Object description

Standing 32 storeys high, the Kista Science Tower is the tallest office building in Sweden. It forms the centrepiece of a high-tech industrial park encompassing six buildings. A landmark visible for miles around, the tower sets a self-confident tone, its angled shape reaching elegantly skyward, an impression reinforced by the tower and the antenna point which rises from its tip. The light, translucent appearance is facilitated by the use of a double-glass unitised façade.
