In plan, the Kuwait Embassy in Brunei is simple – a rectangle attached to a square on one side. In three dimensions, however, it is a piece of sculpture writ large, with plentiful textures and strong articulations of volumes, planes and voids both inside and out. The building, whose architecture is by Arkitek Rekajaya and interior design by Bangkok-based Architectkidd, is a bold landmark. Located in the Embassy District in Bandar Seri Begawan, it adapts cultural nuances to a contemporary milieu.
