SEAM has designed architectural lighting for Bangkok's King Power MahaNakhon Tower.

MahaNakhon by Buro Ole Scheeren is Bangkok's tallest building and landmark, with SEAM's lighting completed late-2018.

A programmable system animates the tower's signature eroded geometry to follow the city's daily activity cycle, echoing the busy horizontal vectors of the evening rush-hour, and eventually receding, twinkling, into the night sky.

Visible throughout the city, the illuminated MahaNakhon has become a night-and-day icon for Bangkok, and a glowing emblem for Bangkok's emerging status as the southeast Asia design capital.

This project has been longlisted in the architectural lighting design category of Dezeen Awards 2020.
