The Central Bank of Iraq headquarters, designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, embodies the values of solidity, stability, and sustainability through innovative architectural design and integration with Baghdad’s rich heritage.
With a distinctive twisting exoskeleton frame, the 170-meter tall skyscraper optimizes aesthetic and functional aspects while providing expansive views across Baghdad and connecting with the Tigris River.
The façade's rippling patterns are designed to reflect light similarly to the Tigris River, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical shading for the building's interiors.
Landscaped terraces and gardens at the building's base create a seamless transition to the urban environment, managing access while reinforcing architectural coherence within its surroundings.
