Asahi Beer Hall - Tokyo , Japan

🇯🇵 東京へようこそ!

Welcome to Tokyo!

This was modeled by Dany Sánchez.

The Asahi Beer Hall (a.k.a. Super Dry Hall, or Flamme d'Or) is one of the buildings of the Asahi Breweries headquarters located on the east bank of the Sumida River, Tokyo, Japan. The black building with a golden flame on top was designed by French designer Philippe Starck and was completed in 1989. The shape of the building is that of a beer glass, designed to complement the neighboring golden beer mug-shaped building housing the Asahi Breweries offices. The Asahi Flame is sometimes colloquially referred to as "the golden turd" (kin no unko, 金のうんこ) and the Asahi Beer Hall itself as "poo building" (unko-biru, うんこビル) (from Wikipedia).

Printing Tips

Suggested parameters:

15 or 20mm/s outer perimeters, for better details
Fine-tune retraction to avoid stringing.
Perimeters: 2
Top layers: 3
Infill: as low as 12%

No supports needed. 

Different versions provided:

• single color, print all at once
• multi part, where you can print in colors using a standard, single-extruder printer, manually changing the filament for each file.
• multicolor, using a Prusa MMU, Mosaic Mfg. Palette, Bambulab or similar. Note that even for MMU, you could print separately the black and gold buildings to be able to use more colors in the splicing.

Note: the golden flame must be printed separately, in all cases and versions, with supports. It's the only one, and it's simple.
