The MahaNakhon in Bangkok minus a few pixels….a fantastic example of new ideas being explored in contemporary skyscraper design. At 77 floors and 314m it is currently the tallest building in the Kingdom of Thailand.

The card says it all really!? We LOVE this card by Melbourne company Things by Bean.
