The Building Design of Stone Tower for Office and Retail Complex

This stone towers building was designed by famous woman architect, Zaha Hadid for the client Rooya Group. The building comprises 525,000sqm office and retail complex which will be built in the stone park district of Cairo, Egypt. The stone tower will also completed with a five-star business hotel with serviced apartments, retail with food and beverage facilities. And the one that will be most interesting place in this building is sunken landscaped gardens and plaza called the ‘delta’.

Zaha hadid said: ‘I am delighted to be working in Cairo. I have visited Egypt many times and I have always been fascinated by the mathematics and arts of the Arab world. In our office we have always researched the formal concepts of geometry – which relates a great deal to the region’s art traditions and sciences in terms of algebra, geometry and mathematics. This research has informed the design for stone towers. With a large-scale project such as this, care must be taken to balance a necessary requirement for repetitive elements whilst avoiding an uncompromising repetition of static building masses. The architecture of stone towers pursues a geometric rhythm of similar, interlocking, yet individually differentiated building forms that creates a cohesive composition.’
