Kingdom Centre
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

HEIGHT: 302m/991 feet
FLOORS: 30 floors
COMPLETION: 2002
ARCHITECT: Ellerbe Becket, Omrania and Associates

The Kingdom Centre will have a great impact on the social and commercial environment of Riyadh. It is envisioned as the New International Icon of both Riyadh and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and a towering symbol of its progress to the new millennium. The tower will dominate the skyline above Riyadh's premier commercial district and its architectural beauty will remain in the memory of the visitors who once visit the Kingdom Center. It is believed that the shopping complex will provide a whole new lifestyle for the capital residents. The Kingdom Centre will also inspire the other renowned groups of companies in the Kingdom to construct prestigious projects contributing to development and international recognition of the city and the country. This project is also adding to the knowledge of the local consultants and contractors in the construction of high-rise buildings that will pave the way in execution of such projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

8/10

A very novel design and building that 60m wide skybridge must have been very difficult. The only dumb thing about it is half of it is 30 floors..and the other half are those huge arms.

If i ever have a 4000 ft beer ill know where i can open it!! ;) LOL. .
yeah i read that they dont have a height limit in Riyadh, but they have a 30 floor limit. . thats odd . .

forgot to rate it. . . 7.5/10 for being innovative

I do agree with you

Very clever way of getting around a 30 level limit. A bit wide, but very curvy and glassy.

8.5/10

HOLI :eek2: 30 stories and its 296m?! that KOOL! 10/ 10!...hmm, whats that hole used for?

one of the world's best looking skyscrapers!
9.5/10

Simple and unique design. I like it! 9.5/10. I saw a documentary on the construction of this building and its rival across town, the Al Faisaliah (I can pronounce it correctly now!) Center. The princes who commisioned these two towers could not get around the 30 storey height limit, so with the Al Faisaliah the architects put in a high lobby, observation floors (visible under the K braces) and a round restaurant below stacks of telecommunication platforms and a lantern.

In the documentary the architects of Kingdom Center showed various models of previous designs, none as simple and effective as the built design, and said that the prince rejected all of them. Finally they came up with the present design, built a model of it, and when the prince saw it for the first time he put his arms around it and said, "This is the tower I want."

looks great :)

9/10

10/10 I love this one! So awesome!

Cool but not cool. 7.0

I adore this building.:D A fitting symbol for the world's most successful, family owned petrol-station.

9.5/10

Nice tower. A tall massive tower but it only has 30 floors...:ohno: Sort of a waste.

Anywayz 8/10.

Why is there a 30 storey limit? But the tower can be structurally taller....:?

9. Hole is too big. Looks misproportioned. Still a spectacular design, though.

Well, I suppose giant bottle-openers make as much sense as anything else. And it's nothing if not original.
7/10

Such an intriguing and unique super structure. I saw that superb documentary on it's construction as well. Very interesting what all went into creating this giant. It deserves it's showcased splendid isolation, for it may look bizarre if it were in the middle of a dense tall downtown cluster. 9.

beautiful design...
972 ft and only 30 storeys?
how many meters were alotted on each floor?
Amazing!

What????

anyway I rate this cool building 9.5 out of 10

9/10
looks huge and beautiful;)

This is one of my most favorites. I would move it here. I like this one a lot. 10/10

10/10.... very pure, very simple.

what's that hole for?
6/10

I like it because it looks like a giant potato peeler.

8.5/10

9/10. What a badass structure.

Don't forget to vote for this building for the 2002 Skyscrapers.com Awards!!!! We must ensure that this building is honoured for its majestic beauty and sheer engineering marvel! :okay:

VOTE HERE !!! (http://www.skyscrapers.com/english/buildings/skyscrapers/skyscraperscomaward/)

...and don't forget to log in when you vote to ensure it is counted! :guns1:

7.5/10 - Nice height, nice curtain glass facade, but confound it, it still looks like a giant can opener! Maybe if they'd added a few setbacks or something...

I've just recently discovered this building, I love it. One of my new favorites. 9.5/10

luv it! They should light it up more but, 10

I'd love to see this super structure in a setting that included Fountain Place in Dallas and the Bank of China in Hong Kong. Would be cool! Of course, I'd add Shanghai's hole-in-the-top - when it's built. ;)

I heard Rafiq Al Hariri (Lebanon's prime minister and a multi-billionare) will build a super skyscraper in Ritadh, maybe larger than the Kingdom Centre. It's kinda like New York in the 20s and 30s, eveyrone wants to build the highest skyscraper.

It looks awesome at night! Who cares about all the wasted space when it looks so damn cool?! ->9/10

very unique design for a skyscraper though I must say it looks more like a monument than an actual building & at 30 stories not very functional for an office building but that seems to be the case in Saudi Arabia...for design & engineering it gets a 9/10.

I ALSO VOTED ON THE SKYSCRAPERS.COM AWARD ON THIS ONE :guns1: :? >( :rant:

9.5/10 ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash: ;) :guns1: :bash:

7/10

A nice structure, but it sits alone in Riyadh.

simply one of a kind. i would give it 10 out of 10.

Well, the campaign seems to have worked: the Kingdom Centre MADE the #1 spot in the skyscrapers.com competition! :guns1:

Not bad, 7.5/10

They should build a 50m lobby, 15m celings, extra thick floors so the height for 30 storeys would be 500m:D
And poof! You get the world's tallest building and there's no spire to argue about

Add something like Kingdom Centre's roof and a spire, you get a height of 700m

Now beat that!:D

One of my most favourite skyscraper
9/10

Just saw it finished for the first time (on my last few months in Saudi). It gets points for sticking out on the skyline in that area (much like the williams in Houston).
,5 off for some wasted space and ground scape.
9.0


Ciao,
Lt-AWACS, watching you from 30,000ft

wow i like it! 9/10!

Between those large empty peaks there should be a flaming eye in stead of just a bar of metal, just like in Barad-dur, the tower of the Dark Lord Sauron from Lord of the Rings!

Interesting structure, but far from beautifull

its a cool design but i dont like the facade that much 7.5

Design is good.Just too bad that it's placed in Riyadh.

Who voted less than 3 ?

I really do like this building. It's HUGE and beautiful.
:( Too bad it belongs to a pyscho Sultan.

9.0

This is a total signature-nice color, daring design. But one of these types of icons is enough for 1 city-any more would be too much IMO.

I'll give this one an 8, very unique design

7.5 It does look pretty good... but it's extremely excessive for only being 30 floors

8/10. Nice but I like his taller brother that u/c in Shanghai.

Looks nicer if you are religious, I guess. Hope they allow small planes to fly through it. If not, then it's a lousy building.

Gem of the Middle East.. The shape looks great but somehow its a little fat too.. :) But really this scraper is about class.. One look at it and you will continue to stare at it for quite sometime.. Very eye catching ;) The hole in the top is a very clever way to work around the 30 floor limit ! :D

10/10

That is the skycraper that won the skyscrapers.com competition!
http://www.skyscrapers.com/re/en/

i'm surprised it only has 30 floors!! i give 7/10

3 or less, i dont like this one

7/10...It suits it's location well and is a good example of how culture influences architecture, though it's a bit odd looking and futuristic for me.

i love its sheer futurism and sculptured form. if only other buildings were this daring. 10/10

best skyscraper in arabia

10/10 :guns1:

Well, what can I say? It's a giant bottle-opener, but it looks pretty good...8/10

6.5/10

8.5/10 :)
It's an extremely unusual design. It's hard to believe it only has 30 floors - I thought they would've continued the floors all the way up the 'arms' either side of the hole.

that's so damned cool

9.5

So grand
Saw soem thing on discorvery Channel on how this was built and hungry for more infortmation on it !
Not sure I would ever go as sorta far from places unless in transit
Still great images

Is a very original skyscraper so I give it a 10/10 for the building, but I will give it a 5/10 for the context( this building is just alone in the skyline, it looks too huge in a city that has just two buildings)

awesome building, I'll give it a 10

9.5/10



Amazing tower.

8/10

9/10
Wonderful & cool design!
Looks sleek with the glass covering, very modern.

Very Bling Bling, I like it!;) I wanna see the bottle of Corona that thing opens!

9/10

It's okay and the walkway at the top looks great :cool:

7/10

Fantastic design, modern, very clean and original 9,5/10

the huge opening's attractive, but it takes up too much of the builing. i mean, it's 300m tall, but only 30 stories! that's crazy. the majority of the buildings half as tall have 30+ stories too.

8.5

9/10
Great!

incredible design....just perfect.......................10

10/10

this building deserves more than 10

9.5/10

With ONLY 30 floors that means there's 33 FEET between each floor!!

MUST BE VERY LUXURIOUS!!

8/10

Stunning, breathtaking design. Truly a great shape, nice colors, astonishing work, original (no longer unique). The side profile is amazing, and the curvature great, although the length of it is a little too big for my taste and its a little inpractical. Plus, I wouldnt want a skyline with only these guys.

So I know this may be opening a can of worms and folks are very vehement about the whole height thing but here is a question:

What is so different about Kingdom Centre, One Emerites Tower, the Domiko Building (I know I spelled it wrong, but Tokyo's tallest), and other such "buildings" that are just ornamental in half their height...that is, why does a spire not count, but if you enclose the space like Kingdom Centre does, it counts towards the overall height?

I can see the opposing point to this, it is technically still a building, but then the question is -- how is this not "cheating" to attain height, whereas folks just barrage poor Freedom Tower calling it a cheat for having all the lattice work...I hate Freedom Tower's design, so I am not sticking up for it...I do kinda feel badly for the building...it is like a handicapped child born prematurely...it was not the kids fault, it is just how the dice rolls in life ;-)

But anyone care to comment on if they think Kingdom Centre etc are "cheats" as well just as badly as say Freedom Tower and Petronas

;-)

I just realized that but the biggest cheater by far is Burj Al Arab, that thing isn't even 700 feet tall.

I know, they all do it really, even Taipei101 has the top floors above the occupational space, SWFC has the ornamental top with the hole, why is that not cheating in the true sense that people use cheating when describing Freedom Tower since it is all the same

I think if we change the official height to the height of the highest occupied floors, things would be better.

Unless China makes each story 40 feet high. :nuts:

Really nice 9/10

I agree Naptown.

Thats been my idea (although I never suggested it here) for a long long time. People will still find loopholes, but it more accurately describes a building, in my opinion.

9.5!

one of the best symbol for Saudi Arabia, 9.5

Just great.

9/10

One of the Best Scrapers Around 10/10

Are there floors or any habitable areas surronding that hole???, perhaps the floors only go up untill the hole and that's how they were able to evade the 30 story rule.

Quite possibly the most elegant skyscraper in the world. 10/10!!!

8/10

crazy tower! great creativity! 10

http://carlosgullermo_haydon_42

le doy un 9,5/10.....si hubiera sido tan alto como Taipei 101 o como el Two International centre de Hong Kong....le hubiera dado su 10......

definitivamente el Kingdom Centre es uno de los mas bellos edificios del mundo,se parece mucho a el futuro Shaghai International Finance Centre que aun se construye en Shanghai,pero en definitiva....es el edificio mas espectacular de oficinas.....y la cadena de hoteles Four Seasons no se equivocó a escogerlo para ubicar su hotel en Riyadh.....y este edifico tiene de todo,desde Tiendas,el hotel,oficinas...lo maximo,.,......

ocupa el Puesto 5 como mejor skyscraper of the world.......solo superrados por

1 Petronas Towers
2 Taipei 101
3 shung Hing Square en Shenshen
4 Burj al Arab Hotel en Dubai.....y el 5 puesto para Kingdom centre..jeeee

kombateruso,Caracas,Vzla.

10/10

absolutely 10/10!!

7/10

I'm not a huge fan of this, I must admit.

Shanghai World Financial Centre will look 10 times better I think.

This is the building that you'll never get tired of looking at.10/10

I can't rate it cos i can't find a pic on here. oh well

10/10....beyond description

10/10...........beautiful

9.5

Wow, that glass in some of the pics is amazing- almost looks like velvet. Great design and suited to an area that would embrace such a style. You get an entirely different feeling from the building depending on what angle you're looking at it. It's a beauty!

impressive but I didnt like its night photo 8/10 First photo is :eek: Idl like to see it in real....

Amazing pic Sercan, thanks! It looks as if this building is in the middle of no-where (by that, I mean there are no other high-rise buildings nearby).
I really like the design though 9.5

10/10

I have a tremendous dislike for buildings with huge holes in them.

Pretty amazing building, and the Skybridge or whatever its called should be spectacular. 8/10

Nice design, somewhat like a bottle opener, in a country where you may not drink! ;) 8

BTW it is 41 floors and 302 m/ 992 ft.

9/10. I love this one. I have something very similar hanging in my shower with gel in it!

Fantastic! 9/10.

It's good, but the hole is too big, 9/10

7/10

Overrated. Good design, but almost all of it is that crown thing. Shanghai WFC will look much better than this. I give it a 7/10.

10, it and the Al-Falsayliyah are my most favourite buildings in Saudi!

wowww10/10

9/10 a bit desrted:(

10/10 ... great structure ... very impressive !

That is the greatest tower in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek2:

Not bad, 6

Great 9/10

Wow.
Great in every aspect.
I just rated Metlife building and I realize how some design refining can completeling change the feeling of a shape.
Its loneliness gives it the look of some ancient alien monument, somehow still shiny and untouched by time. Just great.

Very futuristic. 9.

7.5/10

Strange design.I don't know if I like it or not.

10/10


I love this one. The design is totally unique and fits for Riyadh.

innovative, but awkward. I think Shanghai world Finance Centre will look alot better, it'll be slicker and look alot more like a supertall, also more elegant and in a better city.

6.5/10

Really strange design, but looks great! 9/10

I love it...great looking building...breathtaking and unique. I like its blue colored facade and how it reflects the environment around it. Spectacular building...one of the best!!! :omg::omg::omg:
10/10 :master::master::master:

Great!! 9.5/10

Definately one of my favorites, aesthetically pleasing, and unique. 9

Beautiful building.... 10 points..!

:cheers:

Too bad it's al alone, needs at least 5 200mtr tall buildings next to it ;):D

9.0, because it's beatifull.

WOW! this is the best building i have seen so far on this website and even in my life....

I'm not sure if this is already done but since the list didn't say it is then I'll make it.

"Kingdom Centre, in Riyadh, is the tallest skycraper in Saudi Arabia. With a height of 302 m (992 ft), it is considered the 25th tallest building in the world. The tower is built on area of 94,230 square meter land, while the whole centre is built on a total area of 300,000 square meter.

The Kingdom Centre is owned by Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, a prince of the Saudi royal family, the total cost of the project was 1,717 Million Saudi Arabian Riyals and the contract was taken by Saudi Arabian Bechtel. Kingdom Centre is situated in Al-Urubah Road between King Fahd Road and Olaya Street in the growing business district of Olaya in Riyadh. Kingdom Centre is the winning building of the Skyscrapers.com Award 2002, selected as the "best new skyscraper of the year for design and functionality". Also a three-level shopping center fills the east wing. The mall won a major design award. The large opening is illuminated at night in continuously changing colors.

Besides the shopping mall, the Centre includes a Four Seasons Hotel and state of the art apartments. The ellipse motif taken from the tower's footprint appears also in the light fixtures, ceiling panels, entrance canopy, wastebaskets, and furniture."-wikipedia

impressive design , but something's missing !??
8,5/10

good designe and original box 8,5/10

10/10

sublime

although this came first, the design of SWFC perfects the same idea.

7.5/10

Even though normally I really like glass the facade of Kingdom Centre is a little dissapointing to me. It needs something more, something to break it up a bit. But this building does get points for iconic form and the facade is still quite impressive. 7.5/10

awesome building 10.

9/10

Too thin but modern, huh? 9/10

8.5/10

10/10 I love it!

OMG thats beautifull 10/10 :eek2:

very unique, i think the whole in it though to too BIG!
7/10

They achieved the impossible - making a 296m building look stumpy. Too wide and the hole goes down too far for balance.

But, it's simple, different and shiny..

7.5/10

7/10

One of my favorite skyscrapers in the world. 10/10

it really looks great but it has only 30floors? OMG! thats so unrealistic!!

:whoa: I Like That Building!

Can I Give 11? :lol:

I've never seen this building until now. It's a real breath of fresh air--beautiful lines, color, and shape. The void is dramatic, but not quixotic.

9/10

Love it. 9/10

Thats odd 30 FLOORS = 296m Thats too much man

10/10

9/10 quite innovative.

I cannot see any pictures but I have seen already this building and it was beautiful. 10/10

Now this is one futuristic tower! Too bad more architectural flourishes and embellishments weren't incorporated into the design. But it's still a fabulous idea, perhaps not taken quite far enough (?) It's unique, bold, even fearless. I rate it a 9. :cool:

Sorry I forgot to add the "coutesy" bit in the beginning of the post. Your pictures were so good, I had no joice but to chose to post them. :) :okay:

9/10, great facade and design!

9/10. i like it :)

10/10 Out of this world

9/10

Absolutely amazing looking structure. So well finished; even looks ethereal in some of those pictures. Amazing curves, materials, and profile. Commanding for a reason contrary to that of most buildings: it has presence because of an utter lack of mass in its design rather than an excess of it, and for this it is a stunning achievement. Color compilation is flawless. Truly a unique and great design.

10/10 One of my top 3 favorite buildings in the world. 972 floors and 30 floors. That alone has to be a record. But there was a 30 floor limit in that city without there being a height limit so its a clever way to get around it. The design is nearly flawless, the reflective glass is awe inspiring. This is an icon for the middle east and one of the greatest towers ever. period.

I love so much this building!! 10/10

I give it a 10, I realy like the design it's really innovative.

what a futuristic design!!
9/10!!

i give the toy 10/10 pts.

Unique and standing out, but I don't know why, I don't like it. :? 7/10

It's different...a bit of a break from the norm, but nothing particularly
special. 7/10

pretty neat scraper 9/10 :)

7.5/10 looks like an apple peeler, but only 30 floors? Style over substance

reminds me of a gient bottle opener

7 points for cool but kind of annoying design
+
1 bonus point for having only thirty floors
=
8.0

Clever design to be both tall, and short. Unique and shiny. Really very cool.

Looks great 8/10

I would have liked it a lot better without the connecting part at the top that turns it
into a bottle opener. Still, a pretty cool building.

:okay:

8.5/10 looks good

Look like a huge, futuristic iron but can be...I won't go down on my knees but won't cry either...so 8,5/10 because looks good from some perspectives.

:eek2: very slim from the side ,huge in front .just awesome 9.5/10

well..........it looks like a long 'shopping bag' to me :hilarious :hilarious :hilarious ......and this "SHOPPING BAG" was needed,cuz Riyadh looks like a shopping paradise to me...........but still this is one of the most unique skyscrapers i've ever seen in the world.....and i don't believe it won the 'BEST SKYSCRAPER OF THE YEAR' award in 2002 :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: .............Any ways,i give it 9.5

coool 10/10
