The Kuwait Towers are three reinforced concrete towers located in Kuwait, the capital of the homonymous country.

Description

The main tower measures 187 meters high and is composed of a restaurant and a water tower. There is also a sphere of observation that rises to 123 meters above sea level and performs a complete rotation every 30 minutes. The second tower, 145.8 meters high, also serves as a water tower. The third tower houses the equipment to control the flow of electricity and illuminates the two largest towers. The towers can hold 4,500 cubic meters of water.

They were designed by Sune Lindström and Malene Björn and were built by Energoprojekt, a company from Belgrade in Yugoslavia. They were opened to the public in March 1979. The towers were heavily damaged by the Iraqis during their occupation of Kuwait from 1990 to 1991 and were renovated in 1992 after the liberation of the country.

Design and construction

The main tower is about 187 meters high and has two spheres. The inferior sphere has in its inferior part of a water tank of 4,500 cubic meters and in its upper half a restaurant for 90 people, a cafeteria, a hall and a reception room. The upper sphere, which rises to 123 meters above sea level and completes one complete round every 30 minutes, has a cafeteria. The second tower is 147 meters high and serves as a water tank. The third tower houses equipment to illuminate the two large towers. The towers have 9,000 cubic meters of water in full.3 4 5 Although there are three towers, the structure is often referred to as the Kuwait Tower in the singular.

The Kuwait Towers were designed by the Danish architect Malene Bjørn as part of a water distribution project run by the Swedish engineering company VBB (renamed Sweco in 1997). The chief architect of Sune Lindström's company erected five groups of its typical mushroom water towers, the Kuwait Water Towers, but the Kuwaiti emir, Sheikh Yaber Al-Ahmad, wanted a more attractive design for the sixth site. Of the ten different designs, three were presented to the Emir, who chose the design.

The Kuwait Towers project was made by VBB, who contracted the construction for Energoprojekt in Belgrade, Yugoslavia.9 The towers were constructed of reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete. Construction was carried out from 1971 to 1976 and the main tower was opened to the public on March 1, 1979.10

Approximately 41,000 enameled steel discs span the three spheres in eight shades of blue, green and gray, reminiscent of the tile domes of historic mosques. The disks are arranged in spiral patterns around the spheres. According to the architect, the group of towers refers to the ideals of humanity and technology, symbolized by the balloon and the rocket.11 The Kuwait Towers were, along with the Kuwait Water Towers, During the first Gulf War of 1990 and 1991, the towers were damaged, as Saddam Hussein intended to demolish them. Fortunately, only minor structural damage was done.
