Gate of Kuwait

Gate of Kuwait was a supertall skyscraper under construction in Kuwait City, Kuwait. The 84 storey, 320 m building is planned to be used as a five-star hotel, office space, multi-storey car park, convention center and high-end retail space. The developer is Alshaya Group.

Initial plans for the project called for a 240 m tower with a 40 m Islamic arch. The intricately decorated arch, which featured geometric shapes and forms, was designed to reflect religious architectural elements found in Kuwait and Islam. However, a redesign saw the tower re-imagined as a slender 320 m tower clad entirely in blue glass on the façade and steel panels on the side. The "gate" element was changed from a giant portal into a simple, smaller opening to create a far more contemporary composition. The renderings that were released with the redesign featured a Four Seasons logo on top of the tower and on the bottom of the renderings, indicating that the hotel portion of the tower will be the future home of Four Seasons Hotel Kuwait.

Asakheni Consulting Engineering was commissioned to work on the structural engineering design.

The construction of the building was never completed.
