Thaqeb Alserhan
I am an architect. Creating space
experience is my mission.
“Entertainment” is used as the base
for my work technique.
Design and development are what I
do best, actually faster than getting
dressed!
Design is what I speak, universal,
reachable, and so chic.
Appreciate your time in holding this book.
Go ahead, it is a good time to take a look.
What do you really
expect from an architect ?!..
	 Nothing but the good listening to
your needs and requirements then the
right ability to translate, creating
interests, by establishing the favorable
space program and design. Architects
, services, can be considered as a fine
printer for the client’s thoughts and
visions!
	 As an architect, the truly
unique concept must come from the
“revolutionized thinking”. It is
important to understand, whether you
want to be creative or not, ideas should
start from scratch. Investing a great
amount of time pre-developing new
design techniques and documenting
results, will lead into a satisfied
project’s expectation by the client.
Awarded “Owner of the Best Small
Business in Kuwait for Year 2013 on
the level of the GCC Countries”
	 Thaqeb Alserhan solely awarded by the Gulf Cooperation
Council (GCC) the prize for being “Owner of best small business in
Kuwait for year 2013” which was the result of a long term dedication
and effort.

We are as what we are, human
have and share common diverse
thoughts. Our thoughts never stops;
it just keep going. In most, they
get lost, few stay by. When it comes
to thoughts in the built environment,
What about capturing
your thoughts?
then it is my serving moment to
translate anyone’s “thoughtful”
design ideas into a tangible
presentation, confirming the
change of perceptions! This is the
magic that I do and the talent
that I sell.
It is beautiful to aim for positive
and creative life, start with a smile.
I aim to be advanced as my general
code is to-build, building the bright
future not only for me but for every
person who love peace and reject
violence.

Thaqeb Alserhan’s principal rule in his
professional career is to clearly deliver
his design method and vision to whom
they seek this type of design approach.
It is a message from the inner feel of
responsibility toward his vision-in-life, as
it is part of his Ethical Practice.
With Thaqeb Alserhan, developing any
type of project is an exciting experience
as he easily express his confident design
excellence and communication skills.
What matter the most is the “Idea” itself.
The essential long term exposure to
diverse projects’ types, sizes, functions,
and markets, made him a key player in
initiating new investment ideas and a
leader in developing unique projects.
Most people envision themselves
in having their own branded
store!
The Courtyard 1998
by Thaqeb Alserhan
It is good to remember and
look up for the old school days, at
Fletcher’s courtyard, smelling the breeze
of Louisiana, listening to what others
say about their future designs, sharing
ideas, pitching concepts. It is hard
to forget these days, especially when
you have that super-sized mosquito
sucking the blood out of your arm.
Ouch!

Architecture has
reached into a new level
of sophistication due to
the big revolution in the
design software, expanding
the business of design
beyond the architectural
fields. Since Thaqeb
Alserhan’s graduation in
2001, he saw the urgent
essential need to set a
dedicated goal of having
his own personal design
approach and signature
style. Since that early
stage of his professional
life, he was committed to
his dedicated goal and to
expose the uniqueness of
elements by developing
diverse architectural,
interior, furniture, and the
related designs, through
the use of his signature
style approach and his
developed technique of
space experience.

ARCHITECTURE
& BEYOND
At Thaqeb Alserhan’s first working year at Pan
Arab Consulting Engineers PACE, one of the leading
and oldest consulting office in Kuwait, Thaqeb
Alserhan awarded a great opportunity in becoming
a project architect for one of their largest projects,
the Basic Education Collage. This resulted in gaining
the knowledge of large scale developments and
programs. Thisawardcameasaresultofhimshowing
great understanding in developing architectural
concepts in several large scale projects. He become
in-charge in training students of architecture for the
summer program. He conducted training sessions for
PACE staff on the new methods of architectural visual
presentations by utilizing the power of the digital
media which it was new at that time.
PACE is founded in Kuwait City in 1968 by Mr Hamid
Abdulsalam Shuaib and Partners.

The impact of oil
discovery, and the clash
between the old and the
new, damaged the roots
of the “Kuwaiti Elements”
of Architecture. Kuwait’s
architecture moved away
from its heritage and lost
its original value. The
best spot to be in is the
understanding of this
culture. Today, Thaqeb
Alserhan’s intent to push the
Kuwaiti architecture forward
by moving it toward the next
level of design, currying its
history without “the copying
of the past”.
	 Culture, art, and
architecture cannot be
separated. They work
together as one history.
Once you give less attention
to one part, the other
will weaken. Yet, a great
number of local designers
and architects insist on
replicating the visualized
traditions from the outer-
side of effort instead of
advancing it to the future
generations.

Art and architecture
are related. As architecture,
art is a process about
experience and emotion.
It is another powerful tool
to reach and sell specific
market. Thaqeb Alserhan
believes in art as he sees
himself as an art lover.
Through his life with an
early adoption to the
digital art world. Digital
Art is a beautiful field
to get involved in it and
understand. This field is
a great opportunity for all
artists to try because of its
creativeness and richness.
It is the ocean of feeling that
connects people together.
	 The conventional
artwork played a part in
shaping Thaqeb Alserhan’s
artistic life. He had his own
private and public artwork
collection, range from large
scale 3D carved wooden
work to conventional
charcoal drawings. His
artwork get sold locally and
internationally through his
E:T’s The Gallery Store in
Alrai Area.
	 Thaqeb Alserhan
believes that artwork is
part of the space and is a
must for the healthy built
environment and interior
spaces.

As time pass by,
as our perception of style
evolve, as people taste to
details differ. By observing
them, it seems that they
are investing more in the
entertaining products.
Lifestyle makers and
style setters employ their
creativeness to exceed
people’s imagination
through the use of
entertainment. Imagination
is an amazing thing, and
when it is combined with
inspiration, it will have a
stunning trendy result.
Thaqeb Alserhan’s critical
thinking works in the same
direction of perception. In
order to produce design
and evolve, with function
and beauty, it is on his task
to embrace inspiration, and
push his imagination to the
limit and beyond.

Thaqeb Alserhan
believes in the self
developing, boundary
pushing, and every
opportunity field to
be closely explored.
Contracting, production,
and solution design are
great money making
markets that can not be
ignored. According to
Thaqeb Alserhan, being an
architect does not mean
stick to building designs
rather than exceeding
the market to grab a
market niche in what
follows the architectural
construction stage. There
is, even if, no building
without post-construction
such as FF&E. It can be
structurally embedded
or non-integrated. It is a
serious business approach
to Thaqeb Alserhan as more
business models start to
focus on these emerging
markets, such as the
architectural, interior, and
furniture and more.

APPROACH
How does Thaqeb Alserhan’s focus work?
Instructed and
directed by Director &
Professor Robert McKinney,
School of Architecture, Thaqeb
Alserhan was the first and
only student, at that year, in
developing and presenting
his graduation thesis without
a single conventional sketch
or drawing. It was a total
fifth year of computerized
development which
demonstrated the truth behind
his willingness love to accept
challenges to take his designs
into a new level.
	 Being in a such
situation at an early stage
of his architectural career,
Thaqeb Alserhan Carried on
this challenge at the same
rate which kept building up
his strong creativity, ability to
the good design judgment,
and the entrepreneurial spirit.
He realized the importance
of having his own Code of
Ethics at that early stage.
Written in 2001, he set a
self-governing line to be as
a professional architect and
by his self-ruling career to
recognize and respect the
intellectual property rights
of others. It is important to
preserve their ideas, designs,
and researches in giving them
the credit to their work if it
have been used or influenced.
Never, never, never take an
individual’s design, research
or idea and wrongfully credit
them to himself. Thaqeb
Alserhan’s attitude is the
dedication to his profession,
respect the teamwork, enjoy
the life of an architect, and
efficiently pushing the design
boundaries.
	 Time and money
are related in the world of
business. Speed and flexibility
are two important things at
the beginning of any given
project. Creating quick
flexible schematic design is
an excellent advantage for
striking deals. Inspirational
presentation is a principal
step in delivering the idea and
most of clients ask for these
kind of ideas, because it is
flexible, friendlier, and open-
end approach, which makes
them more comfortable to be
GET INSPIRED
AND EXPAND YOUR
KNOWLEDGE
>
engaged.
	 There are possibilities
that some people do not agree
with specific approach, yet
Thaqeb Alserhan managed to
prove, as in any race, speed
with the least amount of
errors is a winning card. The
B.O.T. Salmiya Sporting Club
is a good case to mention.
Winning that project for
Villamoda, out of the 36
real-estate companies and
design offices, was the result
of speed. We are talking
about the speed of readiness,
clearly reflected on the
speed of action, which result
in creating a physiological
setback to competitors. The
other related type of Thaqeb
Alserhan’s speed and flexibility
is the fluency in the “Design
Language”, eliminating all the
wasted time on putting design
together. Delay will cost time;
time will cost money.
	 The first step to
success, according to Thaqeb,
is by deeply examining the
client’s words, mood, behavior
and attractions enable to
transfer it into a captive visual
presentation. Engaging the
client’s emotions is a crucial
way to a qualified project.
	 Thaqeb Alserhan
approach to management
is way leaning toward the
leadership approach instead
of the boss approach as he
believes in the team and
building the team. It is upon
his burden to build the ideal
fitted team for any project
according to requirement and
needs, setting clear strategies,
motivate, monitoring
performance, and reducing
errors. The important reason
of choosing the “Leadership”
approach resulted from testing
both approaches through
his career and finding out
leadership approach reward
higher profit and better
efficiency. Goals, knowledge,
capabilities, personality, and
experience are important
words in Thaqeb Alserhan’s
daily checklist to seal deals
and execute contracts.
Returning clients is a clear
confirmation of the successful
approach as his very adaptive
to needs, carefully planning
projects, and raise expectation
within time frame and budget.
>
INFLUENCE
Where do Thaqeb Alserhan get his inspiration?
Inspired by the
words of his long beloved
Prince of Hearts, the late
Emir of Kuwait Sheikh Jaber
Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah
(1926 – 2006) on the talented
citizens of Kuwait, Thaqeb
Alserhan carried the burden
to translate these words into
deeds. It was a mission upon
him to take responsibility to
spread the knowledge and
experience that he gained
in his professional career,
helping others in need in his
own unique style. Sharing
knowledge is a key success.
	 Albert Einstein’s
quote which he stated that “
Imagination is more important
than knowledge” is another
key to Thaqeb Alserhan’s life
design approach. It is the
power of expanding and going
beyond. He utilized this line
to proof his theories. Another
inspirational quote by Albert
is “Anyone who has never
made a mistake has never
tried anything new”. This quote
made Thaqeb Alserhan rethink
design, and relook at it from
different angles. Rethinking
ideas, thoughts, and concepts
made him expand his
creativity. He believes in this
to invent the new. (Albert
Einstein, 1879-1955)
	 Architect Ludwig Mies
van der Rohe (1886- 1969), one
of the master architects and
one of the Bauhaus, once said:
“ Only an idea has the power
to spread so far”. This quote
is translated directly into the
star logo of E:T’s as it become
the core model of Thaqeb
Alserhan’s architectural life
and business approach.
	 Last, Thaqeb
Alserhan recognize the effort
of the unknown guys behind
designing and creating the
renown design software
which brought design into
this level of sophistication.
Without them, we couldn’t
reach this point. Through
their developed software,
they should be conceded as
influential.

  • 9. KEY P R O J E C T S I N I T I A T O R Architectural Developer Thaqeb Alserhan’s principal rule in his professional career is to clearly deliver his design method and vision to whom they seek this type of design approach.

  • 10. The Courtyard 1998 by Thaqeb Alserhan
  • 11. It is good to remember and look up for the old school days, at Fletcher’s courtyard, smelling the breeze of Louisiana, listening to what others say about their future designs, sharing ideas, pitching concepts. It is hard to forget these days, especially when you have that super-sized mosquito sucking the blood out of your arm. Ouch! Fletcher Hall, School of Architecture & Design, Louisiana
  • 12. “Only an Idea has the power to spread so far” Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
  • 14. Architecture has reached into a new level of sophistication due to the big revolution in the design software, expanding the business of design beyond the architectural fields. Since Thaqeb Alserhan’s graduation in 2001, he saw the urgent essential need to set a dedicated goal of having his own personal design approach and signature style. Since that early stage of his professional life, he was committed to his dedicated goal and to expose the uniqueness of elements by developing diverse architectural, interior, furniture, and the related designs, through the use of his signature style approach and his developed technique of space experience. SHOWCASE IN THE FIELDS OF ARCHITECTURE & BEYOND

PACE is founded in Kuwait City in 1968 by Mr Hamid Abdulsalam Shuaib and Partners. pace-kuwait.com
  • 16. The impact of oil discovery, and the clash between the old and the new, damaged the roots of the “Kuwaiti Elements” of Architecture. Kuwait’s architecture moved away from its heritage and lost its original value. The best spot to be in is the understanding of this culture. Today, Thaqeb Alserhan’s intent to push the Kuwaiti architecture forward by moving it toward the next level of design, currying its history without “the copying of the past”. Culture, art, and architecture cannot be separated. They work together as one history. Once you give less attention to one part, the other will weaken. Yet, a great number of local designers and architects insist on replicating the visualized traditions from the outer- side of effort instead of advancing it to the future generations.

Contracting, production, and solution design are great money making markets that can not be ignored. According to Thaqeb Alserhan, being an architect does not mean stick to building designs rather than exceeding the market to grab a market niche in what follows the architectural construction stage. There is, even if, no building without post-construction such as FF&E. It can be structurally embedded or non-integrated. It is a serious business approach to Thaqeb Alserhan as more business models start to focus on these emerging markets, such as the architectural, interior, and furniture and more.

  • 44. APPROACH How does Thaqeb Alserhan’s focus work?
  • 45. Instructed and directed by Director & Professor Robert McKinney, School of Architecture, Thaqeb Alserhan was the first and only student, at that year, in developing and presenting his graduation thesis without a single conventional sketch or drawing. It was a total fifth year of computerized development which demonstrated the truth behind his willingness love to accept challenges to take his designs into a new level. Being in a such situation at an early stage of his architectural career, Thaqeb Alserhan Carried on this challenge at the same rate which kept building up his strong creativity, ability to the good design judgment, and the entrepreneurial spirit. He realized the importance of having his own Code of Ethics at that early stage. Written in 2001, he set a self-governing line to be as a professional architect and by his self-ruling career to recognize and respect the intellectual property rights of others. It is important to preserve their ideas, designs, and researches in giving them the credit to their work if it have been used or influenced. Never, never, never take an individual’s design, research or idea and wrongfully credit them to himself. Thaqeb Alserhan’s attitude is the dedication to his profession, respect the teamwork, enjoy the life of an architect, and efficiently pushing the design boundaries. Time and money are related in the world of business. Speed and flexibility are two important things at the beginning of any given project. Creating quick flexible schematic design is an excellent advantage for striking deals. Inspirational presentation is a principal step in delivering the idea and most of clients ask for these kind of ideas, because it is flexible, friendlier, and open- end approach, which makes them more comfortable to be GET INSPIRED AND EXPAND YOUR KNOWLEDGE >

There are possibilities that some people do not agree with specific approach, yet Thaqeb Alserhan managed to prove, as in any race, speed with the least amount of errors is a winning card. The B.O.T. Salmiya Sporting Club is a good case to mention. Winning that project for Villamoda, out of the 36 real-estate companies and design offices, was the result of speed. We are talking about the speed of readiness, clearly reflected on the speed of action, which result in creating a physiological setback to competitors. The other related type of Thaqeb Alserhan’s speed and flexibility is the fluency in the “Design Language”, eliminating all the wasted time on putting design together. Delay will cost time; time will cost money. The first step to success, according to Thaqeb, is by deeply examining the client’s words, mood, behavior and attractions enable to transfer it into a captive visual presentation. Engaging the client’s emotions is a crucial way to a qualified project. Thaqeb Alserhan approach to management is way leaning toward the leadership approach instead of the boss approach as he believes in the team and building the team. It is upon his burden to build the ideal fitted team for any project according to requirement and needs, setting clear strategies, motivate, monitoring performance, and reducing errors. The important reason of choosing the “Leadership” approach resulted from testing both approaches through his career and finding out leadership approach reward higher profit and better efficiency. Goals, knowledge, capabilities, personality, and experience are important words in Thaqeb Alserhan’s daily checklist to seal deals and execute contracts. Returning clients is a clear confirmation of the successful approach as his very adaptive to needs, carefully planning projects, and raise expectation within time frame and budget. >
  • 48. INFLUENCE Where do Thaqeb Alserhan get his inspiration?
  • 49. Inspired by the words of his long beloved Prince of Hearts, the late Emir of Kuwait Sheikh Jaber Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah (1926 – 2006) on the talented citizens of Kuwait, Thaqeb Alserhan carried the burden to translate these words into deeds. It was a mission upon him to take responsibility to spread the knowledge and experience that he gained in his professional career, helping others in need in his own unique style. Sharing knowledge is a key success. Albert Einstein’s quote which he stated that “ Imagination is more important than knowledge” is another key to Thaqeb Alserhan’s life design approach. It is the power of expanding and going beyond. He utilized this line to proof his theories. Another inspirational quote by Albert is “Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new”. This quote made Thaqeb Alserhan rethink design, and relook at it from different angles. Rethinking ideas, thoughts, and concepts made him expand his creativity. He believes in this to invent the new. (Albert Einstein, 1879-1955) Architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886- 1969), one of the master architects and one of the Bauhaus, once said: “ Only an idea has the power to spread so far”. This quote is translated directly into the star logo of E:T’s as it become the core model of Thaqeb Alserhan’s architectural life and business approach. Last, Thaqeb Alserhan recognize the effort of the unknown guys behind designing and creating the renown design software which brought design into this level of sophistication. Without them, we couldn’t reach this point. Through their developed software, they should be conceded as influential. GET INSPIRED AND EXPAND YOUR KNOWLEDGE
