KFAS New Headquarters for Kuwait

KFAS New Headquarters for Kuwait

Headquarters and Public Place

The prominent qualities of the buildings are their landmark character, the high-rise design for the offices, and a plinth for the entrance and common spaces. The idea of a roof for the plinth, as a continued “topographic” ground surface to the underside of the high-rise building is appreciated by the jury. Within the frame of the site, the jury lauds the waterfront promenade that continues along the new Headquarters building towards the Conference Center and integrates the Ras Al-Ard peninsula in the overall waterfront transformation of Kuwait City.
