KACST Headquarters

The new headquarters of King Abdul Aziz City for Science and Technology are based in the Saudi Arabian capital of Riyadh. The project was designed by LAVA.
Lindner installed 25,000 m² of the LIGNA raised floor system (wood core). The cooling system is integrated in the cavity of the raised floor under the floor system and is coated with a carpet surface.
In addition to the floor systems, Lindner also installed 12,000 m² Lindner Life 620 partition walls including 350 GTB 10 glass doors on over 20 floors. In order to use the maximum light permeability of the exterior facade, all partition walls and doors are single glazed.
