Museum of the Future— Dubai, UAE

Completed in 2020, The Museum of the Future was designed to depict the unknown future– a “void.” The architectural vision of the “void” design is meant to represent what we don’t know yet and that the people who seek the unknown will continue to innovate and discover towards a better future. The complexity of the design lies in the conversion and transformation of this unseen vision of the unknown into a structural form.

This design can be broken into 3 main parts:

  1. The Green Hill— representing the earth, solidity, and permanence, rooted in place, time and history.
  2. The Building— representing the strength and artistry of mankind, shows the capability of mankind to create harmony with its surroundings and passion for artistic creation.
  3. The Void— representing innovation, the empty elliptical space within the building symbolically shows the openness of the unwritten future that is a driving inspiration for innovators.

Beyond the visual complexity of the Museum of the Future, it is complex structurally in its physical make up and the implementation of it. The design is a low carbon civic building constructed through parametric design, low-energy and water engineering solutions, passive solar architecture, and building integrated renewables.
