About Taipei 101
Taipei 101 is a 101-story skyscraper in Taipei, Taiwan, standing 508 meters (1,667 ft) tall. It was formerly called the Taipei World Financial Center, and the Taipei Financial Center Corporation is its owner. Planning began in July 1997, and in the summer of 2000 the city issued a license for the 101-story tower. The formal opening took place on December 31, 2004. From its opening until 2009, when the Burj Khalifa passed it, it was officially the world's tallest building.
The design is described as postmodernist and neo-futurist, evoking traditional Asian aesthetics through a modern structure of industrial materials. It includes features that let the building withstand earthquakes and tropical storms. Its Toshiba elevators were the fastest in the world when the tower was completed, and the ride from the 5th floor to the 89th took 37 seconds. In 2011 the tower earned a LEED Platinum certificate for energy efficiency and environmental design.
Inside are offices, restaurants and shops, along with indoor and outdoor observatories. A multilevel shopping mall adjoins the tower, and its exterior carries the world's largest ruyi symbol. International media regularly use the tower as an icon of Taipei, and its New Year's Eve fireworks are a regular part of celebration broadcasts.

- Slim spire at the top
- The tower ends in a narrow spire. Printing slowly and letting layers cool helps the tip, and layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm keep it crisp.
- Stacked, flared sections
- The shaft is a stack of sections that flare outward. A larger print size keeps their edges distinct, and Full detail keeps every modeled feature.
- One piece with the ground
- Taipei 101 is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Taipei 101 takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
