How the tallest building in Malaysia was designed | Exchange 106

[@HxAlireza]

Proud to see an Iranian architect designing Exchange 106 💕💖 One of my most fav buildings in KL.

[@sulaimandaud2696]

Great...

[@DarrenHale]

Love Malaysia, thanks for sharing! 'Over designing' very true..

[@elektrioband8543]

Very true, sometimes simple is best!

[@faiznordin1193]

I used to hate this building cause it doesnt look amazing. After the architect explained it, now I understand why they made the exterior looks like that.

[@RubenTheBoss._]

Hmmmm.....

[@BiteSizedScenes]

Wait you hated it?

[@Kreativtsinne]

If it has to be explained... then its already not a good design.

Skyscraper Center is the most trusted website about skyscrapers around the world. KLCC is still the tallest building in Malaysia with an astonishing 452 meters in height. The TRX is only 445 meters unfortunately, meaning that it's also obviously not the tallest in ASEAN. The 492 meters height is actually measured from sea level, not ground level. KL tower's height from sea level is 515 meters in height, meaning that if we were to measure tallest height from sea level, KL Tower would take the crown, not TRX.

The next CBD of KUALA LUMPUR

[@darthazua]

It was built to not to compete the iconic twin towers. Not surprisingly, it stands at 445 m in height, though there is still a large space on top of the crown. It's like a hidden message. But that doesn't mean the twin towers remains supreme. Because PNB at that time was planning to build the tallest tower reaching a height of 600 m. So why waste your time and money on competing when someone is planning bigger than yours?

[@Ħæïķăł]

Darth Azua Its 452.1m height according to trx official...

[@darthazua]

@@Ħæïķăł I believe you. Even you judging from your naked eyes you can say TRX is taller than the twin towers. But the reports from many skyscraper sites claimed only 445m.

Thanks for the insightful and interesting interview.

Awesome drone shots brother siva... Keep up the good work

Yes! He is an awesome photographer and drone pilot.

Dear Ali Moghaddasi. If you're reading this, please come to Indonesia and fix Mulia Group's Taman Anggrek Mall's interior design! You're Chief Development Officer of Mulia, right? If so, come here and fix it!

[@theunknown-vu2ki]

That means he is not interested in your country

[@imanmanman9944]

Claim😂😂😂😂😂

[@AndrewIndoChannel]

@@theunknown-vu2ki I don't think the owners of Mulia Group like to hear that. (Thank God is not me)

[@AndrewIndoChannel]

@You Mom is Green he is part of Mulia. so he should be held responsible for Taman Anggrek's current interior design.

[@afizaassalam1415]

Indonesia gdp/capita ranking no 96 means still many years to catchup so that luxurious beyond its affordability is not necessary yet.

[@djyo3277]

Well I'm understand what u mean sir.. design is also art work

[@nicknick3994]

sir, i want you to add the spire on top of the crown to increase the building height.. please.. i think the building would be more ellegant

[@WindTunnelRacing]

This is Gorgeous. Nothing special, just simplicity with hits of Art. I think we are straying Too far away from it. Petronas are Fantastic, this is Fantastic. Burj Dubai. But many new ones are trying these Crazy shapes like the New tallest building going up in KL.

[@aheikal1715]

If this building have a problems to my eyes.. its about their exterior LED that light only half way.. I means.. maybe he can make that LED spread smoothly to the part that not have a LED.. its maybe looks more better then half LED like this one😬.. For the first time i saw this building at night.. i think the LED part just not finish yet..but uhh.. its looks so spoil..

[@firdaushamid92]

The tacky LED lighting ruined this building.why can't more building follow PTT elegant lighting.

[@fitmustaza2107]

Oh my god. I share your sentimen. Huduh benor the lighting at night. So tacky!

Actual is 492m

[@Indrewar]

yudua89 tu ikut paras laut trx 445m je

[@fitmustaza2107]

The lighting is sooo tacky! The one thet turn on everynight.. it gave me the sense of urgggghh ness.. In bahasa melayu we call it lampu lip lap lip lap. The crown itself is already a wonderful masterpiece (the apex of the whole design) be it during the day or at night it is beautiful to look at. I wish they get rid of those lampu lip lap.

[@shell8183]

👍I like malaysia mud and most other things 😁😁😁✌👍👍👍

[@RubenTheBoss._]

I hope this building stand at 492m😢we can play footbal at on top of this building. Because its like football field😆

[@iskandarockazzikr6316]

Likewise. I thought that there is a mini stadium on top of the building.

[@natep6729]

I don't care how it's made. It's an ugly eyesore. Especially at night the lighting is ugly sia. Multicoloured lights like tadika.

[@tarmizisulaiman5204]

local architect is better

[@0007lalala]

the lighting looks tacky at night.

[@cmfad7427]

minimal like Ikea concept

[@werunaway9059]

I'm a fan of minimalism building, however this design looks too.. plain and ugly. Maybe from a close distance u can see the details, but from afar, its just flat and boring.

[@tristantopambudi3186]

Build it as tall as you could I still think Petronas is world most beauty Especially this building have the name of world most corrupt person Mr.Razak.....how disgraceful

[@afizaassalam1415]

Agreed about razak's disgraceful. Anyway, Exchance 106 floor's space have been 60% booked even the building is not fully completed yet. An australian company Leased Commercial Pte Ltd is now marketing the rest of 40% worldwide. Major multinational corporates would move in soon.

[@cocacolife5079]

Sorry to say, they'd engaged the wrong architect. It doesn't worth the money for such design

[@AndrewIndoChannel]

They made it like that in order not to compete with PNB118 & Petronas.

[@rrsharizam]

Bad exterior, extravagant interior. Anyway, financial tower is not about exterior design. It's about what makes the most sense. Look at marina bay financial center, 1wtc, all look terrible from outside.

[@KastAtelier]

@@rrsharizam bad exterior regardless of what people say its very subjective. if the truth is just want to convey the message I think the architect just addresses the message that he wants to deliver. i means its better the tower to be simple rather than to be "over designed" and poorly executed as for example bangunan mahkamah Kuala Lumpur...

[@ggdfggdfgdffgfddg34]

!

[@zakirazak5812]

If you compare this building design to car designs, its a Toyota. Not a BMW or Ferarri. Its ugly in the day and even uglier at nite. What a waste of opportunity to plant another icon in the city skyline.

[@kriptorisme]

This is the most hideous looking building that destroy kl lovely skyline. Thanks Najib & 1MDB! 🤦
