Kuwait United Tower, Kuwait City

The Kuwait United Tower, located in Kuwait City, is a modern architectural marvel, recognized for its unique and striking form that enhances the cityscape. Designed by the renowned architect team of Salem Al-Marzouk & Sabah Abi-Hanna from SSH, this skyscraper began construction in 2005 and was completed in 2008. Standing at 240 meters with 60 stories, it offers breathtaking views that make visitors feel like they can touch the clouds.

This mixed-use tower is a significant component of the central business district's regeneration. It serves multiple purposes, including residential apartments, commercial office spaces, a health club, and a shopping mall, thereby creating a dynamic environment that keeps the city streets vibrant and active at all times. The project is especially notable for its combination of office and residential spaces within a single high-rise structure, which makes a prominent statement on the city's skyline.

One of the key features of the United Tower is the creation of new open public spaces. These spaces, located between the tower and the existing buildings of Kuwait Business City, are designed to be lively and engaging, serving as a central focal point for the entire complex. Additionally, these areas are covered with a lightweight fabric roof, contributing to the overall aesthetics and functionality of the space while complementing the landscaping of the block.
