The Capitol Vista Ankara Office Tower is an office building designed to serve local and international high technology companies interested in capitalizing on nearby educational and research institutes, embracing the technopole model of economic development.
Urbanistically, the project plays an important role in the rapidly developing Eskeşehir Highway corridor west of Ankara’s old city center. At one edge, the site borders an emerging residential neighborhood. It is flanked on the opposite side by a transportation hub for highway, public transport, and pedestrians. In response, the building is set back from the highway, making space for a habitable urban garden, buffered by a bamboo grove and providing a critical pedestrian connection between transportation node and the adjacent neighborhood. The project is distinguished from its surroundings by simplicity of expression: a minimal geometric glass volume encasing a stack of large-scale, horizontal wood louvers, set in a lush garden.
The building is composed of a fourteen-story concrete frame clad with a high-performance curtain wall, and includes four levels of underground parking. The tower’s eccentrically organized core within the narrow building footprint and its unusually high ceilings create generous spaces that take advantage of unobstructed views and allow natural light to penetrate deeply into all tenant areas. Deep horizontal mullions on the exterior control solar gain, while interior operable PARKLEX PRODEMA NATURCLAD-W custom wood louvers, integral to the curtain wall system, give tenants individual daylight control.The tower’s tall, narrow proportions and the scale and repetition of the horizontal bands of glass and wood achieve a level of abstraction that lends stature to the project.
Capitol Vista 安卡拉办公楼（Capitol Vista Ankara Office Tower）面向依托周边教育与研究机构的本地及国际高科技企业，采用「科技城」经济发展模式进行设计。
从城市规划角度看，该项目位于安卡拉老城以西快速发展的埃斯基谢希尔（Eskişehir）公路走廊，扮演着重要角色。地块一端毗邻新兴居住区，另一侧紧邻公路、公共交通与行人汇聚的交通枢纽。为此，建筑后退于公路之后，留出一座宜居的城市花园——以一片竹林为缓冲，在交通节点与相邻社区之间建立起关键的步行连接。项目以简约的表达从周围环境中脱颖而出：一个极简的几何玻璃体量，包裹着一组大尺度横向木百叶，坐落于葱郁的花园之中。
建筑由十四层混凝土框架构成，外覆高性能玻璃幕墙，并设有四层地下停车库。塔楼核心筒在狭窄的建筑平面内偏心布置，配合超常规的层高，营造出开阔的空间——既充分利用无遮挡的视野，又让自然光深入每一处租户区域。外立面深挑的横向龙骨控制太阳得热，而与幕墙系统一体化的 PARKLEX PRODEMA NATURCLAD-W 定制木百叶则让租户可各自调控采光。塔楼高挑修长的比例，加上玻璃与木饰横向条带的尺度与韵律，达成一种抽象之美，赋予项目挺拔的气质。
