The hotel operator may also form a more intimate alliance with the developer to provide a full range of services and activities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although branded residences have been around for nearly a century, it was only since the 1980s that the market has grown significantly. North America is the largest market for branded residences with a 32% market share, the Asia Pacific comes a close second with 30% while Europe is third with 13%. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Southeast Asia, the successful sale of some 30 villas of Amanpuri in Phuket in 1988 led to the subsequent evolution of the Aman brand, the first branded residences in Southeast Asia. In 1995, the launch of Four Seasons Chiang Mai introduced Thailand\u2019s first branded residences in collaboration with an international hotel chain. Since then, branded hotel chains continued to develop and has remained the most dominant form of branded residences in the region. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For those who dream of having the best in luxury living, a branded residence is the perfect answer. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In light of new entrants in the market, the meaning behind branded residences has taken on an expanded definition in recent years. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By marrying residential real estate with brands from other sectors such as luxury fashion brands such as Armani and Bvlgari, jewelry, interior design and automotive brands such as Porsche, new forms of branded residences have evolved. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A brand is a stamp of quality recognized and cherished by buyers, and is one that comes with a premium. It was reported that buyers were willing to pay premiums of up to 132 percent in Bangkok and 69 percent in Kuala Lumpur over non-branded dwellings. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With a growing market and higher expectations from consumers, branded residences will have to continually differentiate themselves in order to be able to attract investors and maintain their premium over luxury residences. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the newest branded residences in the market is currently in construction in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. <\/span><b>YOO8 serviced by Kempinski <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">features not one but two power brands \u2013 international design studio YOO founded by John Hitchcox and Philippe Starck and Europe\u2019s oldest and most established hotel group, Kempinski, which was founded in 1897.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-40443 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/02\/YOO-8-RESIDENCES.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"515\" height=\"916\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/02\/YOO-8-RESIDENCES.jpg 398w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/02\/YOO-8-RESIDENCES-169x300.jpg 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em>IMAGE Kempinski&#8217;s website<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">YOO8 serviced by Kempinski is part of 8 Conlay by Malaysian developer KSK Land, and features interior concepts by Steve Leung and Kelly Hoppen of YOO studio and in-house services by Kempinski.
