Architectural Visualization

Kingdom Tower was Designed by Chicago Firm Adrian Smith and Gordon Gill Architecture. It is the world's tallest building, which

British construction firms ED Harris and Mace were selected by the Jeddah Economic Company (JEC) to provide project.

The building will consist of a five star Four Seasons Hotel offering luxury suites, serviced apartments and offices encompassing 530,000 square meters of space along with the world's highest observation deck. Visitors and residents will be able to enjoy spectacular views of the Red Sea through outdoor terraces on three sides of the building.

The Kingdom Tower features a streamlined and aerodynamic design set to represent a bundle of leaves shooting up from the ground, reinforcing Saudi Arabia's desire for evolution and urban development for Jeddah. It will also feature a high performance exterior designed to minimize energy consumption and reduce thermal loads.

The tower is also being celebrated for incorporating the "world's most sophisticated elevator system," with 59 elevators and 12 escalators moving people throughout the building floors. Elevators to the observation deck will travel at an impressive rate of 10 meters per second in both directions.

Kingdom Tower is due to be completed in winter 2018.
