The project is located in Sabah Alahmed Alsabah Maritime City, in the southern part of Kuwait. Developed to expand the shoreline length, it brings the sea into the desert through a series of canals, anchored by docks, marinas and activated by many other recreational activities. The idea was to develop a sense of unity, using an architectural language of simple plane geometry, as well as the same basic concept and programmatic organization, resulting in a contemporary image of continuity and proportion, where slight harmonious variations guarantee complexity and diversity to this set of houses.
