It’s just that this building is designed differently from others,” Duangchot said. The building in question, in Bangkok’s Ploenchit area, will have 32 floors once construction is complete next year. Dr Assawin Wanichkorkul, the technical director of the Rosewood Bangkok Hotel project, said he rushed to the construction site as soon as he heard about the rumours on social media. He explained that the building was designed to have a “3D feel”, with slanting parts “inspired by palms pressing together”. Some construction workers heard the rumours from social media on Monday morning and initially refused to go to the work site.
