SSH, a leading masterplanning, infrastructure, building design company in the Middle East, said 50 per cent of the work has been completed on Al Andalus, a mixed-use complex being developed in the Hawally district of Kuwait by Ajial Real Estate and Entertainment Company.

Giving a project update, SSH said all the structural works have been done and architectural finishes are heading towards the tower elevations and inside floors.

While conserving Kuwait’s traditional architectural identity and urban aspect, the project will offer various services for the public to enjoy, such as food and beverage outlets, retail and entertainment spaces that include 11 cinemas and a gymnasium, and offices and clinics, it stated.

“We are honoured to be working with Ajial Real Estate and Entertainment Company on a project of this stature, which is set to become a significant entertainment hub in the popular Hawally district,” remarked Khalil Alonaizi, the Resident Director (Kuwait) at SSH.  “The fact that the client awarded us this project based on our experience and expertise in the design of mixed-use retail and entertainment complexes in Kuwait, further strengthens our vision and mission to deliver another landmark project and to exceed our client’s expectations.”

The project is spread across more than 40,000 sq m and is linked by a pedestrian bridge to an existing multilevel car park with approximately 1,200 parking bays, said Alonaizi.

Cleverly designed outdoor spaces complement the mall component, offering visitors a square plaza located outside, as well as patios, walkways and balconies among its seating areas allocated for the various food and beverage outlets, he added.
