Appreciation towards Foster + Partners for providing the following description:

近期，Foster + Partners完成了科威特国家银行新总部的设计。这座300米高的摩天大楼在科威特沙尔克金融区逐渐壮大的建筑群中脱颖而出。它将银行职员汇聚在同一个屋檐下，促进协作并提升幸福感。设计结合了可持续特征与结构创新，采用节能的被动形式，使办公室免受科威特极端气候的影响。

Foster + Partners has recently completed the new headquarters for the National Bank of Kuwait. Located on a prominent site in Kuwait City, the 300-meter skyscraper has a distinctive presence among the buildings of Sharq, the city’s growing financial district. The new building brings all of the bank’s corporate employees together under one roof, promoting synergy and enhancing wellbeing. The design combines sustainable features and structural innovation, providing an energy efficient passive form, shielding the offices from the extremes of Kuwait’s climate.

Foster + Partners工作室的负责人Stefan Behling表示：“科威特国家银行新总部体现出创新环境战略和多元功能的结合，在科威特天际线中独树一帜。建筑融合了可持续性、功能性和标志性的设计，表明国家银行在城市中的独特存在与形象。”

Stefan Behling, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners, said: The new headquarters for the National Bank of Kuwait represents the coming together of an innovative environmental strategy and a diverse programme as a distinctive landmark that stands out on the Kuwaiti skyline. The building incorporates a sustainable, functional, and iconic design that signifies NBK’s unique presence and identity in the city.”

建筑北侧的弧形立面展示了阿拉伯湾的全景。一系列顺应太阳轨迹的混凝土鳍片纵向延伸至整个塔楼，不仅提供结构支撑，而且起到遮阳作用，有助于环保战略。楼板向下逐渐收缩，这最大限度地扩大了上层面积，并通过悬挑楼板遮住下方办公室来实现自遮阳。此外，被动式和主动式措施减少了用水量，节省能源并改善空气质量。

To the north, the curved façade reveals the panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf. A series of concrete fins along the sun path extend the full height of the tower, providing structural support while contributing to the environmental strategy through shading. By tapering the floorplates inwards towards the base, the design maximises floor space at the upper levels and provides self-shading as the overhanging floorplates shelter the offices below. Utilising both passive and active measures to reduce water consumption, energy use is minimised and the indoor air quality improved.

独特的塔楼形状使楼板逐渐向顶部变宽，给更多人带来广阔的视野。塔楼的63层设有空中大堂，为员工提供社交聚点和会议场所。塔底设有18米高的大厅，迎接员工和访客。18层设有双层通高的餐厅，19层设有先进健身房，38层设有独特的宴会厅和礼堂，可以看到海湾和城市其他区域的景观，48层设有三层通高的会议室。董事长俱乐部与这些公共区域相辅相成，塔顶引人注目、高耸的体量被造型独特的弧形天窗照亮，享有城市和海岸线的全景。

The tower’s distinctive shape creates wider floorplates towards the top, offering expansive views out to a greater number of people. The tower’s sixty-three floors are punctuated by sky lobbies, which provide a social focus and meeting facilities for staff. At the base of the tower, an 18-metre-high lobby greets employees and visitors. Level 18 features a double-height restaurant, followed by a state-of-the-art gym at level 19, a unique ballroom and auditorium on level 38 with panoramic views out to the bay and the rest of the city, and a triple height boardroom on level 48. These communal areas are complemented by the chairman’s club in the dramatic, soaring volume at the tower s apex, lit by a distinctive skylight that traces an arc through the space, offering panoramic views of the city and coastline.

Foster + Partners高级合伙人Nikolai Malsch表示：“我们为大楼设计的形式是由银行的需求驱动的，内部空间的安排是根据其组织要求定制的，同时为未来的变化和发展提供灵活性。我们创造了特定的工作环境，使每个人都拥有属于自己的空间。”

Nikolai Malsch, Senior Partner, Foster + Partners, said: The form we’ve developed for the tower is driven by the needs of the bank and the internal spatial arrangement is tailored to its organisational requirements, whilst providing flexibility for future change and growth. We have created a customised working environment where everybody has their own unique space.”

创新的双电梯策略最大限度地减少了交通核的尺寸，增加了可用净面积。该事务所还为塔内的关键空间设计了定制家具和照明。会议室采用了独特的照明装置，包括几盏优雅的吹制玻璃吊灯——由该事务所的工业设计团队设计——它们在13米长的大会议桌上方形成“云团”。

The innovative twin-lift strategy minimises the size of the cores to increase the net usable floorplate area. The practice has also designed the interior fit-out with its bespoke furniture and lighting for key spaces within the tower. The boardroom features distinctive lighting installations comprising several elegant blown-glass pendent lights – designed by the practice’s industrial design team – which form a cloud-like cluster above a grand 13-metre board table.
