Located next to the Emirates Towers on Sheikh Zayed Road, it opens a gateway to the world 50 years from now, the landmark development will contribute to a better humanity and stronger global economy by demonstrating how next-generation solutions – incorporating everything from artificial intelligence to augmented reality – can enhance our lives.
UAE authorities described the building as an architectural and engineering marvel, confidently straddling the past and the future and applying advanced technology to traditional artforms.
It also ‘speaks Arabic’ – the facade is a canvas for the poetry of sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum rendered in the calligraphy of Mattar bin Lahej.
Of the three quotes enveloping the facade, one translates to: “The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it and execute it. It isn’t something you await, but rather create.”
The form is futuristic, with the building hoping to “open a new path away from the high-rise towers that dominate skylines everywhere,” especially in Dubai. The development was conceived by Killa Design and is composed of over 1,000 individual fiberglass and stainless-steel exterior elements.
Inside guests can expect to find immersive future environments that merge science and technology. Outside, the museum has a garden with 100 plant species reflecting the United Arab Emirates’ heritage and biodiversity.
Trees and plants, from ghaf and sidr, to palm and acacia trees, are all sprouting from the green plateau where the building stands.
Furthering a global intellectual movement, the museum is also the headquarters for the city’s Great Arab Minds initiative that aims to identify 1,000 exceptional Arab talents across key fields.
