Minecraft Thailand City Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok
Minecraft Thailand City Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok
Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok is one of the most beautiful skyscrapers in the most exciting city in the world- Bangkok. But why is it shaped like something from Minecraft Thailand City? And what’s inside?
Concept
This beautiful pixel design concept is an exploration of bringing living spaces inside and outside closer together. This echoes the local Thai culture of living in a fluid condition, between interior and exterior spaces. These possibilities are carved into the skyscraper with a pixelated ribbon swirling around the exterior, peeling back its surface layer to expose an inner layer
A band of shifted, box-like elements breaks up the surface of the building and creates balconies and terraces with views of the city. This is Minecraft Thailand City Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok.
The glass walls on Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok are divided horizontally and vertically, adding to the building’s “pixelated” appearance
Acommodation
The building’s accommodation contains hotel, retail and residences. This includes 200 units of The Ritz-Carlton Condos priced between 1 million to 17 million USD per unit containing some of the most expensive and luxurious condos in Bangkok.
It also features a rooftop observation deck. The glass floor observation deck is cantilevered out of the building to give visits views directly down 300m. And of course the views down and across one the some of the most beautiful and exotic city views I’ve ever seen where you can take in the views of the majestic Chao Phraya River. to downtown Bangkok.
Taking 5 years to construct and finishing at the end of 2016 it was the tallest building in Thailand for a short period . At 314 m high.
There is 76 floors in total, including the observation deck.
Marketed by PACE Development, Mahanakhon Tower Bangkok its the first building in Thailand to be marketed in the Middle East and also Hong Kong and Singapore
I just love this building – it’s now so iconic to Bangkok and simply makes a wonderful, futuristic appearance to the skyline and shows to the world that Bangkok is serious about design and architecture.
MahaNakhon tower was designed by German architect Ole Scheeren, who is known for designing many irregularly shaped buildings, like CCTV Headquarters in Beijing.
