NBBJ was commissioned to re-imagine the interiors for the new American International University which strives to empower the next generation of leaders. The concept is inspired by a young group of Kuwaitis, dedicated to rebuilding their natural landscape through the planting of 350,000 trees. The interior design embodies attributes of desert trees through the exploration of warmth, pattern, canopy and light. Interstitial spaces reference the qualities of middle-eastern seed pods (vibrant colours, forms and textures) resulting in environments that promotes creative thinking and collaboration.
