Living atop the smog of Bangkok in a luxury highrise sounds more like the booby prize of a life spent getting rich.

But the architects behind the city's newest residential tower, The Met, have designed the building with specific ventilation levels for its residents.

The 228m tower, which has almost completed construction, is made up of three slender vertical columns connected together by eight skybridges with communal gardens.

WOHA Limited + Tandem Architects say this will give residents a break from the city's notoriously smoggy atmosphere.

The luxury building, which will offer residents the tallest living spaces in the city, features penthouses with their own infinity pools.

You can track its construction online using the Met's own time-lapse photography.
