Kista Torn (in English, Kista Towers) is a pair of 19- and 40-storey apartment buildings, connected at their base. The towers are situated on Borgarfjordsgatan in the Kista district of Stockholm, Sweden.[1] The highest tower ("K1") stands at 117.9 m (387 ft) tall, which made it the tallest residential skyscraper in Stockholm on its completion in 2015.[2][3][4] This feat is set to be matched by Norra Tornen in Hagastaden, upon completion of that project.[5]

The complex was designed by Brunnberg & Forshed Arkitektkontor AB, and is situated 200 m (660 ft) from Kista Centrum bus station and Kista metro station, alongside Kista Galleria shopping mall.[6]
