Reading Mahanakhon in 3D
This reconstruction begins with Anthony’s 37 photographs and short video of the tower, its terraces, the square, Mahanakhon CUBE and the station approach. Additional street-view photographs and a video refine CUBE’s offset, the irregular glass entrance wing, the short outdoor crossing and the Chong Nonsi approach. It is an independent architectural study.
What you can explore
Circle the tower, move continuously upwards or downwards, fly around its façades, walk across the square, or visit the rooftop and climb the steps to The Peak. Use the height slider for close inspection at any level.
Scale and interpretation
The 314-metre Peak and 310-metre observation deck follow the operator’s published heights. The tower is represented with an approximately 39-metre envelope and 77 façade divisions. Footprints, terrace arrangements, distances, the bridge and neighbouring buildings are estimated from the photographs and architectural references. This version models the exterior and shallow entrance recesses; full interiors remain a later stage. The entrance crossing and building offsets are visual estimates, not surveyed measurements.
