The name HELMA reflects the ancient Kuwaiti architecture, which is characterized by its strong connection to local building materials including rubble stone covered with thick mud plaster, mud brick and Cora stone. It also reflects the efficient building techniques in wall construction, and the aesthetics on the facades, doors and windows. HELMA tries to bridge the gap between the ancient and contemporary architecture to engage with the material, cultural and social ecologies of Kuwait City.
