Most recently, Kuwait commissioned stararchitect Zaha Hadid to design a contemporary

mosque as part of Avenues Phase III, at the
Avenues Mall in Kuwait City. This Mosque
would be located in the Avenues Mall, Kuwait
near Al-Rai industrial area, along the Fifth Ring
Road. But it turns out for some reason they
decided not to build it! Turns out it was only a
concept design but never got the go ahead.
I think thats such a major disappointment.
Zaha Hadid is such an incredible visionary
architect and Im 100% sure if the mosque were
completed, it would have looked a hundred
times nicer than the rendering above. We
barley got these few renderings to show you.
