About King Power Mahanakhon
King Power Mahanakhon, which used to be named MahaNakhon, is a skyscraper with mixed uses. It stands in the central business district of Bangkok, Thailand, in the Silom/Sathon area. It is a square tower with glass curtain walls, and a spiral band of cuboid cuts runs up one side. This "pixelated" ribbon peels back the outer layer to reveal an inner layer, which forms balconies that look out over the city. The tower holds a hotel, retail space and residences, plus a rooftop observation deck.
On May 4, 2016, the CTBUH named it Thailand's tallest building, at 314.2 meters (1,031 ft) and 77 floors. It held that record only until 2018, when the Magnolias Waterfront Residences at ICONSIAM surpassed it at 317 meters. Ole Scheeren, a German architect who had been a partner at Office for Metropolitan Architecture, was part of the development team with Thai company Pace Development.
The groundbreaking ceremony took place on June 20, 2011. The tower was topped off at 314 meters in April 2015 and completed in 2016. After prices changed during construction, the total project value came to 21 billion baht (US$620 million). King Power group bought the building from PACE Development in April 2018, and the name changed. Bangkok's ceremonial name includes Mahanakhon, meaning "large (or great) city".

- A spiral of small boxes
- The notched spiral on the sides is built from many small box shapes. Print friendly adapts them to the print scale; Full detail keeps every one, which suits a larger print or a fine nozzle.
- A tall, slim shaft
- The tower is tall and narrow compared with its footprint. Printing slowly with good cooling, and layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm, helps the notched sides come out clean.
- One piece with the ground
