Take in the calming seaside views of a Kuwaiti barn conversion 💙
Designed by local architecture and design firm Pad 10, this impressive 41,700 sq ft private home clings to the coastline, drinking in calming seaside views
The Baraka Seaside Residence is an imposing family home on the coast of Bnaider, Kuwait. Designed by principal architect Naji Moujaes and his team at Pad 10, the home responds to a brief to ‘celebrate rather than suppress’ an existing barn on the plot. Pad 10 chose to raise the barn physically, elevating it to make the most of the impressive coastal views. In addition, a distinct guest house was newly built, to accommodate the family’s needs for flexible living and entertaining spaces. For example, the mother’s hosting area in the guest house is connected to the kids’ playroom in the family barn, via a shortcut ‘secret corridor’ embedded within the wood cladded library snaking both structures.
The sense of interconnection between the volumes continues thanks to great swathes of glass – you can see right through the dining room, and out to the impressive views beyond, from the central courtyard.Share your email to receive our daily digest of inspiration, escapism and design stories from around the worldPlease keep me up to date with special offers and news from Wallpaper and other brands within the TI Media.
