Katara Towers, Qatar

The unique architecture of the Katara Towers in Doha, Qatar, was inspired by the country's symbol, which is a pair of crossed scimitar swords.

Two of the most famous hotel chains in the world, Raffles and Fairmont, hold their headquarters in these 48,400 m2 twin-arched skyscrapers. The 200-meter-tall skyscrapers feature apartments, workplaces, restaurants, and places to play and relax.
There are a total of eight core walls that serve as structural dividers inside the building's five distinct sections. Towers 2 and 4 are the focal point of the entire structure due to their unique symmetrical arching design. They have a total area of 2,315 m2.
