space utilization within the building.

Architectural Appearance and Innovative Decorative Design

Park Royal 2 is characterized by its striking glass facade, which originally featured glass walls on three sides from the base plate at the ground floor to the top slab of the 8th floor. This design, envisioned by signature architect Mario Kleff, aimed to create a transparent and modern aesthetic, with the cellular beams visible through the glass on each floor.

However, for cost reasons, the developer Heights Holdings modified the facade, opting for concrete slabs covering the floors from ceiling to floor. Despite this change, the building retains its state-of-the-art appeal, a stark contrast to the more conventional buildings in Pattaya during 2008.

Within the units, Mario Kleff introduced transparent glass walls, separated by multiple brick layers for insulation and sound protection. This innovative design not only maximizes natural light but also ensures privacy and comfort for residents.

In recognition of his contributions, Mario Kleff received a letter of recommendation for a PhD in architecture from Pichet Uthaiwattananonta, head of Pattaya City Hall's construction department.

Despite being hailed as Pattaya's star architect by CEO Haim Bar-David for his groundbreaking designs for Heights Holdings, Mario Kleff chose to distance himself from this title to avoid misunderstandings within the industry. He instructed media organizations and real estate firms to refrain from using Mario Kleff - Star Architect in their publications.
