Project Summary

Alina is situated on a hill just south of downtown Nashville in an area known as Gulch View, with sweeping views of the city. The 4-story residential building sits atop a raised concrete podium structure and has a total of 50 residences complete with a roof terrace, upper floor community lobby area, and an entry lobby and fitness area where the building meets the street. Large expansive windows are punched into the crisp white facade of the building to emphasize the panoramic views of downtown Nashville, historic Fort Negley Park, and the surrounding neighborhoods.

The practice has also detailed one neighbourhood cluster as a pilot project to showcase a future vision for the city. The villa cluster forms the smallest unit of the masterplan, arranged around a contemporary interpretation of a Farige – a traditional Kuwaiti cul-de-sac. These also function as shaded courtyards, merging traditional living with contemporary urbanism. Several villa clusters together form a community centre, which includes local parks and shops, nursery and kindergarten schools, and local mosques at every 250 metres. A number of communities combine to become a neighbourhood, each with a residential centre featuring a large souk, centres for health, children and the youth, and primary, elementary and secondary schools.

The masterplan offers a range housing typologies, including apartments and patio houses, encouraging high density living with equally high standards of luxury. The modular construction system adopted throughout allows for multiple configurations and ensures high quality buildings, while also contributing to strengthening the construction industry in Kuwait. The pilot neighbourhood cluster will also feature roof-top photovoltaic installations on the industrial buildings surrounding the development, to further strengthen the sustainable credentials of the project. The city also offers opportunities several leisure activities such as desert glamping, e-biking, design galleries and luxury shopping.
