Client Capital Fort AG
Capital Fort is a multifunctional development situated in one of the fastest growing business districts of the Bulgarian capital – at the south-east “gate” of Sofia city. The project has the potential to become one of the new architectural landmarks of Sofia. It consists of a 126-meter high office tower and a second 40-meter high office building, seated on a retail podium, and an underground car park.
The concept design is developed in cooperation with the famous Atkins Design Studio – designers of the famous Burj Al Arab in Dubai and many other contemporary architectural landmarks. The concept of the project is based on а search for a PRACTICAL but also EXCITING building, which combines some of the most important features for a successful real-estate project. It creates maximum convinience and comfort for its residents and visitors, meeting the dynamic demands of the contemporary business environment while becoming recognized as a new landmark of the city due to its contemporary architecture and dynamic visual appearance.
Capital Fort
Capital Fort is a project of strong environmental attitude. Energy saving is the key feature of the technologies and materials used in the construction.
The building is equipped with the latest generation of energy saving and recuperative HVAC systems, tripple glazed façade, additional thermal insulation, intelligent BMS system, etc. Despite its modest height for the world‘s skyscraper standards, at the time of its construction Capital Fort is the tallest building in Sofia and Bulgaria. The setting of new standards in the segment, the higher seismic risk in Sofia and the absence of recent experience in high-rise construction defines Capital Fort as a very innovative project for the local market.
