Four Seasons Kuwait

OVERVIEW

The Four Seasons Kuwait on the Burj Alshaya waterfront

boasts over 300 rooms and suites - the embodiment

of opulence inside and out. This prestigious hotel,

which blends motifs from traditional Middle Eastern

architecture into an airy contemporary space, was

designed to be the most luxurious in Kuwait, so

naturally, it required a specialist ironmongery solution.

Having worked on many of the Four Seasons projects

worldwide, Allgood was initially brought in by lead

architect, Gensler to support the development of the

ironmongery schedule. When Yabu Pushelberg was

appointed as interior designer, Allgood was selected

as their natural partner following many previous

collaborations on similarly large and complex projects.

The showpiece of the £1 million ironmongery project is

the bespoke brass pull handle on each of the 3.6 metrehigh

internal doors. Finished in a warm bronze designed

to patinate over time, with a hammered texture, these

pull handles required months of consultation and

prototyping, as well as a customised manufacturing

process in Allgood’s Birmingham factory.

On March 22nd, Four Seasons Kuwait won second

place in the International category of the RIBA-GAI

Specification Awards 2019. The judges commented:

“This entry is of an extremely high standard. The

hardware compliments the building fabric perfectly

- in the simplicity of design and universal finish. The

hotel design is well mirrored by the hardware in its

appearance and theme.”
