SOHAR BANK OMAN HEADQUARTERS

TYPE Commercial; Office

LOCATION Muscat, Oman

CLIENT Sohar International Bank

PROJECT AREA 67,500 m²

STATUS Under Construction

The Sohar International Bank Headquarters project was won by CAL Collaborative via competition, was developed in partnership with Santiago Calatrava Architects & Engineers, and is currently under construction. The driving organizing logic is that of a mobius strip, a single-sided infinite loop. The building is set on three below-grade parking and service levels, then rises eight stories above and folds into itself, resulting in light-filled floorplates that host a full-service bank, offices, executive suites, conference rooms, prayer rooms, ballrooms, restaurants and multiple auditoriums, as well as a multi-floor atrium and central courtyard.
