| 词条 | Gate of Kuwait |
| 释义 |
Initial plans for the project called for a {{convert|240|m|ft|adj=mid|-high}} tower with a {{convert|40|m|ft|adj=mid|-high}} 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 {{convert|320|m|ft|adj=mid|-high}} 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.
