Elegant Oasis

Yabu Pushelberg brings its renowned spirit of contemporary design to Kuwait City at the Four Seasons Hotel Kuwait at Burj Alshaya.

BESPOKE MODERN LUXURY

Guided by their interpretation of life in the desert, the design duo Glenn Pushelberg and George Yabu of international design firm Yabu Pushelberg have brought their signature hospitality approach to Kuwait City with a beguiling design for the Four Seasons Hotel Kuwait at Burj Alshaya.

“[The hotel] was designed with the intrepid traveller in mind; [a traveller] who is culturally informed. There is a residential quality to the hotel that invites guests to explore both it and its environments. Although the hotel is distinctly connected to motifs found within the Middle East, we believe the hotel transcends beyond Kuwait, drawing visitors from worldwide,” says Pushelberg. “Through design, we approach the luxury market with the intent to create a sense of invention that allows guests to feel that their experiences are one of a kind,” he continues.

The bold design bathes guests in rich materials and an intriguing interplay of geometries and dynamic colouration.

“We are quite pleased with how the hotel came together as a whole. To us, something that’s compelling is the forceful confidence that’s found within the symmetry of the hotel’s sight lines. We complemented this uniformity with expansive archways that graciously highlight the quality of space found throughout the hotel. To add dynamism, we offset sculptural features to make the spaces more compelling,” he addst.
