The Design
About W Horse Stud Villa
W Horse Stud er sumarhús hannað fyrir 10.000 fermetra lóð á Wafra landbúnaðarsvæðinu í Kúveit. Húsið er lyft 140 sentimetra frá jörðu til að opna útsýni yfir hestagirðingarnar í kring. Skipulagið skiptist í tvo ása. Annar ásinn hýsir hesthúsið. Hinn hýsir svefnherbergin, borðstofuna og stórt stofurými sem snýr að sundlauginni. 40 metra löng verönd er skyggð af 3 metra útstæðu þaki til varnar gegn sól og sandi. Byggingin er úr einangruðum léttsteypueiningum, gleri, steinsteyptri burðargrind og léttu stálþaki.
