Thailand’s Tallest Building, Designed by Buro Ole Scheeren, Opens

with Light Show
Thailand’s new tallest building, MahaNakhon , has opened to the public with
a spectacular light show highlighting the pixilated-design of the 314 meter tall
building. Designed by Buro Ole Scheeren , the 77-story mixed-use skyscraper
contains space for a hotel, retail, bars, restaurants and an observation deck, as
well as 200 condominium units managed by Ritz-Carlton Residences with
unparalleled views out onto the Bangkok skyline and beyond. The
building’s distinct appearance is created through carving a pixelated spiral
up the building, creating “an architecture that encloses and protects its in
habitants while revealing the inner life of their city”.
