The brief
A flagship showroom in Shuwaikh for Lexus Kuwait — their first purpose-built retail environment since the marque arrived in the country. The opening date was non-negotiable.
A showroom is a still life around a moving object. The architecture holds its breath so the car can speak. Our job was to make the room quiet enough for that conversation — curved GRG ceilings, a mirror-polished floor, and column claddings that catch the Lexus spindle-grille light without ever stealing it.
Curves that don’t compete
The atrium’s spiral ribbon is a single GRG element read as three — ceiling, balustrade return, and soffit. Built in eleven sections, joined so the seams fall on geometry, not light.
- GRG panels — 312 bespoke pieces
- Column skins — mirror-polished stainless
- Finish tolerance — ± 1.5 mm on 14 m runs
- Lighting — integrated cove + track

"They treated a commercial fit-out like a museum build — measured, patient, and entirely unembarrassed about fixing what was almost right. The showroom opens the way it was drawn." — Project Director, Lexus Kuwait · 2021
